I don't believe that he is because he does not wear a Kippah. ...

Why would a non-Zionist make a career at the IDF?

It doesn't make sense to serve in a military for many years there if you do not believe in Jewish self-determination.

Zionism is not about Jewish self-determination; it is about stealing Palestinian land to make a Jewish state.

Wow, since when did the meaning of "Zionism" change in this way?

I must have missed something here.

Ah, ok. He's still a Zionist though.

By their actions you shall know them.

Quite.

[wat0n]

That's very vague, Zionists have also left land under their control in the past and ironically they have been largely the same ones who were supporting the concept of Greater Israel a few years before doing so.

[danholo]

By the actions of some you shall know all of them.

Fixed.

All Palestinians are terrorists and bring up their children to hate and murder Jews?

Of course: By their actions you shall know them.

Sinai was not part of Palestine. It is not vague to state that Zionists want to take land from Palestinians to use for a Jewish state. Even a child can see this.

[wat0n]

It's not only the Sinai though. It's also southern Lebanon and Gaza.

This is a rather crass simplification akin to the one danholo mentioned.

Gaza is part of Palestine and still under effective occupation by Israel.

You have to learn Schizenglish to understand ... "Zionism" = whatever fish Heinie is trying to fry at the moment. At this moment he is, I think, having Delusions that Gen. Herzel is going to defect to the Palestinians and take several IDF armored assault brigades with him ...
