Read post 42, and its from Wiki of a poll taken in 2001. Your PM is secular. I am not saying you don't believe in God how would I know, if Daniel does I have no idea, but many Jews are secular. Zionism is a political movement, not a Godly movement. Look at all the bloodshed once again spilling in Jerusalem since the Jews have returned, and that is the will of God, certainty not the God I believe in. Everything you stand for, I imagine , were you born there? and your kids? I was born here and I care about this country as well. I find it funny that some Jews , the orthodox ones , do not believe in Zionism and then we have non Jews who believe in Zionism. I don't care, but you have people locked up illegally and you have yourself an outdoor prison, with a warden.
Our prime minister is secular, yet just weeks ago in his speech he said that may God's will it'll be, that Israel will win the good fight, and added the words of our Rabbis- "The enernal nation is not afraid of a long journey".
Zionism is currently a political and national movement, and it is rooted in the Torah; God himself told Abraham to leave the land he sat in, to move to the Promised Land; The first Zionist the world had ever known was Abraham. Bloodshed was always in history, Christians should know better than anyone about bloodshed, and Jerusalem was always under fights.
I wasn't born here, no; But my mother was. And her mother before her, and her mother before her, back to the end of the 1800's. My children will be born here and so will theirs. That's the chain you cannot cut.
Most of the orthodox don't believe in Zionism because by their thinking, it's detaching from Judaism. the rest, maybe 10%, believe Zionism is against God because the Messiah is not yet here.
The orthodox who are against that are minority, as well
