25. I have not found any poll that shows that most Jewish people believe in Zionism.

You can find polls where most Jewish people support the state of Israel, but I support the state of Israel as far as existing mainly because it already does and I don't support getting rid of it. I don't believe in Zionism but I still support the state of Israel existing so the poll that show that the majority of Jewish people supporting the state of Israel I believe doesn't show that they support Zionism necessarily. As far as where a Jewish person can feel safe I feel pretty correct in saying that they are much more safe in the US than in Israel in light of recent events of the past say 4 years.Antisemitism is indeed a problem, but I think that the antisemitism faced by Jewish people in the US is far less and far less lethal than the antisemitism the Jewish people face in the Middle East. So the being safe thing doesn't make any sense to me and seems to be a false argument.
