musser zoger, no, it does not apply to Ponevezh. First, they fly the flag for political reasons. ViHaKesef YaAneh es HaKol. Second, merely flying the flag is not necessarily celebrating the day. They are not, CH”V, Zionists.
Regarding the pathetic accusation of trolling, I was not the one who “brought Zionism in”; I replied to a post that did so.
As I’ve mentioned in other threads, the Brisker Rov’s statement is factual history, in addition to daas Torah. Read the writings of Zionists. Their goal was (and still is) to create a new Jew, a Hebrew to replace Jews, replacing Judaism and the Torah with, lihavdil, Zionism, CH”V. This was and is very much not some innocent nationalist movement.
As the Brisker Rov wrote, the Zionists shmad not in order to have a State, but, rather, the Zionists need a State in order to shmad.
