Aliyah, the Hebrew word meaning “ascending” or “going up”, is the word used to describe religious Jewish return to Israel, and has been used since ancient times – though as you can read on the Wikipedia page for ‘Anti-Zionism’, the word and idea has been open to interpretation, leading to a split among the religion’s followers.
Some are so opposed to the Zionist formation of the nation of Israel that they regularly, openly burn the Israeli flag.
