Zionism is a political cult not founded on reality. To claim that mostly Europeans who practice the Jewish religion can colonize the land of others based on 2000 year old myths is racist since these 'white' Europeans claim superiority over the natives who live there and have a devine right to replace them. This is nothing more then the latest manifestation of long standing European Colonialim which has been going on from the Pilgrims to the Conquistadors to Andrew Jackson to the Boers. Zionism was invented by European Jews who (like the Boers) decided they should carve their own colony out of a non-European place. Since an alleged motivation for the creation of Israel was to give European displaced Jews a place to live after WWII (there were millions of non-Jews also 'displaced') - it seems 'Israel' should have been created within Germany since most blamed the Germans for the Holocaust and the social disruption caused by WWII. If you deny that Israel has a religious / ethnic test for immigrant citizenship, please take the time to read the Israeli papers for a few days and you will see the controversy over who is an 'acceptable' Jew for citizenship discussed almost daily. You may recall the huge controversy in Israel over the mass immigration of Russian Jews - many of whom were accused of not being really Jews. However the Zionists were so eager to have white European immigrants come to Israel that they conferred Jewish status on many who had questionable Jewish background. Even those who had no obvious Jewish connection were 'found' to have at least one 'Jewish' Grandparent. Non-Jews are permitted to come to Israel - someone has to do the low wage work and the Palestinians are not welcome right now. Most now come from the Phillipines or other third world countries on temporary worker visas - they are not permitted to apply for citizenship although many stay as illegals. As a Jew who writes about Zionism and Israel I suggest you first learn some facts about the place. I personally have no grudge against Israel - the world is full of countries and places that practice policies that I might not approve of. However I do object to American politicians spending my tax dollars and pandering to such a state - I especially object when my country subsidizes a racist state that brutally oppresses another people on my dime. flw <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
