LerntminTayrah, I saw that reference there, once I followed your previous mention. The Shem Hagedolim is divided by letters. It doesn’t reach 219.

Yankel Berel, the Satmar Rav agreed that we should not dismantle the state, since that would be dangerous.

As for Maharal, he wouldn’t be a Daas Yochid if there’s no argument against it. Plenty of Halachos are based on one Sefer.

However, the Maharal is misquoted. You can find it in נצח ישראל סוף פרק כד. He writes that even if we are being killed we still shouldn’t try to break out and go against the oaths. (Not a question of Pikuach Nefesh, since it won’t help.) This was misquoted and mistranslated as if he saying that even if we are being forced, under pain of death, we still should hold strong and not violate this sin, hence those must be akin to the three cardinal sins. Check Rav Hartman’s footnotes there.
