How Did Zionism Begin?

Glad you asked...
Zionism began due to the extradition of a number of Jewish people from the Roman Palestine. Zionism means the return of those Jews that were exiled. The movement displayed the desire of the people of this faith to maintain their original faith. You can find more information here: http://www.zionism.netfirms.com/zionism_...

Zionism began in the 19th century as a response by secular Jews to antisemitism in Europe. The movement gained momentum after the holocaust and led to the establishment of Israel in 1948.
