My God, Palestinians are being massacred en masse and tens of thousands of civilians are being written off as collateral. Back to reality, people - actions over words. Look at what Israel has done, look at who they've killed and how they've responded to criticism. Which word would you prefer is used to refer to uncritical supporters of Israel? Is there a word that can be used without legitimate criticism being painted as anti-semitic?

"Zioinist" has been the least offensive way of referring to those who uncritically support the Israeli state. This grouping includes fanatical Christians, obviously a good number of Jews, and a variety of other groups. Focus from those seeking to distract or obscure Israeli war crimes is on words, because they have very few actual actions to point at.
