People made up tons of things about rav moshe; you probably heard this from his one zionist son in law. His talmidim, and sons, were and are not zionist in the least.
And how is the maharal a stretch? He simply says that we shouldn’t go even if the goyim are forcing us on pain of death… Not very complicated.
As for “sources” which just throw out kashas and ignore what’s readily available, as mizrachi rabbis do, I’ve been enough. I’ve also seen the pretzel they make out of the rambam, where they say that while the megilas ester on the rambam quotes the oaths to explain why the rambam holds there’s no mitzvah of yishuv EY, and the rambaN disagrees about the latter part, that we should “pasken” like the rambaN because he’s a lot bigger than… The megilas ester.
It’s purim torah, pardon the pun; all the ME is doing is explaining the shitah of the rambam; he’s not arguing on the rambaN.
I have no idea what makes you think the satmar rov said “thing that aren’t emes” to fight zionism. Did you ever learn his sefer? Or are you just listening to zionist rabbis?
Damoshe – I’ll try to get around to it; square’s points were more general and needed to be answered first
