some > our obligation to completely rely on heaven to protect our nation in exile
With all due respect, this sounds like kefirah to me, maybe you are not expressing yourself well. Or, as I said before, you are holding at a level that is not possible for most other Yidden, but a tzaddik like that will have rachmonus on us, poshuteh yidden.
are you limiting this “completely rely” to golus? So, when Ramban was challenged to a debate – he should not have argued against their religion? Rambam should not have run away from Spain? Polish Jews were wrong forming vaad arba artzos? all medieval shtadlanim were wrong asking for kings’ protection?
or are you limiting it only to the issue of mass aliya to EY? So, you prefer non-religious Jews in 19-20th centuries who became communists to those who became Zionists?
