Talk:Reform Zionism

Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 21 May 2024
Change "Reform Zionism, also known as Progressive Zionism, is the ideology of the Zionist arm of the Reform or Progressive branch of Judaism." to "Reform Zionism is the ideology of the Zionist arm of the Reform or Progressive branch of Judaism. Outside of North America, Reform Zionism is sometimes known as Progressive Zionism or Liberal or Progressive Religious Zionism, and is represented in the World Zionist Congress by ARZENU . In America, liberal or progressive Zionism generally refers to politically left-wing Zionists, some but not all of whom are Reform Zionists. Politically progressive Zionists are represented in the World Zionist Congress by Hatikvah. " Tysonsahib (talk) 16:36, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
