Re: [Cz-L] Diasporism

Now I got it !
  Diasporism is when you live in the States and come 5 times
    every year to see your folks in Ramat Gan.
  Zionism is when you live in Ramat Gan and go 5 times per year
   to Staten Island to see your kids and grandchildren.

    Diazionism is when you work in Shannon, Ireland as an air traffic
     controller,
