Zionism was created by Theodor Herzel and others in the late 19th century and in that era it was commonplace to be colonialist, to be racist, to be super-nationalist, to adore the nation-state - so the idea of France for the French, Germany for the Germanics, and then some nation-state for the Jews. This all formed the basis for Zionism.
There is no “National Judaism.” There is Zionism and there is Judaism, and they are completely different. And so, you cannot connect Zionism with “highly ethical” You can only connect the words, aggressive, oppressive, stealing, robbing, killing, with Zionism.
Zionists have given up everything that has to do with humanity, with empathy, for one thing: the state. The “blood and soil” just like the Nazis. But not”highly ethical."
Because formerly an anti-Semite was somebody who hated Jews because they were Jews, and due to their Jewish nature and their race…Nowadays an anti-Semite is someone who is hated by a certain type of Zionist. The Nazi leader Goring said, “ I determine who is a Jew” And so the Zionists determine who is an anti-Semite.
I can only weep to hear Dieter Graumann, a voice for German Jews who live in Germany declare support for the racist Zionist Nationalistic and condemn all who speak out against the genocide in Gaza and the West Bank as anti-Semites. This is a tragic distortion of what it means to be an anti-Semite and a manipulation of the memory of the Nazi Holocaust.
