This blog was borne out of frustration that Zionism has become a dirty word in today's society. The author is a staunch believer in Zionism, equality and Judaism. The aim of this blog is to show that it is possible to be all of the above simultaneously, indeed that being Zionistic necessitates basic human kindness and love, and that in no way does being Zionist negate the basic respect needed to form an honest, ethical society.
