Websites that would post that Zionism = Racism or White Supremism or Nazism or any other such epithets.
Naziism is a particular political philosophy. Zionism has its fascist elements to be sure (as you make abundantly clear over and over again) but is quite distinct from Naziism as a particular ideology. You might have noticed I take people to task when they make that particular comparison - at least when they make it in broad strokes, particular policies or actions can be compared.
Really, you could try for a little accuracy.
Anyway.
I'm curious Dave. Where do you think i got the notion to compare the two ideologies? I'll bet you think I was just looking for some shit to throw at Zionism and picked this out of a hat, don't you? Do tell, I'm curious about your notion.

OK - sorry, misread something when reading too fast. But people like that hate liberal Zionists too.
