That Zionism can be good enough for Gandhi or the Rabbis. Mine is a different: it's the only geography where, no matter what, I won't be prosecuted, accused or picked upon for my genetics. (Not that it happened to me, but you know so many it did.)
In other words, it is the exact thing as for you being American, etc. Individual Safety at the price of collective danger these days.

By the same set of ideas, the above must be (become) true for the Arabs.

And the Jerusalem bit, from within, or above, stands as an historical icon, somehow like the Louvre museum.

>>The real Jerusalem is the spiritual Jerusalem. Thus he can realise this Zionism in any part of the world.<<

I suppose the same thing could be said to the Palestinians, that the real Palestine is a spiritual Palestine, and there is no reason to strive for it on earth.

And to you, as well. You don't need anything, you just think you do. You don't need money, a house, a car, a wife, or children. These can all be achieved spiritually, aka in the imagination.
