| | I checked my Objectivist Research CD-ROM and found no reference to "Zion" but did find a few passages mentioning Israel. This one seemed most relevant from "The Lessons of Vietnam" in The Voice of Reason:
The first intended victim of the new isolationism will probably be Israel--if the "antiwar" efforts of the new isolationists succeed. (Israel and Taiwan are the two countries that need and deserve U.S. help--not in the name of international altruism, but by reason of actual U.S. national interests in the Mediterranean and the Pacific.) I did a search for "Zionist" and found this in the chapter on "Reason" in Objectivism: The Philosophy of Ayn Rand by Leonard Peikoff:
The reason that Objectivism rejects agnosticism should now be clear. This term applies not only to the question of God, but also to many other issues, such as ESP, reincarnation, demonic possession, astrology, the Arab claim of an international Zionist conspiracy, and the Marxist claim that the state will wither away. I hope this helps.
