Zionism defined
I saw this in another thread, and I think it deserves its own post.

I would modify it slightly:
Zionism simply means the belief that the Jewish people , *like all other peoples,* should have a home and be sovereign in their ancestral land.
If you:
1. Support the right of other peoples (the French, Turks, Japanese, Haitians, Egyptians, etc.) to have a home and be sovereign in their ancestral land, but
1. But are anti-Zionist, the. You are
1. By definition, anti-Jewish.
To be anti-Zionist is to say that the Jews alone should be denied a right you think belongs to all other people.
The only case I can imagine where being anti-Zionist isn’t anti-Jewish is where you oppose the rights of all peoples to be sovereign in their ancestral land.
