Tiyul Chalutzim- Kfar Tavor + Kinneret

On the Chalutzim Tiyul, we learned about the 3 aliyot. The first of the aliyot were farmers fleeing antisemitism. This aliyot is often labeled as the agriculture aliyah. The second aliyah was fueled by further antisemitism and violent acts called Pogroms, which killed many jews in Russia. These jews made the HaShomer, which later became the IDF. The second aliyah revolved a lot around defense of the new land, rather than agriculture. The third aliyah could have been a result of the Balfour Declaration and success of the previous two aliyot. Those in the third aliyah were mainly chalutzim, or pioneers who built up the infrastructure in Israel.

Later in the Tiyul, we went to the cemetary of the Kinneret. The grave of Revka represented a lot of hope to me as her poems were about love found while in Israel. What were your impressions of the chalutzim and their actions?
