And that the dominant strand today, was not the one that formed the basis of Zionism in the first 100 years ?

Most Americans have no idea what Zionism is, with a large minority knowing it as something bad that merits special attention for Israel as a country.

Grey areas on most issues, especially with this conflict, don't really get the time of day anymore. It's slowly killing us worldwide.

Israel during the first 30 years of its existence under the Labor Zionist government was no less oppressive (in some ways even more) to Palestinians than now under a right-wing government.

Yeah, I think that even those far leftists americans who considered themselves anti-american have a very USA based worldview, which usually forgets non american history.

This reminds me how the RNRHOF tries to be 'diverse' getting non rock american inductees, while forgetting about rock artists from big scenes like Mexico, Argentina, France, Germany, Sweden, Japan, etc.

Back on topic, they could correlate the old Labor israeli party with Scoop Jackson or maybe Lieberman. Cold war libs.

Golda Meir, a liberal icon, was extremely hostile to Arabs that it's not that distinguished from Bibi.
