Anti-Zionism is the yetzer hara. It is also a psychological phenomena known a “denial”. The Mayo Clinic says:
Refusing to acknowledge that something is wrong is a way of coping with emotional conflict, stress, painful thoughts, threatening information and anxiety. You can be in denial about anything that makes you feel vulnerable or threatens your sense of control, such as an illness, addiction, financial problems or relationship conflicts. You can be in denial about something happening to you or to someone else.
When you’re in denial, you:
Refuse to acknowledge a stressful problem or situation
Avoid facing the facts of the situation
Minimize the consequences of the situation
Rav Tzvi Yehuda said that the term “religious Zionist” is a redundancy. Being religious means being Zionist and one cannot truly be Zionist without being religious.
