Zionism is antisemitism, and Palestine

I remember this article was posted shortly after it was written months ago. Both then and now I still do not comprehend this part:

Why was it necessary to create a State of Israel instead of a plurinational and pluricultural free state of Palestine where Christians, Muslims and Jews could live together and be represented? This question cannot be answered, because the only answer betrays the ethnonationalist roots of Zionism: "We deserve to have a country just for us".

Therefore we see that Zionism is antisemitic, and it cannot be anything else.

I get that Zionism could be considered antisemetic because they don't think Jews should live in Europe, but if someone is able to elaborate on this more I'd appreciate it.

I finally have some time to take a look at your question. There's that part like you said, that zionism supposes that no matter where Jews live they will always be alien. And also that they "need" to have their own ethnostate as they could never integrate with anyone else. In no uncertain terms, Zionism says that Jews are predisposed to committing genocide.

The first argument is exactly what Hitler and tbh many (non-Jewish) people before him believed in, he didn't come out of nowhere. The second is what eugenicists believe.

Some people don't like the comparison but it's becoming more mainstream as the world sees what 'Israel' is doing in Gaza. Zionism shares a lot of traits with fascism, to the point we could probably call zionism a form of fascism. Zionism didn't come out of nowhere either, it shares a history with the rise of proto-fascism of the late 19th century.
