              Really? Ok. I don’t have a problem with what he said there. Palestinians have a right to live, the attacks in Gaza are unacceptable and should cease immediately, regardless of the horrible attacks on October 7th. I would go further and call it a genocide, but I can understand why a politician would avoid incendiary language during an election cycle.

              Does that make me a Zionist, too?

                Do you know what is the definition of a Zionist?

                  I thought I did, but you seem to be using it differently. Tell me yours.

                    From Wikipedia:

                    Zionism is an ethno-cultural nationalist movement that emerged in Europe in the late 19th century and aimed for the establishment of a Jewish state through the colonization of a land outside of Europe

                    Zionists are people who think there should be a Jewish Ethno-State

                    Anti-Zionists are people who oppose the existence of a Jewish Ethno-state. There have been anti-zionist Jews since as long as there have been Zionist Jews.

                    The article you linked-to said that he wanted a 2-State solution. That, by definition, makes him a Zionist.

                    Edit: why is this being down voted? I’m not stating an opinion…
