The Zionist Jew is one who believes modern Israel is a provision by God.

Israel is one of the the most atheist countries on the earth at 60% atheist.

The sentiment you are noticing is not religious. It is feelings of ethnic superiority and disdain for goyim.

I am aware that there is that supremacist mindset amongst the non-Torah observant Jews, yes.

Secularism is a large and declining component of Israeli society.

A quick search turns up this on Wikipedia, certainly a pro-atheist site:

“Irreligion in Israel is difficult to measure. Though Israeli Jewish society is highly secularized when compared to the rest of the Middle East, the importance of religion in state life leaves little room for total disengagement from it. Some 20% of Israeli Jews do not believe in a deity, and some 15% claim to observe no religious practices.”

You may wish to do further research to confirm real numbers. But your suggestion that Israeli Jews are “60% atheist” is not yet supported by data.

A different data point:

"An Israeli Central Bureau of Statistics survey published in 2021 found that among Israeli Jews over the age of 20, about 45 percent identified as secular or not religious, while 33% said they practiced “traditional” religious worship. Ultra-Orthodox Jews, known as Haredim in Hebrew, made up 10%."
