Totally untrustworthy.

"Slowly rewritten over time, the latest revisions made in June now insist that Zionism is an "ethno-cultural nationalist movement” rooted in the desire to "create a Jewish state in Palestine with as much land, as many Jews, and as few Palestinian Arabs as possible.”

"The common ideology among mainstream Zionist factions is support for territorial concentration and a Jewish demographic majority in Palestine, through colonization,” the revision further states."

Wikipedia’s redefinition of Zionism draws severe rebuke: ‘History is being rewritten’

Tim adds:

Israel has always been willing to share the land. It was that willingness that to "Palestinian" Muslims appeared weak and thus made them believe (a belief they cling to to this day) that they could win it all by warfare. Had israel actually held to this definition of Zionism the Palestinians would have been forced out over time. That didn't happen as Israel always sought a "kinder, gentler" approach.

So Israel accepts a few paltry acres of ground and is immediately attacked and fights back and is then branded "Zionist" and is so called every time they defend themselves against Islamic aggression.

I would add that every country on Earth would be happy to take more land; it's what nations do. It's what Palestine is trying to do right now. They have had deals offering them everything they want but they demand Jerusalem and "from the river to the sea" meaning ALL of it.

So this whole thing is a crock. Zionism was only a very reasonable idea that Jews - homeless by and large - should go back to their ancestral homeland, a land that at the time was rather desolate and unerinhabited. Now it's being portrayed as "Leibenstraum" by a bunch of Nazis in yarmulkas. It's a damnable lie.

Wikipedia is completely untrustworthy. I never use it except to look up pop-culture stuff. I don't know why it has so much credibility, except that it always appears first in any Google search (which also has no credibility).
