Zionism is the one thing where anti-semites and Jews (at least zionist Jews) agree.

Zionist Jews want it because it gives them their own country where they are not persecuted.

Anti-semites want it, because it means that the Jews are not in their country.

That's why even the literal Nazis supported zionism. Every Jew in Israel was one less Jew in Germany.

You get the same thing still today with the most right-wing politicians supporting Zionism/Israel. On the one hand because it's a way to keep Jews far away and on the other hand because it can be used as a "I'm supporting Israel, so surely I can't be a Nazi. Anyway, let's go shoot some Muslims."-kind of excuse.
