But if you are not Jewish, would they even allow you into kibbutz?

From the 1940s kibbutz mainly attracted young jews on Aliya. However from the 1960s young idealistic westerners starting coming in droves and they were enthusiastic and made to feel welcome.
But some Westerners are Jewish, and you say you aren't. So maybe Jewish Westerners are allowed while other ones aren't. At least thats what I would expect.
Yes, I think that might be correct, Kibbutz near the west bank or Gaza might be run exclusively by Jewish people. Those areas are more prone to incursions/terrorism so might be off limits to foreigners.
I wasn't even talking about terrorism. I was talking about Jewish culture where they don't allow non-Jews in.
And its not about "foreigners". Some foreigners are Jewish. In fact, they have what is called "right of return" where foreigners that are Jewish automatically get granted citizenship in Israel.
So since kibbutz is a Jewish endeavor, I would assume that they would allow Jews (both citizens and foreigners) but won't allow non-Jews. But I didn't look any of it up, thats just an assumption based on the general knowledge of how the Jews operate.
