Interestingly, how the use of the word Zion, and its offshoot, Zionism, can be, at the same time, held in Scriptural honor (how may times does it appear in the Jewish Scriptures); while at the same time, derision for its/their use has historical context as the basis for debate as a promise of the fulfillments for the Children of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob now fulfilled in the presence of Israel and the rationale for those who hate Israel for its very existence to continually demean its influences for reasons too few really understand; and the debate continues, for now.
