Since when does Jewish automatically = Zionist? I've asked this before (since people like you always call us Zionists), but have yet to receive a straight answer. You do know the difference, right?
Right wing Jewish Americans that would smear Paul would likely be Zionists.
I've never met a Jew in my life that condemned the ideal of a Jewish state.
I've never seen any actively speak out against it aside from Noam Chomsky and Norm Finklestein.
Ok. I don't see what that has to do with my post. The point is that Zionism and Judaism are different. You can be a Zionist, but not be Jewish. In fact, in Israel there are quite a few Druze and Israeli Arabs who are strongly Zionist and in the US there are many Christians who are Zionists.

I'm aware you can be Zionist and not be Jewish. But how many Druze are there? They are fringe.
Same with Jesuits. Or any Christian Zionists....
Would you say there are more Athiest Democrats or Atheist Republicans?
There are way more Jews that support an Israeli State than not!

I am still confused as to what your getting at? A poster asked what is the difference between Judaism and Zionism, and I answered as best I could that Judaism is a religious and cultural world view and Zionism is a form of nationalism that promotes the idea of a Jewish state in the land of Israel.
Do you have any problems with this or are you just trying to stir up controversy?
