The Left Front was a coalition of three groups that ran in the 1944 elections to the Assembly of Representatives in Palestine: Hashomer Hatzair (The Young Guard), Haliga Hasocialistit (The Socialist League), Poalei Zion Smol (Workers of Zion-Left). In 1973, another, different coalition of political groups used the same name in its campaign in the elections to the Histadrut

Yoram,
To begin, I do not expect you to write a long detailed history of Hashomer or Left Front. One word responses are fine.Just like testifying in court.
OK...I made your changes BUT...I am still confused.
Q: The original text that came in with this poster said it was Hashomer.
Yes? No? What original text?
Q: I think the Left Front and Hashomer are two very different puppies, yes? Yes.
Q: Here is another "Left Front" poster I have categorized with Hashomer. Am I confusing two different groups? Yes.
