The Real timschochet 6,679 Posted June 12, 2024 Zionism is the belief that the Jewish people deserve a national home for themselves, and that home is the State of Israel. Zionism does not seek to relocate the Palestinian people, or any other people. It’s not fascist. It does not deny the rights of any other people, or the right of Palestinians to establish their own state. Zionism is a secular idea. It was originated by Theodor Herzl, a secular Jew who did not practice religion. The State of Israel was founded by secular Jews, essentially atheists, who regarded Judaism as a nationality and not a religion. One can be pro-Zionist without supporting the current government of Israel. One can be anti-Zionist without being anti-Semitic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We know that’s the Zionist desire because that’s literally what Zionists did, wage a terror campaign of murder and displacement to take over Palestine.
