It’s a tangled web @aasatru
The roots run deep. 🤔 To mix metaphors.
I haven’t actually read Herzl, but he reportedly wasn’t at all religious. He exploited what suited his ends. Part of his solution was that Jews would convert to Christianity. That’s probably his exploitation of the Christian mythology.
Herzl recognised that Palestine is too small to hold all of the world’s Jews. The ones that wouldn’t fit, he saw as dying out. His solution for the existing population of Palestine was evidently similarly brutal (in practice, if not in expressed theory).
