Grocery store in a movie.
(This is actually a liquor store but for me that's close enough.)

Neither of us has to define Zionism. It already has a definition (the belief that Jews have a right to live in their ancestral homeland). Many aren't fans of Likud, but believe in Israel's right to exist. BTW, your comment is a deflection from mine - why you apply double standards to Israel.
For the Jewish homeland, yes it is. Ninety percent of Jews are Zionists, so yes they do want Israel to be able to protect and defend itself. Now explain your double standards and laser focus on one tiny country the size of NJ.
Where is the $40B figure from? Most of the aid we give Israel is earmarked to be spent on US weapons, fueling domestic manufacturing and jobs. It's not free money. And aid to Israel totals one percent of the defense budget. Do you have issues with the other 99% or just the miniscule Jewish funding?
And why is that? AIPAC is made up of Americans. Do you also have an issue with the nearly 20 Arab American PACs? Further, do you have an issue with the 200+ foreign-connected PACs that represent nearly every other country on earth?

A song with syncopation.
Red Hot Chili Peppers "Give It Away"
Had to look up syncopation. This fits, maybe? I hope?

Ninety percent of Jews are Zionists. So comforting to hear that you only hate 90% of Jews.
This is a dance off. If you see this, reply with a dance or get eliminated.
Where do you think European Jews came from before they were exiled to Europe? ๐
All Jews are native to Judea. They are the indigenous people.
And no, war is not "genocide."
No genocide and Arabs are not the native population, but do go on.
Yes, @aythree.bsky.social is obsessed with the one tiny Jewish state the size of New Jersey. Actual Muslim ethnostates don't phase him.
I asked my question first. Why no smoke for the 20+ Muslim ethnostates or the 50+ Muslim majority nations?
And BTW, none of what you just said about Israel is true.
The issue is that I don't see you going off about any of the Muslim ethnostates, none of which are democratic in the slightest, just laser focused on the sole Jewish majority country, which IS democratic. I wonder why that could be. ๐ค
Love "Don't Get Me Wrong" ๐ถ
That would never happen. And you can answer my repeated question first before I answer yours.

Thank you for the informative posts. ๐
The term ethnostate is disputed as to specific meaning, so I haven't even really argued that with you. However, Israel IS a multi ethnic democracy with equal rights and freedom of religion. This cannot be said of the Muslim ethnostates, so I'd like to hear your opinion on them.
Oh wow, you discovered a country with citizenship laws! That never happens! ๐คฃ
