The Zionist regime is a political term that some opponents use instead of the Israeli government. In the political literature of the Islamic Republic of Iran, this title and similar titles such as the occupation regime of Quds are used to name Israeli government.[1] Hamas and Lebanon's Hezbollah groups also use this term in their literature to refer to the Israeli government. They also use the term Zionists and occupiers for non-Palestinian citizens of Israel, especially its government and military forces.[2]
Some researchers consider the existential philosophy of the formation of the state of Israel to be derived from the theory of Zionism, and therefore they call the ruling regime of that country the Zionist regime.[3][citation needed]
Opponents of Israel call the entire country of Israel and those parts of the Palestinian land occupied by Israel, occupied Palestine.[4]
