Anaya and Ann Foster - Thanx - Nationalism Exposed By Me Alone Here

In 1897 Theodr HERZL created the Zionist Movement, but his great work helped create the State of Israel in 1948. Where is the State of Zion? Perhaps he meant the Israelist Movement rather than Zionist? Long before USA and revisionism were born, the Prophet Nehemiah - in exile with The Chosen people in Persia - dreamed and worked for RETURN to, and REBUILDING of, the Walls of the TEMPLE in Zion: "The King [of Iran/Persia] said to me, 'What is it you want?' Then I prayed to the God of heaven, and I answered the King, "if it pleases the king and if your servant has found favour in his sight, let him send me to the city in JUDAH where my ancestors are buried so that I can rebuild it." READ, THINK, Write on after steps 1 and 2, even condemn me (PS fave sport)

A brief and intriguing history for Anaya and Ann. I've wondered where Theodr Herzl got the name Zionist for his movement. I'll have to learn more about the prophet Nehemiah--something for scholars to study! Faved! Robert
