LK's script is so boring and one-sided. They treat their audience as if everyone is thick and needs the on-message to be hammered home. BBC is racist.

Number of Jews in the world is 15.7 million. (World Population Review)

Are you able to explain your rationale Steve?

From a Jewish perspective they are heavily outnumbered. I've calculated it roughly in my head as 125 Muslims to 1 Jew. Seen from that perspective October 7, when 1195 Jews were killed seems even more devastating. As Osama Bin Laden said: our youths love death as you love life.

Why should the number of Jews and the number of Moslems make any difference to anything under discussion here?  What have I got to be ashamed of?  You are the one actively supporting murder, war crimes, genocide and racial supremacy.

When have I ever expressed support for any of the organisations you list?  You on the other hand support every genocidal action by the evil Zionist regime without reservation.

Being a Zionist fundamentally means you believe in a nation state homeland for the Jewish people.

Just because someone is a Zionist dose not mean they necessarily support the actions of what ever Israeli administration is in place.

That is a fair point.

There are many Jews in Israel who support the two state solution, territorial concessions and are against west bank settlements. They are Zionists also.

Thanks for explaining that.  I didn't know that.

From this weeks edition of The New Statesman.  What is Zionism?  Why the State of Israel is central to Jewish identity.  By Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis:
