- laimewhisps 1y agounwatch.org is a Zionist organization. It literally has an Israel link in its top header.
- bigyabai 1y ago> The US has placed sanctions on her too. The US is the famously Zionist country, so you're not doing much legwork refuting their claim.
- b112 1y agoAt no point did I say the US was zionist, or not zionist. I stated they placed sanctions. Meanwhile, ypu ignored the half a dozen countries, and multiple parliamentarians, Ministers, etc from each country, in the link I referred to. It should also be noted that believing Israel has a right to exist, is not zionism. Zionism is much more extreme. This woman has been sanctioned for being anti-Semitic. And to carry the point, believing that Israel shouldn't be settling the West bank, isn't anti-Semitic. I repeat, supporting Israel's right to exist, is not Zionism.
- laimewhisps 1y agoBelieving israel has a right to exist is the definition of Zionism. This woman is not anti-Semitic, she speaks up, correctly, against Israel's many crimes.
- b112 1y agoIf that's your definition, then effectively the entire planet is zionist, including almost all Arab states, and even the PLO. Are you asserting that Egypt is zionist? The Palatinian Liberation Organization? All of there states have said that Israel has a right to exist. Passed resolutions. If so, then what value has the word? Zionism has changed over time. Israel exists, is going no where, and only weirdos think Israel should vanish. However many will espouse an end to zionism today, which typically and effectively means no more expansion into modern Palastine, and a 2 state solution.
- laimewhisps 1y agoThat is the definition of Zionism. The majority of the world's population is not Zionist and does not support the state of Israel. The governments are a different story. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/Zionism https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/Zionism
- b112 1y agoModern Israel has existed for more than a century now. Longer than Palestine as a place, after the Ottomon empire fell. Both peoples have existed in the Middle East, and in that area for thousands of years. I find few people that think Israel shouldn't exist. Do you have any sort of surveys, indicating that most people on the planet think Israel should bot exist? It's a very weird assertion.
- bigyabai 1y agoThere are currently Israeli lawmakers calling for crippling sanctions against Israel, as well as Israeli citizens protesting in the streets of Tel Aviv. At this point it's not entirely clear if the Israelis want Israel to exist under Netanyahu's leadership.
- dlubarov 1y agoYou mean the letter to the Guardian [1]? There were two former lawmakers who signed it, no current ones.

- tim333 1y agoIt was quite hard finding quotes from her by googling. Lot's of articles saying anti semitic or Hamas supporter but no quotes of what she said. I had a look at her xittter and there's more horror at starving children. I think the Zionist lot may be Streisand affecting themselves here.
