In short, if you are a Zionist, then it is very understandable why you are confused.
The root cause of antisemitism is, of course, assimilation. Zionism is an extremely strong force of assimilation. Its very purpose is to change Jews and Judaism into Zionists and Zionism – without G-d and Torah, of course.
(Over the past few years, particularly since the snakes at “Eretz HaKodesh” began spewing their lies and propaganda, Zionism has unfortunately infiltrated the frum world like never before. This is very, very, concerning, Hashem Yishmereinu!)
When the Zionist paradise was founded (in 1948), the Brisker Rav became physically ill. The Chazon Ish tried to make him feel better by invoking the Chazal that a Gezeira raah avida liHiBatla, meaning that a bad decree will at some point be nullified. The Brisker Rav answered him that this is only true when people recognize this bad decree as such. But if they think it is a good thing, then this dictum does not apply.
So, if you care to stop antisemitism (and to make G-d happy), then perhaps you could spread the word in your locale that Zionism is not Judaism (for starters – it’s actually its polar opposite), and that people should be very clear that, even if they support the Zionist paradise politically, they must still fully recognize that the Zionist paradise is shmad and a disaster for Jews (because that is simply the facts on every level – both spiritual and physical) and, most importantly, that it is only a Zionist entity, not a Jewish entity. Then, we will surely merit the nullification of all bad decrees CH”V and the coming of Moshiach BB”A.
