He is also, philosophically, a supporter of free markets and not fond of government intrusion. Still, he says, Israel is “a Western country and we embrace the idea of individualism here. But there are some areas where the kibbutz [collective] approach makes the most sense. ”33 Israelis have accepted a trade-off.

The National Water Carrier was a feat of imagination and daring, requiring engineering innovation and a variety of financing vehicles, including one that led to riots and deep divisions that took years to heal.
