Well how do you define the term “Ethnostate” and what do you think the Palestinian cause is in contrast to that?

Of course museums are! Culture of Remembrance is a highly political field.

Stop blaming a museum in memory of a Jewish victim of the Holocaust.


No, you can’t just change the definition of a word because you’re (rightfully so) angry. Especially not a word that’s mostly defined by Jewish people.


Are you kidding me? The Anne Frank House is a fucking museum in memory of Anne Frank. Your allegations are not only absolutely baseless, but an insult to Anne Franks legacy.


Jewish people have lived in the levante for literal centuries and were displaced as well. In recent history the part of land which is now Israel was under British mandate for the longest time. I don’t want to say that Palestinians have no right to claim that land but Jewish people have at least an equivalent right to claim the same land. That’s basically the whole conflict. Therefore we need a two state solution or a one state solution in the sense that Palestinians and Jewish people can peacefully live together. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Jews_and_Judaism_in_the_Land_of_Israel


So Palestinians too? Or Kurds? What’s with Tibetans?


That’s giving a lot of leverage to assholes.


Why do you think I apologize genocide?


Depends of the type of Zionism you ask. Post-Zionism wants a multi-ethnic democratic Israel, Cultural Zionism doesn’t want a nation state at all and the contemporary Liberal Zionism is roughly in favor of a two state solution, so a sovereign Palestine state as well as equal rights for Arab citizen in Israel.
And yes I blame the world for conflating Zionism with the genocidal right-wing politics of the Israeli government because it’s simply lazy and not true. There are many historical and contemporary types of Zionism and only Religious and Revisionist Zionism are what Israels government is currently pushing.


How am I a supporter of the current Israel government? Please tell me because I never said that in any fucking way.


Great argument. Of course Israel is practicing colonialism, but that doesn’t make it the necessary definition of Zionism.


What’s about the Jewish people that have a desire to create a Jewish state that’s not colonial and/or genocidal? Because those are Zionists too.


That’s because different types of Zionism define Israel differently. Those right wing maniacs like Netanyahu and Smotrich are Religious and Revisionist Zionists and want the racist ideal of a Greater Israel while other Zionists define the goal of a Jewish state as accomplished when Israel was first founded.

Thanks for the rational reply. And I definitely don’t support the second definition and never said so. I just don’t like the baseless generalization of the term “Zionism” because it has more than one meaning.


Easy, just call the Anne Frank house “Zionist” and devalue whatever the say.


That’s such a dumb comparison. And what the heck are ‘Mossad talking points’ supposed to be? That’s simply absurd.


Hate to be that guy:
Today, Zionism is often seen in a negative light, and “Zionist” is regularly used as an insult. A common misconception is that Zionism is the same as colonizing Palestinian territories. That is not correct: at its core, Zionism means the aspiration for a Jewish state. At the same time, there are indeed settlers in Israel who seize Palestinian land, and the war in Gaza is often viewed in this context. It is important to distinguish between these settlers and the broader meaning of Zionism.

Thanks!


Hard to describe, it’s better to take a look at it.
