I was already there when it was reported that demonstrators near Columbia University loudly suggested that Jews should return to Poland. My wife, son, daughter and I were visiting Holocaust ruins in Eastern Europe. My father’s family is from Poland and Ukraine, and many of his relatives died in the Holocaust.
I don’t know if any of my ancestors were Zionists, but I think some of them must have been. The definition of “Zionist” I always use is someone who believes that the Jewish people deserve a secure state. That’s what I believe. I also believe that Palestinians deserve a safe state. The Israeli occupation is a disaster and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu needs to be replaced.
