    Zionists are doing what they’ve done since the Bronze Age, regardless of whether semitic DNA or European DNA. Unless both groups of Zionists, plus white Christians are genocide, in the United States and everywhere else, I hardly see Zionism being “toast.”

      Not really. Zionists are doing what they’ve done since the first Crusade, because that’s where the roots of settler colonialism come from and what the function of Israel actually is for white Christians. Bronze age conquest was very different, when you got conquered by Greeks the only thing that really changed was who you pay taxes to, what trading markets you participate in, and whose laws you follow. The genocidal settler project is actually more modern.

      This attempt to root Zionism in ancient history is actually Zionist historical revisionism.

        😬 I get your point, and it was poor phrasing. My point is Israel was rooted in conquest,
