    The title of this post is extremely misleading. Zohran’s repeated take is that the only version of Israel that has a right to exist is one that is not a supremacist state, and therefore one that is not zionist, which is why zionists get very mad at how he answers this question without falling into any rhetorical traps.

      Israel exists because of & for Zionism. There is no Israel without Zionism.

A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.

Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.

Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.

We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose “defence force”'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.
