Discussion center

The purpose of the discussion center is to provide the missing information and a channel to self-expression to the people who feel that our society has come to a dead-end, that the current ideology no longer unites us, that many problems are the consequence of a systemic crisis in Israeli society.

We believe that through open discussion we can develop a new, free of the stereotypes, sight to the Israeli reality, to find the uniting us values, to find the point of a new consciousness, which undoubtedly will replace the current Israeli consciousness that erode society from inside.

We don't provide any propaganda. Our task is to debunk myths and provide the facts.

We want to reach elusive thing. On the one hand, this is a club with a warm, friendly atmosphere, where participants feel comfortable, despite the differences in views on certain issues. On the other hand, we would like the members of our meetings to take responsibility for changing the situation and to get actively involved in social activities, forming a new consciousness.
