A Zionist is one whom believes in restoring the full state of Isreal. This means that King Solomens temple needs to be rebuilt as well as all of Isreal restored to the Isrealites. This started in the late 30's early 40's when the Jews were leaving Europe because of Hitler. I personaly belive in it. I feel they rightfully deserve that land back because it was theres in biblical times. According to the bible they will recieve it all back and be able to rebuild the temple. This is a good thing as well as a bad thing. They will be able to rebuild their temple, but according to the bible the Anti-Christ will take and reign in there to proclaim himself as God.

So, what's so bad about the definition? I don't understand your issue.
