> never seen (or heard of) a Zionist that doesn't think Jews should live on a piece of land in the Middle East

This just sounds like whether one believes, today, in the destruction of Israel as a state. In my view, I don’t; two Nakbas don’t make a right in the same way shipping America’s Black population back to Africa is a nonsense solution to slavery.

I'm specifically talking about Zionism's origins. It's founding principle is a Jewish State for Jews in the Promised Lands.

How they did that was violent: fact.

How they maintain this is violent and illegal: fact.

Therefore to be a Zionist today, means that you agree with the apartheid, ethnic cleansing, and the Jewish ethno-supremacist state to stay the course for Zionists to continue to have their own land. Therefore, you support war crimes and mass killings of Palestinians.

Now do let me know if there are Zionists that have a different view on things. But from my research and discussions with Zionists, I've never met a Zionist that does not believe that Jews should not have, and should not continue to, have their own state in the Middle East where Palestinians previously lived.
