Zionism is not and was not a response to the Holocaust. The settler-colonial zionist project pre-dates the Holocaust by decades.
The zionist narrative that so-called β€œisrael” was established because of the Holocaust is a post-facto narrative created to justify zionism.
The zionist narrative that all Holocaust survivors were/are zionists is also a post-facto narrative created to justify zionism.
zionism is a settler-colonial project. zionism was a settler-colonial project before the Holocaust began.
But most importantly, even if zionism *was* a response to the Holocaust (which, again, it is absolutely not) that would not justify even one bit what the zionists have done to the Palestinians. Nor would it erase the fact that zionism is a settler-colonial project.
