So what is Zionism for you?
I would define Zionism as
a political, cultural, maybe religious movement
that started in the beginning of the 1900s
in Europe in order to build a Jewish State.
Mainly in the land of Israel/Palestine
the area that's here now.
Under the assumption or the basic will to have
a place where Jewish people can share their culture
without being mixed with other cultures
that are making the decisions
of what is happening all around them.
And today ZIonism I guess for many people
it's the will to stay in the land of Israel
and to be very connected to the country
and to the state.
To serve in the army
and for some people it is to have the entire land of Israel.
As Israel.
That's what I would say.
What do you think Zionism is?
Ok, that's a hard question.
For me I grew up to hear a motto
its about giving the land without a people
this is how Israelis or Zionists say it,
A land without a people to a people without a land
which is the Jewish nation.
Which is not, for me, it is not true.
Because there were also some people living in this land.
Zionism is a political movement that was
established in order to make a refuge for the Jews
but the way it is taking place now
is making another oppression
on another people.
So for me, I'm against anyone oppressing anyone.
Now the facts may have changed.
There are some facts on the ground
like "Status Quo"
if you call it Two States for Two Nations
it is not like what it was.
But the thing that should be changed
is that no nation, nobody should be oppressed.
