Avi K: The three shvuos might not be Halachic but they are a reality. If we (or the goyim) are ‘over’ on the shvua there will be consequences. 1) Who said one shvua is talui in another shvua? 2) Who exactly agreed to a jewish state? The Arab countries surrounding Israel never agreed. It could be argued that since the British who were the rulers of Eretz Yisrael at the time, agreed to give their country to the jews, they were not oleh bachoma. However, they only ‘agreed’ because of zionist diplomatic pressure, and terrorist activity by etzel and lechi and others. So that would definitely be oleh bachoma. (Interesting that israel was founded on terrorism and now they are being terrorized. The shvua is reality.)
