Initially there were different versions of Zionism. Theodor Herzels Zionism carried more egalitarian values and envisioned Jews and Palestinians living side by side as equals in Palestine. The version that won in the end was the one espoused by David Ben-Gurion and which was based on Jewish supremacism over any non-Jews living in Palestine much the same way they lived until Israel was created. Too bad Herzels version of Zionism didnt become a reality--israel could now be a utopia in the Middle East. Israel current version of Zionism is not that different than the 19th century American philosophy known as Manifest Destiny. by Tim Calahan Celeste Stuart Janice Sorensen Sharin Alpert David Woodsome
