The Zapatistas themselves reject the Anarchist characterization.
@Genghis_Kon Called Kibbutzim Left-Zionist anarchist cells. Zionism is a nationalist movement and it's my understanding that that is antithetical to anarchism. In contrast to the EZLN kibbutzim do not struggle against the Zionist state but are well established and interwoven into a Zionist society.
Kibbutzim today are glorified gated communities. I don't know why you think they are relevant in any way.
Edit: Furthermore you'll have a tough time convincing an Arab like me to take the claim seriously that a group of Europeans who move to a british colony in the Arab world to set up their own society separate from the indigenous population is socialist, anarchist or leftist in anyway.
