Yourish got a reasonably rational and even-handed note from an Egyptian, and gave a very reasonable, rational, even-handed reply. She also gave me the first clear definition of Zionism I've seen in quite some time:

Zionism originally was the movement for the establishment of a Jewish state. It is now the movement in support of the continued existence of the State of Israel.

I can hear the leftists, apologists, and anti-semites yelling at the screen from here, but I agree with and support this definition. Don't agree? Feel free to supply your own formal definition. Be sure to cite your sources.

And don't forget to blame the JOOOOOOS!!!
