Oh Uh! Here comes another one..
(..a day when all the Jewish Nation joins together) Funny, I’ve not seen this in any siddur, Jewish sefer etc. In fact until a minute ago I didn’t even know of such an existence. I mean it.
(..when we strike back with our own army we sanctify..) Really? Where does that say? I thought one makes a Kiddush HaShem by acting decently with Midos Tovos and doing HaShem’s mitzvohs. Now of course one must defend himself, but making it a “kiddush HaShem”? Highly doubt it. Rashi says nothing about the honor part, just that one who stands up against Jews is as if he stands up against HaShem.
(..we finally have a little joy..) Actually not. Now, there are a lot of Yidden living in Eretz Yisroel, learning and doing mitzvhos, more now than ever before. But we’re still in Galus. Same as before. Actually a bit worse. Never before has there been such a mass scalse “bilbul hamoach”. Kedusha and tuma mixed and mashed together. A so-called “Medinat Yisroel” built upon foundations of secular anti-Torah and anti-HaShem r”l values and idealism. So the present state of affairs has nothing in common with what Torah true Jews are awaiting for. Sorry, not in the least any “etchalta degeulah”.
