Are there any Jewish people out there who don't support Zionism?

Question

Please give your reasons for either supporting it or not supporting it. Thank you.

People, please elaborate, one line answers don't make sense!

Answer 1

Hey Mister,

I was always under the impression that all Jews supported Zionism with the terror and hate inflicted on the Palestinians and other middle eastern countries by Israel i thought all Jews were the same until i heard about Jews against zionism.

This website will show you that there are jews that do not acknowledge Israel and what is stands for. x

Answer 2

There have always been Jews in this area of the world. They have never left the land. So, yes---it is theirs.

However, there are some ultra Orthodox who say Israel is not to be until the Messiah comes, so they are not Zionists. What really makes me upset is that some of these people live in Israel, accept government help and support, and give nothing back to the state. This is hypocrisy.

Answer 3

The majority of Zionists are American Christians, including Pat Robertson, Jerry Falwell, John Hagee (super Zionist), George Bush, and nearly every popular media evangelist or preacher.

The number of Jews opposing Zionism is unknown but more Jews live outside Israel than those who do. Which demonstrates most Jews do not support Israel or Zionism.

Answer 4

the ones I have spoken to, most of them went to Hebrew school and you can get only so much logic out of them before indoctrination takes over and they refuse to see any other points of view

If I mention Germany and a holocaust I have to take a seat and listen, but if I mention the US or Isreal doing thier invasions and attacking other nations that oppose thier own faith, I get a subject change or I have to leave

if a delusion is easily seen about religions they don't believe, why can't they use this logic to see thier own?

is it because seeing it would mean it would no longer live but die, and isn't this part of the creation of myths and religion, to incorporate self reproducing mechanisms that are circular and defensive against ideas that refute it?

I have seen SECULAR Jews or ethnic Jews who are not religious (a minority) that it's thier race but not belief

same as Iraqis being secular but not Islamic or Al Qaeda, some professing christianity also getting killed and rounded up under the assumption by being in Iraq they are terrorists and evil muslims or Islamists

Answer 5

I saw many many Jews - more than I've ever seen in my whole life up til then - protesting Israel's attack on Lebanon in Washington DC. I'm not sure which subgroups they belonged to.

Of course, protesting one criminal act doesn't mean they don't support Zionism in general.

Answer 6

I support Zionism....


Zionism: a policy for establishing and developing a national homeland for Jews in Palestine [syn: Zionism] 2: a movement of world Jewry that arose late in the 19th century with the aim of creating a Jewish state in Palestine [syn: Zionism, Zionist movement]


Why is it, that Christians have countries of their own, Italy, Greece, and many more,
Why is it, that Buddhists have a countries of their own, India and more,
Why is it, that Muslims have countries of their own, Afghanistan, Iran, and many more,

But when it comes to the Jews, they arent allowed to have a single country without it being attacked constantly, NOT ONE.

I support Zionism, because its the only movement that gives us a home.

Answer 7

There's a group of Jews (including Rabbis) called Naturei Karta (sp???) who are strongly anti-zionist. They make friends with people like Hamas, Hezbollah etc. Even with terrorists like Yasser Arafat.
needless to say, they're despised by the majority of Jews.

Answer 8

I know some

Answer 9

Mister,
By certain definitions, God is even a Zionist. By certain definitions.
