Judaism is to serve God, to be peaceful, to be loving, to do kindness. Zionism is a truly selfish movement of occupying another people. So wrong, so vicious. So anti what Judaism is all about.

Train yourself in doing good
that lasts and brings happiness.
Cultivate generosity, the life of peace,
and a mind of boundless love.
Itivuttaka 1.22

1st humanity has to be loving,
Before it can work out the liar's paradox
--Those who love for themselves,
and not just themselves as themselves;
those whom we lovers hospitably choose to love--
and redeem itself as itself.
Can you be yourself, without
what it wants,
what you know Ego feigns truth to get.
God is Love.
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want!
Love is my Father's hand upon me, up or down I shall meekly bear it!
1st I love the Creator, and then I love the creation.
And my brothers who love the Creator, to them I brush their shoulders like the Father does me.
If, mendicants, a mendicant cultivates a mind of love even as long as a finger-snap, they’re called a mendicant who does not lack absorption, who follows the Teacher’s instructions, who responds to advice, and who does not eat the country’s alms in vain. How much more so those who make much of it!
AN 1.53: From Accharāsaṅghātavagga: Section on A Fingersnap, translated by Bhikkhu Sujato
Fear is the primary force upholding structures of domination. It promotes the desire for separation, the desire not to be known. When we are taught that safety lies always with sameness, then difference, of any kind, will appear as a threat. When we choose to love we choose to move against fear—against alienation and separation. The choice to love is a choice to connect—to find ourselves in the other.
