      Zionism isn’t a land, it’s an ideology that created their ingrained racist attitude that they are the master race “Chosen People” and it’s ok to mock Palestinian suffering and treat them and others as lesser things. It’s pretty gross, and the surveys of the people show this ideology or racism is rampant there.

        There are people who see things as you describe, but that’s not inherent in Zionism; just the idea that Jews should have the ability to engage in full political participation through having their own nation.

          Many people have already written books on where it came from, what it stands for, and how it spreads a belief of superiority of the “chosen People” that is where they are not to marry non-Jews. They even went as far as to give Ethiopian women birth control while in Israel, a way to not muddy their “chosen people” status with that unholy melanin. If you have a version of Zionism that is anti-racist and inclusive of all people, I think many people would like to hear that.

            Again, there are hugely different strains of Zionism. By lumping them all together, you’re effectively convincing people who might be in a place to stop the modern settler movement that you’re planning to kill them, and guaranteeing that it continues.

              Do you think I am planning to kill someone, or you are saying that anyone who doesn’t know this Zionism you are talking about exists that it puts them at risk.? What is the name of this Zionism you are talking about that is pushing for Jews to marry who they love, and free Palestine, and a 2 state compromise? We label all kinds of people in the US different things when they come from the same places originally.

                  Hamas is a terrorist organization, that is what terrorists do, please reference the WTC for innocents being killed. Or the kids in our schools shot up by right-wing conservative domestic terrorists. Cartels I would also argue are terrorists in Latin America, what isn’t terrorists is UN nations. Again, what is this Zionism branch that is inclusive, pro-inter marriage and anti-racist beliefs?

                    Hamas is also the government of Gaza. Which is why their attitudes and their supporters attitudes matter a lot.
