With all the suppression in publication, there are enough letters still extant from Gedolei Lita regarding the New Yishuv, and, sorry to hurt your feelings, they definitely aren’t all anti Zionist. Many were, and many, yes, MANY, were not. Polish Rebbes were more leaning against the movement, yet, once again, it wasn’t an overwhelming majority either. The Hungarians, led by the Munkatcher Ruv, were extremely opposed, but, again, in chasidish circles. Since the majority of Hungarian orthodoxy was NOT chassidish before the war, even this statistic of extreme opposition is limited in scope.
