There’s no such thing as being “partially” back in the Land. Rav Shlomo Katz and the checra of Shirat David unpack Rav Ginsburgh’s clarity: our return to Eretz Yisrael must be full—geographically, spiritually, and existentially. Giving up even one inch of the Land isn’t just a strategic or political mistake. It’s a betrayal of the gift from Above and a crack in our national soul.
Rav Shlomo brings down the Rebbe’s powerful stance: the argument isn't merely about security (though that's real), it's about emunah. Either the Torah is our only authority, or it isn’t. Either we're truly back in our Land, or we're still in exile—even while living here. That’s the line in the sand.
And yet, it’s not a call for cynicism or judgment. Quite the opposite: it’s a call to love with full vision, with sensitivity, and with uncompromising truth. The vision of redemption isn’t exclusive. It’s complete. But to make it real, we have to be all in.
