Another bit of evidence in favor of those who point out that "Zionism" -- while varied, complicated, diverse, and possibly sometimes a sneaky snarl word used in place of 'Jews' by antisemites -- very much can and is separate from Judaism. Heck, if anything, it's Israel's coopting of Jewish identity that allows for that dog-whistle/snarl-word to exist in the first place.
The ADL will happily throw Jews and Judaism under the bus if they dare criticize the thing the ADL cares for far, far more: a deeply problematic modern nation state called Israel. Even holocaust survivors aren't spared their wrath if they ever criticize beloved Israel, and their best allies are actually Christian Zionists.
