The people supporting China, Cuba, Vietnam, Venezuela, etc. and "critically supporting" Russia in its anti-Western stance are generally Marxists, and none of these people support Israel, and none fully support Russia. Israel has some few people that support the faux-Socialist "Kibbutz" system, but these people are anti-China, anti-Cuba, anti-Vietnam, anti-Venezuela, etc.
That's why I am saying it's confusing the conversation, your "tankie" doesn't hold all of the views you mentioned, you're describing separate groups under one label, a label almost always used for Marxists, and as such it leads to obfuscation of your actual message, hence confusion from other users.
The label itself is meaningless
I mean, I agree that the term is meaningless, but surely you can see why your usage of it to describe Zionists caused confusion, right?
