Most people, IMHO, who claim to be anti-Zionist are in fact also anti-Semitic. They just don't want to be accused of something else so they hide behind this other idea while appearing not to be associated with tacit support of the terrorist policy of the Arabs. The only group of people who support the "Jewish movement that arose in the late 19th century in response to growing anti-Semitism and sought to reestablish a Jewish homeland in Palestine" and hence support the modern notion of "the support and development of the state of Israel" are Jews or those who would profit off of such establishment of a Jewish homeland. Hence they are in fact anti-Semitic. The policy of "aggressive settlement of disputed territories" is a policy being pursued by the more radical elements of the Jewish religion and was supported and encouraged by the mainstream government of Israel. Hence they are all related. You cannot divide the issue up because you don't want to appear anti-Semitic (a term which has been oft abused and used). It sounds so much more PC to be anti-Zionist.
