Your comment is ridden with errors.

Above I was quoting Matis, not saying all that myself. (Matis provided more background in his original comment, including what Rav Elchanon ZTV’L said about Rabbi Kook.)

Neteurei Karta are from the Talmidei Hagra. They are not from the Satmar or an Chasidim for that matter. Hagoen Rav Amrom Blau ZTV’L though was close to the Satmar Rebbe ZTV’L. Your thoughts about them stem from ignorance.

I am very proud of the ads the Hisachdus puts out making clear to the umos haolam that Zionism is not Judaism. This has nothing to do with those meshuganas who falsely identify themselves today as being Neteurei Karta.

The reason that the Satmar Rebbe and the Litvishe Gedolim are accepted universally as Gedolim including by the Mizrachi, is simply because they are indisputably Gedolim. The Mizrachi has not produced anyone of the caliber of the Satmar Rebbe, Rav Shach, Rav Elchonan, Rav Elyashev, etc.

The Satmar Rebbe’s stand regarding the establishment of the medinah was not only the majority, it was almost the universal opinion held by Torah Judaism, including the Agudah and the Litvish Gedolim.

The “Chief Rabbi” of Eretz Yisroel was Hagoen Rav Yosef Chaim Sonnenfeld ZTV’L, not Rabbi Kook, despite his “title”.
