Zionist standards

"Amidst this commotion, a local columnist published a strong article. "Anyone who harms the IDF is not a Zionist," she wrote, expressing what many people feel: The IDF is sacred, and damaging its property is sacrilegious; the IDF is the last bastion of Zionism, and any slashed jeep tire is an ugly slash on its face.
Burning mosques and crops - that's something that shouldn't be done, but it still is not a denial of the Zionist principle: The land is ours, the sky is ours. The entire land, and the entire sky too. To train dogs to smell Arabs from a distance - like the white dog from Mississippi that was trained to identify blacks and to bite them - is still Zionism for beginners. To summon members of Rabbi Meir Kahane's Jewish Defense League from all over the world to come to the aid of the settler nation is a necessity not to be condemned, in an illuminating article. An article that sets off a red light. Settlers, although they have erred at times, are good Zionists, as long as they know how to differentiate between IDF property and an Arab."
