The concept of Zionism is what I reject for my Jewish friends on this planet. What is Zionism? It's the promotion of a secular Jewish STATE (political government) as the homeland for all Jews on this planet. This idea creates an ethnic homeland (STATE) for all/any Jews. It's an Apartheid idea as it promotes one ethnic group as a political entity (government) for all Jews. Personally, I find this concept as unacceptable for humanity and this concept would also be fully REJECTED by our last Messiah (Yeshua of Nazareth) IMO. Yeshua desired the Kingdom of his God to rule our planet, not a secular Jewish STATE. Yeshua would not approve of Zionism IMO.
All my Christian friends who support this Zionist State over in Israel should think more deeply about this idea. Zionism was promoted by a secular (Atheist) Jew who did not think of the spiritual implications of his idea. Theodore Herzl was an Austro-Hungarian Jewish journalist and political activist who was the father of modern political Zionism. Herzl formed the Zionist Organization and promoted Jewish immigration to Palestine in an effort to form a Jewish state. Wikipedia
The idea of a separate Jewish only State is totally anathema to the teaching of our last Messiah, Yeshua/Jesus. Yeshua taught the idea of brotherhood of all races and ethnic groups. Love your enemy and do good to them who persecute you (was the mindset of Messiah Yeshua). I have studied the history of this idea called Zionism. It started with Herzl and then got promoted by Great Britain (the Balfour Declaration). The Balfour Declaration was a public statement issued by the British government in 1917 during the First World War announcing its support for the establishment of a "national home for the Jewish people" in Palestine, then an Ottoman region with a small minority Jewish population.
After Britain dropped their Mandate over Palestine and allowed our United Nations to take charge of this issue this resulted in the idea of two States for this area of our planet (one for the Jews and one for the Palestinians). This idea was rejected by the Palestinians and we now live (after some 75 years) with a Zionist State which represents merely a small percentage of historical Jews. Zionism has flourished because of the money and military might of the USA. Yes, the USA has been the primary promoter/backer of this Zionist State. Has it worked? Absolutely not!
This current WAR over in the Middle East can not get resolved IMO given the MINDSET of our political leaders. Biden wants more weapons and money for this Zionist State (consisting of Netanyahu and his group of politicians). I witness a growing dislike for this Zionist State within our world community. My sense is that after this WAR situation gets more intense and disruptive, more CRITICAL thinkers will REJECT this idea of a Zionist State. Personally, I am Anti-Zionist but I am not Anti-Semitic. I love the common man/woman who have a Jewish culture (background). I find that most thinkers accept this reality.
The common Palestinians also have no problem with common Jews. The problem is the Zionist STATE. This governing body has occupied the land of historical Palestine and imprisoned the Palestinian people. This is the problem...not the common Jewish/Palestinian individual. Zionism must be eliminated so that the Kingdom Age can emerge (for all common people). The INDIVIDUAL must be supreme and the STATE must be eliminated. This was the mindset of our last Messiah (Yeshua/Jesus). I say it is also the mindset of our Creator God (Yahweh/Father). Nothing can improve UNTIL we rid the world of these corrupted political entities (called STATES). The INDIVIDUAL must be supreme if our world is to grow in peace, justice, prosperity, and happiness.
