Neo-Zionism is a right-wing, nationalistic and religious ideology that appeared in Israel following the Six-Day War in 1967 and the capture of the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Neo-Zionists consider these lands part of Israel and advocate their settlement by Israeli Jews. Some go as far as advocating the expulsion of Arabs in accordance with their ultra Zionist beliefs. The ideology evolved in parallel with, and in opposition to, the conventional left-wing politics of Post-Zionism and Labor Zionism. Sociologist Uri Ram considers it as an "exclusionary, nationalist, even racist, and antidemocratic political-cultural trend" in Israel.〔 ==Ideology== Neo-Zionism emerged in the aftermath of the Six Day War and the Israeli conquest of Jerusalem and the West Bank.〔 Anita Shapira, Derek Jonathan Penslar, ''Israeli Historical Revisionism: from left to right'', Routledge, 2002, pp.57-58.〕 It emanated from members of the religious Gush Emunim settler movement.〔 Neo-Zionists consider that "secular Zionism", particularly the labor version, was too weak on nationalism and never understood the impossibility of Arabs and Jews living together in peace. They claim that the Arab attitude to Israel is inherently rooted in anti-Semitism and that it is a Zionist illusion to think living in peace and together with them is possible. They consider Arabs in Israel to be a fifth column and pose a demographic threat to the Jewish majority in Israel. From their point of view, the only solution to achieve peace is through "deterrence and retaliation"〔Uri Ram, (''The Future of the Past in Israel - A Sociology of Knowledge Approach'' ), in Benny Morris, ''Making Israel'', pp.210-211.〕 or the downright expulsion of Israeli Arabs and the Palestinian population of the occupied Palestinian Territories, to neighboring Arab states. For Neo-Zionism, "the weakness of Israeli Nationalism derives from his alienation of Jewish sources and culture (...). Only a new national-religious and orthodox coalition () cure Zionism of this moral bankruptcy".〔 Neo-Zionists view the land of Israel as the natural and Biblically mandated home of the Jewish people and assert that the goal of Jewish statehood is not only about creating a safe refuge for Jews but also about the national-historic destiny of the people of Israel in the land of Israel. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Neo-Zionism」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
