from my understanding of it, its due to the fact that they are committing genocide towards one group of people in order to obtain that land. Palestinians have been there for awhile now and for a while they have been trying to get rid of them by unjust means. Genocide is bad so Israel who is committing the genocide is bad, u know? Yes purposely starving people is considered mass murder! Yes they decided to use the fighting back of a few to justify it! But just like how abuse is, once you fight back you get labeled as violent or crazy even when they abuser has been causing harm this entire time. Hope this helped you

Zionist is from from the word Zion. According to the bible Zion is the land that god promised the Israelites. A Zionist is someone that believes in their right to this land no matter the cost. The issue is that ‘Zion’ is already inhabited by Palestinians, so to be a Zionist means you support the pushing out of these people. Pushing out by; reducing resources, minimizing access to the outside world and building whatever they want in the middle of communities. As a result they move further and further out ward leading to the Gaza Strip.

thanks for the explanation :)

Neither of those are the definition of zionism.
"Zion" is a hill near Jerusalem and "zionism" is the belief that Jewish people have the right self-determination and sovereignty on their historic homeland (Jews being an indigenous tribe from the Levant - the name "Jew" comes from the historic homeland of Judea now Israel). It is both a modern political movement and the
ancient Jewish longing for a return to Zion - with examples of it going back to the time when the Babylonians conquered the land and exiled/enslaved the Jewish people. Zionism, as a definition, doesn't have anything to do with the Arabs of the region...though it does impact them as the Arabs started multiple genocidal wars with the explicit intent to unalive all Jews in the region (this started long before Israel was established with major events happening after the British gained ownership of the region in 1917 from the Ottoman empire and dhimmi laws were no more). Despite this, there are over 2M Arabs living as equal citizens in Israel...because Zionism doesn't call for a homogenous ethnostate and those Arabs chose to live in peace.

The author mentioned Krav Maga which is an Israeli martial art.

This is a very effective type of martial art for modern warfare. That is likely why the author mentioned it. Krav Maga is used in various military and militia trainings around the world. Thier use of this doesn't make them a zionist...but even if they were..."zionism" isn't a bad word. Propagandists will talk to you about genocide (something that is demonstrably false) but they do that out of ignorance and hate rather than actual awareness of facts and histories.

I agree a u that mentioning Krav Maga wasn’t out of the intention of “I support Israel” but Zionism is still bad bc the homeland that’s “promised” is already occupied by palestinians and depraving the ppl w/ hunger = intentionally tryna kill = genocide

Just bc middle eastern ppl did atrocities back in BC era doesnt mean other ethnicities can commit it too. Intentionally starving a specific population is just… bad?? And it happens that ppl who still commit it by denying international aid…. They believe in zionism…….. despite all the hostages being freed now…….

Doing Krav Maga or mentioning it doesn’t make the author a Zionist. This is 100% common sense, it’s just a sensitive time, so ppl are scrutinizing any praise to Israel and what not. As someone who’s read a lot of action manhwa Krav MAGA has been mentioned a lot.
