Can someone define the term "Hindu Zionist"?
Hindus are followers of Hinduism.
Zionists are people who advocated the creation of Zion(homeland in Land of Israel) for Jews. Before the creation of Israel, there was immense lobbying by Jewish elite all over the world to convince leaders and political figures to approve the idea of Zionism. After creation of Israel this is being used for people who support the existence of Israel.
The term Hindu Zionist is misleading in the sense that it sometimes conveys the incorrect meaning that all Hindus are Zionists.
The friendly gestures of Indian Government towards Israel are regarded as Hindu-Israeli co-operation and hence Hindu-Zionists. Added to this the suport of radical Hindutva organizations like RSS for Zionism created such an impression among Islamic countries who regard RSS's view as majority Hindus' view.
Among popular culture, Zion also refers to the last human city in 'The Matrix' series.(No relation whatsoever to the Jewish Zion).
Please point out any factual errors.
