Zionism isn't an embrace of right-wing ideology. It's the simple notion that Israel should exist. That is really all Zionism is. So when people embrace the concept of ANTI-Zionism, they have to be educated that they are referring to whether an entire nation should be wiped off the map, not whether its policies are acceptable. No one, for example, suggested that South Africa should dissolve - they demanded widespread policy change. THAT is the difference and THAT is why anti-Zionist rhetoric is unacceptable when it focuses on Israel's existence, not on policy.
