What is 'Zionism'?

[BS Filter]

Zionism is a Muslim propaganda invention to portray Israel as the aggressor and oppressor of Muslims. It's a lie.

no, Zionism exists. It might have been misused to create a false impression of Israel, but it certain exists.

Yes, it exists. Never said it didn't. Putting your country first is a good thing. Iran will accept Israel as soon as this current fascist regime is replaced.

He did not criticize any specific Israel policy in that quote. He negated the very right of Jewish people to determine their own fate.

While I won't try to speak for CrusaderFrank, my impression is that his reference to "Zionism" in that context is the ugly, mutant, warmongering monster that Netan-yahoo and the Likud party have turned it into.

Self-determination isn't up for grabs...It's the hijacking of that ethos for questionable (at best) geopolitical purposes that is the issue.

they haven't changed the meaning of Zionism. They just have different methods for achieving it.

"geopolitical purposes"? LOL

Ultimately, it’s not up to me, it never was and never will be. My opinion is just my opinion.

The Zionists will have to account for their arrogance and depravity in the name of a beautiful religion, the wellspring from which Islam and Christianity flowed.

You think the Creator wants us to “bless” a nation dedicated to mass murder, infanticide and genocide? That’s not the Creator I know!

I think the creator wants you to focus on facts and not silly buzz words, clarity and not name calling.

As it will be for every human that has sinned, yet you only single out one identifiable group to beat on.

It's kind of humorous observing people dig their own holes.

In time...

You repeat the propaganda of inbred savages still living in the seventh century who kill their wives and daughters for "honor".

Is that what you really want for the world?

You're confused. Israel isn't the nation dedicated to mass murder, infanticide and genocide. The Creator is a Jew.

Sure it was based on the actions of Israel. It is surprising that people don't understand the use of disinvestment, nor the successes those actions have had. It all started with South Africa because have no doubt, successful disinvestment campaigns here put an end to Apartheid. Funny, seems they are attempted to do the same thing with Israel.

And yes, there are successes. Norway's Two trillion dollar wealth fund, the largest in the world, recently dumped Caterpillar over Caterpillar selling to Israel.

The campaign is based on nothing but ignorance and bigotry and not on any actions of Israel, and it is no different from other anti Jewish campaigns that have taken place over the centuries, long before there was a modern state of Israel. This is apparently difficult for slow learners like yourself to understand.

In The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Zion is "The Pure in Heart".

Zion​

• See also Enoch; New Jerusalem

The pure in heart (D&C 97:21). Zion also means a place where the pure in heart live. The city built by Enoch and his people that was eventually taken to heaven because of righteousness was named Zion (D&C 38:4; Moses 7:18–21, 69). In the latter days a city named Zion will be built near Jackson County, Missouri (United States of America), to which the tribes of Israel will gather (D&C 103:11–22; 133:18). The Saints are counseled to build up Zion wherever they are living in the world.

• The city of David was called Zion, 1 Kgs. 8:1.
• Out of Zion shall go forth the law, Isa. 2:2–3 (Micah 4:2; 2 Ne. 12:2–3).
• The Redeemer shall come to Zion, Isa. 59:20.
• I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion, Jer. 3:14.
• In mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, Joel 2:32 (Obad. 1:17).
• Blessed are they who shall seek to bring forth my Zion, 1 Ne. 13:37.
• The daughters of Zion are haughty, 2 Ne. 13:16 (Isa. 3:16).
• Wo be unto him that is at ease in Zion, 2 Ne. 28:19–25.
• Seek to bring forth and establish the cause of Zion, D&C 6:6 (D&C 11:6).
• Him have I inspired to move the cause of Zion in mighty power for good, D&C 21:7.
• The New Jerusalem shall be called Zion, D&C 45:66–67.
• Independence, Missouri, is the place for the city of Zion, D&C 57:1–3.
• A scourge remaineth upon the children of Zion until they repent, D&C 84:58.
• The Lord called his people Zion, because they were of one heart and one mind, Moses 7:18–19.
• Zion (the New Jerusalem) will be built upon the American continent, A of F 1:10.

Yes. They're just plain ignorant.

Jews wanting to defend themselves against getting killed offends him. That's why he supports measures to punish them and make them easier to kill.
