The person who is considered the father of modern Zionism is Theodor Herzl (b. 1860). He developed his ideas concerning a new form of Zionism in the late 19th century. He was reacting to what he thought was French antisemitism resulting of the Dreyfus Affair.

If you believe what you hear on the news and media, you would think there is an entity called a Palestinian people, who lived in a country/state/area called Palestine since Canaanite/ Biblical/ Muslim times. You would believe the myth that the Israelis occupied "Palestine" in 1967. You would believe that the Palestinians want the occupiers out of "their land." And of course you would believe that they are entitled to do whatever it takes to get their land back. No? No. Here are the facts.
Who are the Palestinians? The Palestinians are Arabs. They have no historical, national or cultural identity distinct from other Arabs of the region. Most of them came into Palestine in search of economic opportunities after World War 1 when the British and the Jews began to build up a land that was moribund.
What is Palestine? When the Romans conquered Judea, they renamed it Palestine. Since then, no occupying power ever made it an independent state or established a capital in Jerusalem. Under the Ottoman Empire, it was part of the province of Syria.
After World War I, the area was mandated to Britain to establish a Jewish national home. Instead, in 1922, Britain split off 75% of Palestine to establish the Emirate of Transjordan, as a throne for the Arabian Hashemite family.
The UN decided to split the rest of Palestine between Jews and Arabs. In 1948, five Arab armies attacked the newborn State of Israel. Transjordan annexed the area intended for an Arab state, and renamed itself the Kingdom of Jordan, calling the annexed area the West Bank. Egypt took over Gaza. No Arab suggested making the West Bank and/or Gaza into yet another Arab state until 1967, when Israel was again attacked by the Arabs and took these areas.
The so-called "Palestinian nationalism" tries to picture itself as distinct from Arab nationalism. That "Palestinian nationalism" developed only in 1964 as a separate nationalism in an attempt to counter Jewish nationalism. The so-called Palestinians would like to control the entire territory known until 1948 as Palestine.
Whether or not she chooses to exercise the right, Israel owns the West Bank by right of conquest. Before 1967, the last previous legal owner was the Ottoman Empire. And Turkey, heir to the Ottomans, has never asked for it back.
