What does the Star of David have to do with the Zionist movement?

∙ 15y ago
The Star of David was used as a Jewish symbol throughout the centuries, and was even used by the Nazis to identify Jews, when they were forced to wear it at all times.
It was in 1897 that the World Zionist Congress decided to adapt the symbol as a Zionist emblem, and, in the end, it was also introduced into the Israeli flag and many other Zionist Propaganda.
Just as the Cross is associated with Christianity, the Star of David represents either Judaism or Zionism (although they are not the same at all).
