Zionism is the Jewish national movement of rebirth and renewal in the land of Israel – the historical birthplace of the Jewish people.

In 1967 – 19 years after the establishment of the State in 1948 – The Israelis captured Jerusalem in 1967.

Every one who knows the problems of territory, religion, education, and simple racial hate and international involvement, knows that the greatest problem of all is related to the Bible.

The question who is a Zionist is often a sterile (difficult) debate over semantics, rather than one of any substance. Contrary to popular concept, one does not have to be Jewish to be a Zionist.

As a bible believer I believe that the Palestinian (Arabs from the Arabian peninsula) should have their own state. They should have their own democratic government running their own issue (Hamas not Fatah, who was not democratic elected).
