I am just curious about the historical significance and association of Israel with Judaism.
To go further there is a difference between “Zionism” and the way they go about it. I have no problem with the state of Israel per se, and I even think they have the right to defend themselves, but I think the way they treat the Palestinians is terrible.
This is HN. Normally you ask HN questions. There are various places to seek this information. E.g. Twitter (X), because the question is not technical or scientific or even facts based question and may create flame wars.
No they’re not. But they are often wrongly attributed by malicious parties.
Israeli top officials (Netanyahu) will say someone is an anti-semite when they are anti Israel / anti-Zionism. Because we all widely agree anti semitism is bad but do not so much agree on anti zionism being bad, given the genocide they’re perpetrating of course.
In general I think mostly extremists on any side will misuse the terms but if you explain the terms and ask the average person they will not think they are the same thing.
