The saddest part is how the fallacies of Zionism blind even sincere men who try to blend Zionism with Torah. Rabbi Riskin is a man who has done more good than most of us and brought many Jews back to Torah. Now, he sadly is casting his lot with those who will allow all kinds of erev rav into Am Yisroel, and equating Zionist practice with Jewish practice in defense of his position.
Like Rav Kook, Rabbi Riskin is not a rosho or a rotzeach. But both try unsuccessfully to metaher the tuma of Zionism, rather than to fight it the right way which is bringing Jews back to pure Torah and gently (or not so gently in the case of those who respond only to Rav Amnon Yitzchak shlit”a’s confrontational style) pointing out the total fallacy inherent in Zionism and showing how it is not a part of Judaism but rather another errant offshoot of the Haskalah (which should be spelled hay-samach-kuf-lamed-hay meloshon skila.)
