Health: You’re really getting desperate! Common sense that it meant without irrigation? Seriously?
You say almost all gedolim were against the medinah. I don’t think it’s true. R’ Frank, R’ Sorotzkin, and R’ SZ Auerbach zt”l were 3 of the biggest Rabbonim of their generations. R’ SZ was considered the posek hador of Eretz Yisroel (together with R’ Moshe zt”l who was his counterpart in America). You have no problem quoting R’ Elyashiv zt”l even as a daas yochid when it suits you because he was the gadol hador, but when a previous gadol says something you don’t like, you’ll say that other argue on him? You’re such a hypocrite.
Face facts. Many major Rabbonim held that the founding of the state of Israel was a sign of the beginning of the geulah. You don’t like it? Most people really don’t care. But maybe, just maybe, if you just disagreed respectfully instead of showing hatred towards Zionists, Mashiach would come sooner.
