New Virtual Judah blog entry - Two States for Two Peoples
Masha:
It's a good article. I agree with the criticism of secular thinking. Without G-d Israel will not survive. But at the same time, I disagree with overly strong condemnatin of secular Zionism. I sometimes wonder if we would still have Israel if secular Zionists didn't make it happen. Let's dace it, it's not the religious Jews in their mass who brought about the state of Israel.

secular revionist zionism(jabotinsky) and kahanists were/are on the same team to a large extent.. certainly working together. Rabbi Kahane was a big admirer of Jabotinsky. He would come to speak with his father(rabbi charles kahane) when he(Meir) was a kid.
socialist zionism / left wing zionism, is the problem.. Many betar types are secular but all would be against throwing jews out of their homes.
It could get back to your argument though..
the ones that started zionism were socialist zionists, and they have been running the country.
But, They stopped the revionists(altalena)). The revionists also had the goal of a jewish state.
