Hi anybody below, would that make zionism just a human idea, or do you think the jews think zionism is inspired divinely.

According to Moses Mendelssohn (1729-86), Jews would be accepted if they would come out from under the restraints of the Talmud and conform to Western culture. In his day, he became one of the Jews most respected by the Gentile world. However, renewed outbursts of violent anti-Semitism in the 19th century, especially in “Christian” Russia, disillusioned the movement’s followers, and many then focused on finding a political refuge for the Jews. They rejected the idea of a personal Messiah who would lead the Jews back to Israel and began to work on establishing a Jewish State by other means. This then became the concept of Zionism: “the secularization of, Jewish messianism,” as one authority puts it.
The murder of some six million European Jews in the Nazi-inspired Holocaust (1935-45) gave Zionism its final impetus and gained much sympathy for it worldwide. The Zionist dream came true in 1948 with the establishment of the State of Israel, which brings us to Judaism in our day.
Simply put, Judaism is the religion of a people. Therefore, a convert becomes part of the Jewish people as well as the Jewish religion. It is a monotheistic religion in the strictest sense and holds that God intervenes in human history, especially in relation to the Jews. Jewish worship involves several annual festivals and various customs. Although there are no creeds or dogmas accepted by all Jews, the confession of the oneness of God as expressed in the Shema, a prayer based on Deuteronomy 6:4 (JP), forms a central part of synagogue worship: “HEAR, O ISRAEL: THE LORD OUR GOD, THE LORD IS ONE.”

Zionist is a way of thinking of the jews. They want all the jews united and make a country for their sake. they have do it, it's israel now and israel is expanding their teritories now. The major cause was mr Hitler that hunted them and put them in concentrate camp. How many jews? almost around the world. Even they are not the citizen israel, they could support them with their money, or political help like American act in United Nations.

We should step up
strugle against Zionism
I have been a follower of Radio Islam internet site for three years, and I think it is time for all of us who love this site to sit down, reflect and think of ways to further promote our struggle against Zionism. For there is always room for improvement in every human effort.
I think we need to defined our objectives more specifically, in short it should be the return of the rights of Christian and Muslim inhabitants of Palestine and for the home return of those who have been displaced and return of the land of the Arabs occupied by the Zionist racist state.
In Radio Islam We have a great platform to step up struggle against Zionism, I think all of us should try to contribute in opinion to achieve the following:
1)The return of the displaced Palestinian People to their houses and land.
2) The end of racist rules, laws and practices that favours Jews against Christians and Muslims in what is called the state of "Israel. (The laws concerning migration, citizenship, property ownership, housing subsidies....etc.)
What the Jews do to the Christians and Muslims of Palestine is motivated by the Zionist ideology, and there fore it is this evil (Zionist ideology) that we should focus in our fight and it should be exposed as:
1) A racist movement.
2) A colonialist settling movement from Europeans groups of people with Jewish religion that is displacing the non Jews from Palestine.
3) To a lesser degree we should also focus on the continuos and on going aggression of the Zionist State against Arab countries.
These are the sources of evil in the Zionist movement. And we should be very cleaver in exposing them.
We should make it very embarrassing for any decent person to defend Zionism. Then and only then it is possible to make the Jews loose faith in Zionism and to transform the state of Israel into a civilized state of all it's inhabitants not a state for the Jews coming form Europe or else where.
If that transformation takes place then we have no quarrel with Jews.
I know it is difficult not to hate your enemy Jew or other wise, it is i fact our natural right to hate Jews because they are occupying our land. But it does not mean we should take that course without thinking. We should look at what is the best way to achieve our stolen rights. It is not practical to make all people of the world hate Jews, and not practical to make a Jew hate him self, it is very practical and it is our duty to make a Jew hate Zionism.
What is important is for us to get our rights, that is possible through discrediting Zionism, just as the people of South Africa obtained their rights when the Apartheid ideology was discredited and the whites abonded the racism.
That is why it is important to make people know the real Zionism, we should make a do or die effort to defeat Zionism intellectually.
Radio Islam deserves a credit for establishing a site like what ever praise we might give it is not good enough to express what is in our hearts.
God bless you all who fight for our rights.

Well I think you should Google that;
I can tell you, jew is not a race, it's a religion. However when it comes to the ZOG machine they will play the race card.
It causes things to get sticky semantic wise.
