For those who share my view that the Jews as a people have a right to self-determination, Zionism as a national movement of the Jewish people is the embodiment of this very right, which its opponents want to deny.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Zionism demands a publicly recognized and legally secured homeland in Palestine for the Jewish people. This platform is unchangeable.
Everyone who supports Israel is a Zionist.
Extol Jewish virtue, modern Zionism and the Israeli Defense Forces.
When modern political Zionism emerged around the turn of the twentieth century, most Orthodox Jews opposed it.
I am proud of religious Zionism. I am proud of the members of religious Zionism because it is a true ideological public.
Not all Modern Orthodox Jews, at the present juncture, identify with what the Israeli government does. In Israel many religious Zionists strongly oppose the government because of the disengagement.
I am not against Israel, I am against Zionists.
I was not raised a Zionist, but a socialist, as were most Jews before the Holocaust.
I don't think that when Zionism began there was a claim that we were losing - even in part - our capacity to contribute to other peoples.
Alone of prejudices, anti-Zionism is sacrosanct. How very dare we distinguish the motivation of one sort from another? Or question, in any instance, an anti-Zionist's good faith? In fact, what determines whether anti-Zionism is anti-Semitic is the nature of it.
