Letter from Richard Sherman to the New York Times calling out anti-Zionism as denying Zionism is denying Judaism

Dear Editor,

Voicer Nick Smith refuses to acknowledge that Zionism is 3500 years old--not 76 years old. ("Can't Last"). Judaism is based solely on the 3500-year-old Jewish Bible aka the Old Testament. That Jewish Bible has only ONE foundational narrative: the Jewish people's Return to Zion - what today is Israel. It is not complicated. Zionism is Judaism and has been for 3500 years. That is why Jerusalem is mentioned 659 times in the Jewish Bible.

To end Zionism is to end Judaism--the ultimate antisemitism.
