The rabbi from Shinova, who was the son of the Sanzer Rabbi of Poland said this, 100 years ago, at the dawn of Zionism:

"You should know, that when a Jew recites 'Hear O Israel, God is our Lord, God is One' he should have in mind to reject all idolatry in the world, and Zionism is also idolatry, and he must reject it as well."
