Israel/Palestine

(8,170 posts)You make objectively false claims in support of the OP
There is the false claim that Anti-Zionism means opposing the existence of the Jewish state. That is a lie because many Israeli citizens, both Jewish and Palestinian, oppose the current ruling ideology of Israel but wish the separate state to continue. Zionist ideology proposes the primacy of the Jewish claims to lands in Palestine and that all state policy should be in furtherance of the sole occupation of Israel by those of Jewish faith and/or ancestry. Zionism denies the claims of the displaced (of whatever faith). Extreme religious Zionism wishes the establishment of a theocratic government, like that claimed to have existed in the time of the Judges.
Another falsehood was, essentially, that there are Jews who hate their Jewish identity because they oppose Zionism and hence are anti-semitic. Well Zionists would claim that wouldn't they. The existence of Israeli politicians who oppose the aims of the current ruling clique in Israel is an embarrassment and hence the Zionists make their opponents out to be race traitors.
Next please remember that anti-semitism existed long before Zionism and hence being anti Zionist does not of necessity mean being anti-semitic.
Lastly please order your thoughts, place them in paragraphs and try to provide supporting arguments. Picking apart your incoherent rant was difficult and not at all instructive
