Zionism is the idea of self determination of Jews in their homeland. You separate Jews from zionists. How would you call the Palestinian self determination movement, would you separate it from the rest of the Palestinians? Would you call that group for committing war crimes?

That‘s just two flavors of nationalism, an outdated idea from last couple of centuries that leads nowhere. The only reasonable way is federalism and deep political integration, where Israel, Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, maybe Jordan build a common state with free trade, free movement etc. That may sound a distant future at best, but the alternative is the same bloody status quo.
