Zionism, also called Jewish Nationalism, is a 
Nationalist ideology that believes that the best solution to the "Jewish question" is to create a nation for Jews in the Holy Land.
Zionism was proposed as a solution to the Jewish Question and as an escape from 
Anti-Semitism. The idea is that the only way to escape persecution from countries within the diaspora was to create a land that was specifically Jewish that would be safe for Jews.
Variants
Post-Zionism
Post-Zionism refers to the opinions of some Israelis, diaspora Jews and others, particularly in academia, that Zionism fulfilled its ideological mission with the formation of the modern State of Israel in 1948, and that Zionist ideology should therefore be considered at an end. Right-wing Jews also use the term to refer to the left wing of Israeli politics in light of the Oslo Accords of 1993 and 1995.
Reform Judaism
Reform Judaism, also known as Liberal Judaism or Progressive Judaism, is a major Jewish denomination that emphasizes the evolving nature of Judaism, the superiority of its ethical aspects to its ceremonial ones, and belief in a continuous search for truth and knowledge, which is closely intertwined with human reason and not limited to the theophany at Mount Sinai. A highly liberal strand of Judaism, it is characterized by lessened stress on ritual and personal observance, regarding halakha (Jewish law) as non-binding and the individual Jew as autonomous, and great openness to external influences and progressive values.
Neo-Zionism
Neo-Zionism is a right-wing, nationalistic and religious ideology that appeared in Israel following the Six-Day War in 1967 and the capture of the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Neo-Zionists consider these lands part of Israel and advocate their settlement by Israeli Jews. Some advocate the transfer of Arabs not only from these areas but also from within the Green Line.
Cultural Zionism
Cultural Zionism is a strain in the concept of Zionism that valued creating a centre in historic Palestine with its own secular Jewish culture and history, including language and historical roots, rather than other Zionist ideas such as political Zionism. The man considered to have founded the concept of cultural Zionism is Asher Ginsberg, better known as Ahad Ha'am. With his secular vision of a Jewish "spiritual centre" in Israel, he confronted Theodor Herzl. Unlike Herzl, the founder of political Zionism, Ha'am strived for "a Jewish state and not merely a state of Jews".
Jewish Atheism
Jewish Atheism refers to the atheism of people who are ethnically and (to a certain extent) culturally Jewish. Contrary to popular belief, the term "Jewish atheism" is not a contradiction because Jewish identity encompasses not only religious components, but also ethnic and cultural ones. So, one can be ethnically Jewish, but not believe in the religion of Judaism and be an atheist.
History
Political Zionism started in the late 1800s with Theodor Herzl publishing his book: Der Judenstaat (The Jewish State) and later Altneuland (The Old New Land), but the Jewish sentiment of returning to Zion has existed far longer since the land of Israel was taken over by the 
Roman Empire.
Zionism started as a fringe ideology within the Jewish community, with many voicing their disapproval for the idea, but in 1917, during the First World War, 
Britain was in dire need of support, so they turned to the Jewish community, and in return, they created the Balfour Declaration which was a public statement promising a homeland for Jews located in 
Palestine, which at the time was under the 
Ottoman Empire's rule.

United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine 
1936-1938
The United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine began with the Peel Commission, which was appointed by the British Government to investigate the causes of unrest, specifically the 1936 Arab Revolt, in Mandatory Palestine. The Commission concluded with a proposed partition plan of three different zones:
A British zone, mainly controlling Jerusalem and Bethlehem (5%)- A Jewish zone, Controlling the north of the land (25%)
An Arab zone controlling the centre and south of the land (75%)
Reactions
- The British deemed the partition plan as in impracticable and therefore rejected the plan
- The Jewish reaction was at first divided. Some felt the borders left no room for a Jewish state, others wanted a Jewish state in the whole of Palestine and others saw the Commission as a 'negotiation' with the hopes to adjust the borders in the future. The Zionist congress accepted the partition plan in hopes to eventually negotiate and adjust the borders.
- The Arabs rejected the proposal as they saw 'no room for the negotiation of a Jewish state', but also because they wanted Jerusalem within their borders and opposed the idea of a population transfer.
1947
- May - The United Nations formed the United Nations Special Committee on Palestine (UNSCOP) who would spend time in Palestine, investigate the causes of the conflict and devise a solution.
- September - The Ad Hoc Committee on the Palestinian Question was also established in 1947 by the UN general assembly.
- The Committees proposed the 1947 Partition Plan, which was adopted as Resolution 181 (II) after several reviews and changes.
1948 Arab-Israeli War
Dubbed the War of Independence by Israelis and the Nakba by Palestinians.
The 1948 Arab-Israeli War began a day after the Israeli declaration of Independence on May 14 1948.
It was a continuation of the ongoing Arab-Israeli conflict, which caused a civil war in Mandatory Palestine. The goal of the Arab League was to establish a Palestinian state under the whole Palestinian region.

- Likes to call other non-cubes "Goy", "Goyim", or "Gentiles"
and sometimes "animals" because the Talmud says so.
