I think where it's a question of jargon then it's fairer than otherwise to say that you weren't taught it and there was no reason per se that you should have known that Herzl was a Zionist. If it was a current affairs question then I think maybe they could reasonably expect you to pick up stuff from wider reading that wasn't necessarily right in front of your eyes and given to you as a spoon-fed thing.
