the people generally are good on this issue, which is nice. anti-zionism is definitely a normal political position here. but we are also ruled by ghouls who have catered to Israel at every point and had to be dragged into admitting it’s a genocide. they also provide material support to the US military with Shannon airport. they’ve been refusing to pass the occupied territories bill to divest from Israel for years now, delaying it using arcane parliamentary measures because the Yankees or the Israelis said so. we are a total vassal state of the imperialists and the same govt has just been voted in again by the landlord and homeowner class. not that we are a real democracy anyway.
anti-zionism is definitely a normal political position here.
By the way, as I understand it, Zionism is to give “Jewish people a place to live”.
By that definition, what Israel’s currently doing is anti-Zionist, because their behavior is damaging their reputation in the world, while Ireland’s criticism of the war is in that sense pro-Zionist.
Please try to use the definitions of widely used words by their popularly accepted understandings instead of individualist interpretations. Especially in regards to contentious and politically charged words such as zionism, an ideological movement for (originally) the re-establishment and (now) the development and expansion of an ethnically Jewish nation in what is now Israel.
