Just Emes:
You really need a new screen name, in my very humble opinion.
Regarding the rest of your post, you still refuse to understand the basic truth about the State and Zionism that any student of history is well aware and that Rab Chaim Brisker foresaw even in his life time:
no, contrary to your repetitive Zionist propaganda, the State is not neutral and democratic. It is shmad.
As Rav Chaim wrote, it’s not that the Zionists want a State and therefore resort to shmad to achieve that end; rather, the reason the Zionists want a state is that they want to shmad.
Even according to your story, Rav Moshe did NOT hold it was not a problem. All he held was that the reason the State was founded was that the “B”D of Klal Yisrael” paskened that it should be founded. That doesn’t mean that he held that this “B”D” was correct in their psak. All it means is that because that B”D concluded this way, that therefore Hashem did their will.
