The original posting perhaps understands the matter better than he realizes. In Imperial Russia a prayer was publicly said for the Czar because even though we hated him but because we feared him – our actual prayers were answered and the ??? ended up in front of a firing squad along with the rest of his family.
So does the State of Israel and its army stand in a similar capacity to the Romanov family and their army (which they saw as a personal possession)? By starting a war against the Muslim world the medinah has put not only its soldier but all of klal Yisrael in mortal dangers. However the Zionists don’t rely on terror to win support (they prefer bribery, which works quite nicely – they’ve won massive support from hareidim by handing out lots of goodies), and unlike the Czar, the Zionists dont’ even believe in prayer or religion (so they don’t look at whether frum Yidden say a prayer, or not, as something significant). I’m sure that if the zionists became more czar-like in their approach to the Bnei Torah (e.g. rounding them up for military service), many Jews would pray for the future of the Medinah, and will probably be horrified when they the bloodbath when their prayers and answered as they inevitably will be.
But at present, most of us prefer to hope that the zionists will disappear or even better, do tseuvah and return to Torah. Even Neturei Karta doesn’t want to see the zionist leadership meeting the same fate as the Romanovs.
