It holds that the Jewish people have the Biblical right to self-determination in their own national home, and the right to develop their national culture. We stand with the people of Israel, and the Government of Israel, insofar they are keeping the Biblical mandates. We believe that the government of Israel, or any other people are not allowed to give away an inch of the land of Israel. Zionism today, in its simplest form, is the affirmation and support for the democratic state of Israel as the homeland of the Jewish people.

At a time where Zionism is defamed and slandered, this article sets out the truth. I am a Zionist. I believe that the Jewish people established itself in the Land of Israel, albeit somewhat late. Had it listened to the alarm clock, there would have been no Holocaust, and my dead grandfather – the one I was named after – would have been ...
The Magen David Usually, when we think about a "Magen David," we imagine a six- pointed star, the "Star of David". In fact, the Talmudic reference has nothing to do with a star at all.

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. A Zionist is anyone who believes that God gave the land of Israel to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and their descendants forever. "Forever" includes t ...
Since September 2000, Israel and its citizens have been going through dark times. First, Homicide bombers were blowing themselves up (and by that taking lives of innocent civilians with them), and had become an overwhelming, frightening threat to the people of Israel. Then, rockets fired by Hamas from Gaza put hundreds of thousands of Israelis in s ...

The Beta Israel, the Lemba, Igbo Jews, and more… After the fall of the Kingdom of Israel (Northern Kingdom) in 720 B.C. and the Kingdom of Judea (Southern Kingdom) sixth century B.C., there have been several groups who have either fled the land of Israel, or who were captured and removed as slaves, which in turn commenced a diaspora that form ...
