I empathize, however,  with your predicament: having voted with their feet against the core tenet of Zionism (aliyah, or emigration to Israel) many try to compensate for their repudiation of Zionism's central mission by becoming "more Israeli than the Israelis" (jingoistic cheerleaders).

But they get no relief: criticized here for defending the indefensible (occupation, apartheid in the West Bank, killing of children) they are also sneered at in Israel for turning their backs on Zionism's very raison d'être.

In the words of Jewish theologian Marc Ellis,  hence "the strained arguments, the twisted logic, the shrill voices."
