    Zionism itself essentially boiled down to using the tragedies faced by jews in order to borrow the boot of western nations until they had one of their own. It’s why the next most likely new homeland for jews after Israel was going to be the Nazi suggestion of Madagascar or the Italian suggestion of Ethiopia or Libya. It’s easy to oppress and make such compromises when the most strict way of teaching your religion states everyone besides you has no soul and you are going to divinely rule over them someday anyway.
