Glad to see this article, & the magazine piece it cites, on the confused meaning of “Zionism” today:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/religion/2026/09/17/word-zionism-is-controversial-some-jewish-leaders-want-drop-it/

The entire quandary surrounding American Jews & Israel is the subject of Nathaniel Popkin’s novel PARTLY STRONG, PARTLY BROKEN, which “deftly untangles a brutal conundrum with empathy and insight.” Find it at Amazon, Bookshop.org, or you local bookstore.
