Roots Of Zionism in faith and history across Judaism
Religion Today presents Zionism as a long standing Jewish longing for the land of origins rooted in Genesis promises. The piece links Zion to Jerusalem and Israel’s modern statehood, noting religious implications for Christians and Jews and citations from Isaiah, Psalms, and Jeremiah. It also mentions United Nations labeling Zionism as racism and traces the historical control of the land, culminating with Israel's 1948 statehood and its religious significance. A separate item notes a 20 000 pound anchor from USS Arizona to be displayed in Arizona with 32 bronze plaques honoring crew.
