Herzl, assigned to the Dreyfus trial in Paris by an Austrian newspaper, saw that anti-Antisemitism could not be eliminated in Europe. He sought another land for the Jewish People - Zion (Israel). He became a Zionist because he also realized that Israel, which has been the homeland of the Jewish people as long as Jewish people have existed, is the only realistic, rational choice of homeland for the Jewish people.
