    Because it’s both? Jews can be both semites (ethnicity) and followers of Judaism (religion). Not all Jewish people are both. To make things more confusing, not all Jews are zionists, and not all Israelis are zionists.

      It depends on how you define the word ethnicity. Look it up and it can mean any group that shares a common religion, custom, language, etc.

      Debating if something is a religion or an ethnicity is like debating if it is a Group or a Club or a population.
