Well things sure turned out in Israel like the European Zionists promised! They convinced millions of Jews the answer to pogroms & antisemitism was to violently expel Palestinians from their lands & set up a Jewish state. Political opponents of Zionism insisted such a state based on violence would be a death trap for Jews. So this promised land has now delivered 64 years of apartheid & ethnic cleansing of the resistant Palestinians. And here the government is dispensing gas masks & protection kits against chemical & biological warfare at a distribution center in Mevaseret Zion, on the outskirts of Jerusalem. Zionism is a cynical, elitist, & pessimistic ideology that has only increased human suffering for millions of people & has proven a dead end for ending antisemitism.
