We need to talk about Zionism
In the coverage of Israel-Palestine in the Western media, an ideology that is central to the story - Zionism - rarely gets discussed. Instead, we hear a debate about whether opposition to it - anti-Zionism - is anti-Semitic.
The Listening Post’s Daniel Turi reports on Zionism, the confusion that surrounds it, and what it tells us about the world’s longest-running occupation.

Jewish anti-Zionism in the US: An interview with Simone Zimmerman
Anti-Zionist Jews have formed a key part of the protests across the United States against Israel’s war on Gaza. Given the importance of US support for Israel, it’s a movement that could prove pivotal.
We hear from one of its leaders, Simone Zimmerman, whose own transition away from Zionism forms the core of the recent award-winning documentary, Israelism.
