"From Jabotinsky’s Iron Wall to Gaza’s Graves: Zionism’s Fascist Alliances Then and Now
Zionism was never a simple movement for Jewish refuge from persecution. It emerged in the late 19th century as a distinctly Western European settler-colonial ideology, shaped by the same imperial logic that carved up Africa and Asia. Its founding thinkers — Theodor Herzl, Max Nordau, and others — explicitly looked to European colonialism as their model.
Herzl, the father of political Zionism, openly described the future Jewish state as 'a portion of the rampart of Europe against Asia, an outpost of civilization as opposed to barbarism.' He actively sought charters from colonial powers to establish a Jewish colony in Palestine. This was never about coexistence with the indigenous population. It was about conquest and replacement."
