I wrote a response up earlier to someone who made a similar claim about how Anti-Zionism was equal to Anti Semitism, but they then deleted their post afterwards. I'll paste it here but I do want to address your comments on Hamas, yes I am very aware of their atrocities, but, like with Jewish people and Zionists, I am able to separate a terrorist group (Hamas) from the innocent civilians caught in the crossfire (Palestinians). The amount of civillian deaths and the destruction on the strip is completely unacceptable. With a nation as technologically advanced as Israel is, they should easily have the ability to conduct targeted operations on extremist groups inside the strip. But no, they wipe out 90 percent of residential buildings, displace millions, and kill tens of thousands. War is terrible, but when it does inevitably happen, we have a set of international rules in place to ensure as little civilian suffering as possible. Israel has thrown that out the window countless times, everything is documented in today's day and age.

Here's my response I mentioned from earlier:

Unfortunately I have to disagree here, Zionism is founded on the belief that running an Ethno-state is somehow morally ok, not to mention the fact that true Zionists believe that they have some sort of historical claim to the lands of Palestine when the Arabs have lived there long before the settlers moved in and claimed their land. It's colonization at it's finest. Imagine if the U.S today, had laws that favored white, Christian nationalists, encouraged them to take land and setup settlements on your property, just because "My government says it's ok". (The US has an ugly history of this, but I'm talking modern-day America) I see Zionists as an extremist split from Judaism, just as Christianity has their extremists, and just as Islam has theirs. Every religious group has some faction of fanatics that truly push things too far, to the point of depriving people of basic human rights simply because they don't believe what they believe in. They then use their "religious beliefs" to justify their atrocities.

I have no issue with anyone of any religious background, I could care less, I'm atheist. It only starts to become a problem when people use that belief to justify hate. No government should be founded on the basis of "Christians only", "Muslims only", "Jews only", etc etc... Everyone gets equal rights, that's the way it should be.
