Was Meir Kahane a fascist?

I have seen people calling Meir Kahane a fascist or even a Nazi. And Kahanism has been described as a form of fascism. But is this accurate? Here are their 10 ideological tenants:

• Kahanism's ideological tenants

1. Anti-Arab Racism
2. Anti-Christian Sentiment
3. Anti-Communism
4. Anti-Democracy
5. Anti-Palestinian Sentiment
6. Jewish Nationalism
7. Jewish Supremacy
8. Militant Zionism
9. Right-Wing Populism
10. Religious Zionism

• Fascism's ideological tenants

1. Anti-Capitalism
2. Anti-Communism
3. Anti-Democracy
4. Corporatism
5. Militarism
6. National Syndicalism
7. One-Party State
8. Reactionary Modernism
9. Totalitarianism
10. Ultranationalism

Now, let's examine the proposed policies of Kahane. Meir Kahane advocated for an ethnically pure Israel, which Arabs, Muslims, Christians and others would be expelled from, basing religious policies on Halakha, a "Greater Israel", that will have parts of Palestine, Jordan, Lebanon, Egypt, Syria, Iraq, etc and for the segregation of Jewish and Arab neighborhoods in Israel.

The Question

Now, let's answer the question: Is Kahanism fascist in nature? The answer to this question is quite simple: Kahanism is quasi-fascist, but not fully fascist.

Conclusion

In conclusion, Kahane is quasi-fascist, but not fully fascist or a Nazi. So the accusations are only partially correct, but the Nazi accusations are incorrect.
