yichusdik -“My other grandfather and grandmother were yerushalmim, my grandfather went to the original eitz chaim yeshiva,”
And so did my Zaida go from Europe to Yerushalyim and my Bubba’s family who also came from Europe to Yerushalyim happened to be close to the Minchas Elozer (Munkatcher Rebbe). So it’s not a contradiction to have Yichus who are pro-Yishuv Haaretz and Not Tzionim like we know nowadays.
My family emigrated to this side of the Altlantic, but what happened to a lot that stayed there is they went with the flow.
At that time (30’s, 40’s & 50’s) you had to be a Odom Godol not to get swallowed up with the Zionist fervor!
