DaasYochid, thank you.
lesschumras and Sam2:
I never argued that Zionism was the greatest form of shmad and I also did not argue that a typical Israeli Zionist should be ch”V mistreated in any way. I have, in the past, written that your typical Israeli Zionist is likely a tinok sheNishba to Zionism. But the theology of Zionism, its actions, and its proponents should still be understood for what those and they are.
Sam2, I don’t understand how you come up with “no more Zionists of the form”. As the Brisker Rov wrote and as is simple historical fact, Zionism’s whole reason for existence is shmad. Although the Zionists have changed tactics somewhat since the yaldei Tehran atrocities, the State and its IDF are still engaged in shmad in many levels and ways.
Again, because it seems that very few people get this, the Brisker Rav wrote, and is a matter of plain history, that the Zionists need a state in order to shmad (not the other way around, terrible as even that would be).
