Zionism, in a nutshell is the support for the establishment of a homeland for Jewish people in the land of Palestine. It is a fundamental belief of Zionists that the land of Jerusalem belongs to the Jewish people.
One of the five points of the "Jerusalem Program" that was drawn up in 1968 by the 28th Zionist Congress is:
"The strengthening of the State of Israel which is based on the prophetic vision of justice and peace"
"prophetic vision of justice and peace"?? Lets say for a moment there is a God who has indeed promised the land of Palestine to the Jews, why can't the Jews have faith in their God's word?? "prophetic vision of justice and peace?" For who??!! Why are you killing your brothers to obtain something your God has promised you?? Really? Is it worth it? Is it working? Where is your justice and peace? Do you think you would be closer to peace if you weren't constantly pushing the boarders of God given land?
Do this many Jews believe God is on their side in the conflict with the region they are illegally occupying?? Really? What kind of God is that? Fear of being labeled an "anti-semite" and general sympathy for Jews in a post-Hitler era causes far too many to turn their back on the atrocities which are continuously committed by Israeli's "defense"... To quote Noam Chomsky, "You cannot defend yourself when you are militarily occupying somebody else's land, call it what you like, it's NOT defense."

Without further ado ...
