Zionism is a political movement that supports the self-determination and homeland for Jewish people in Israel. Zionists advocate for the existence and continuation of Israel, but is used by Israel's settler movement to justify expansion and occupation into internationally recognized Palestinian lands.
Christian Zionists and Muslim Zionists are those Christians and Muslims who support the return of Jewish people to Israel in accordance with biblical prophecies in the Old Testament/Torah.
'Greater Israel' refers to varying, often expansionist, territorial concepts for a Jewish state, ranging from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea (including the West Bank and Gaza) to biblical, broader borders stretching from the Nile to the Euphrates. It is a frequently contentious, right-wing Zionist ambition linked to settlement expansion and land annexation.
