What is a Zionist? A) simply someone who believes Israel has the right to exist B) A + because it was historically Jewish land C) A + B + and because it was given to Jews by God D) A + B + C + and no one else should live there but Jews
This poll was inspired by a conversation w my friend @jay_shapiro
I always thought it just meant A, but obviously ppl define it differently. I think that’s part of the problem...we are all using the same word, but we have different definitions in our minds. Same w ‘feminism’.
The d one is an extremely racist statement
Well, then, so far 22% of ppl think that Zionists are racist
The original Zionists (circa 1890) just wanted a homeland. It didn't have to be in they Middle East
The options considered at the time included in Australia and China
To add a variation I would hear growing up. E) The Jews have a right to their own homeland which in theory could be anywhere (i.e. a part of East Africa/Uganda which was the 2nd choice).
If it was just people believing in the A and B answers, and if the same was true on the Palestinian side, peace would have been achievable a long time ago. As Hitchens said, “religion poisons everything”.
There are no "different definitions." There is correct and incorrect.
I’m super surprised more people haven’t said “C”.
