diasporist

A supporter of diasporism (an ideology in contrast with Zionism which focuses on strengthening Jewish communities across the world).

Diasporism's limitations emerge starkly when one applies the concept to another people: the Palestinians. The statelessness of the Jewish past, after all, still describes the Palestinian present. The notion that Palestinians ought to accept their lot in the name of a high-minded ideology would strike Jewish diasporists, who tend to favor Palestinian self-determination, as noxious.

Unlike [Dory] Manor and other prominent figures among the "diasporists," there are also many opponents of the phenomenon and its significance, which the writers quoted in this story attribute to it.

Pertaining to or supporting Jewish diasporism.

The sovereign state of Israel is a 76-year-old material reality — one that is home to over seven-million Jews. So, for diasporist Jews to speak as though the legitimacy of Israel — and Israel alone amongst the nations — is up for debate, is rather like arguing for infanticide as nothing more than a continuation of the 20th-century debate around legal abortion.
