Militant Judaism
Militant Judaism is the extreme belief that Jews are the "chosen people" and have a divine status - it can manifest as racism and intolerance towards other religions and people, although often used by anti-semites to refer to all Jews their is considerable difference between the views of most Jews and those of the Militant Judaism movement.
Militant Jews believe they have the right to treat others as they see fit and are often extremelt hostile towards non-Jews and even Jews that do not share their extreme views. Most are Zionists.

Controversy
Militant Judaism has often been refered to a Zionism - which has caused considerable controvery, as listed below.. The term "Zionism" and "Zionist" are controversial due to many anti-semite groups using the term to justify the oppression of Jews or the Isreali state - to the point some mistakenly believe that those who oppose Zionism are inherently anti-semitic. Critics of the term believe it encourages a hatred or mistrust of all Jews and their culture, however others argue that this controversy has been used by some to silence criticisms of the more extreme sections of Zionism - who often have little to do with moderate Jews or the state. re!
