Calling pre-1990s Israel socialist is like calling the Confederate States of America democratic.

Yeah, it was, except for a large disenfranchised population. If you count them as people too, then it's not. And don't come back at me with false distinctions about what was "Israel proper" versus the bantustans-- oh, sorry, "occupied territories." Those places have no real sovereignty.
