I don't think anyone who claims to be anti-zionist apart from the far-right of the spectrum calls for the destruction of Israel.
The "homeland" reason is stupid. Religion should have no say in politics, including the founding of states.
- tariandbari 8y agoWhat you think or don't think doesn't matter, the fact is that being an anti-zionist is, by definition, being pro Israel destruction. If it is not a Jewish state it is something else. Religion has a say in politics, stupid or not, Hamas which controls Gaza is a religious organization, there 57 countries that identify themselves as Islamic nations. The Jews deserve one such state as well. That being said, Jews is a religion as well as people. If it was only a religion (convenient yet false argument) the Nazis would let them convert instead of exterminating 6 million of them.
- amitport 8y agoIt is only relevant that it is what a major part of Gaza population claims. Israeli people feel that anti-zionist effectively results in giving weapons and access to those who wish to use them, which means destruction and ethnic murder. Unwillingness the explain how this outcome is prevented seems to many as complete alignment with Hamas goals and effectively (indirectly) calling for the destruction of Israel.
