I believe that many zionist arguments are enshrined in shas and halacha, for example, that all Yidden should be in Eretz Yisrael. As for the actual state itself, I have slight indifference toward it’s current nature, but great hope for the future.
The medinah is only the framework after all. Who set it up? Hashem, Ain Od Milvado (See: Rambam’s first principal of faith). It’s not too hard to see that even as things are it has served/facilitated a purpose; Jews being exposed to Torah and given the opportunity to come close to Hashem like nowhere else on Earth. There are literally hundreds of thousands of baalei teshuva and more by the year. It’s only a matter of time before the nature of the government and the medinah too becomes shomrei Torah umitzvos.
In the end, those who argue against the state are only really arguing against emunah.
