I'm sorry, but I find this to be a particularly anti-semitic statement. Jews
have ethnic traditions, culture, and history that have nothing to do with
religion. To remember and honor the history of the Holocaust, for examply,
must one be religiously "Jewish?" Going to synagogue, for instance?

Alister should note that the traditions of Zionism themselves, including
those of Theodore Herzl, all rely on non-religious formulations of Judaism.

Best,
David
