Links relating to Israel

Travel

Israeli Ministry of Tourism--very cheesy site, be warned.
Palestinian Ministry of Tourism--covers Palestinian controlled areas like Bethlehem, Jericho, etc.
EL AL Israel Airlines--Great security, 'interesting' service
Palestinian Airlines--a very young airline, still flying twin propellor planes
Egged--Israel's national bus company. Great search functions, but only in Hebrew.

The Jerusalem Post online

Kibbutzim to which you can apply directly to volunteer

Kibbutz Dalia, where I volunteered (this kibbutz is very isolated, be warned)

Peace and human rights

B'Tselem, an Israeli human rights organization
Shalom Achshav/Peace Now
Gush Shalom/Peace Bloc: founded by bold activist Uri Avnery

Politics and government

Parties I like:

Israeli Labour Party
Meretz: Israel's social democratic party
CHADASH: the democratic front for peace and equality

Parties I don't like:

The Likud Party--In Hebrew.
The National Union

Political bodies I would love to like, but can't because they run dictatorships:
