My question is, everyone knows that R Yoel was an anti Zionist. But why should one care what he says? R’ Yoel was not a gadol hador. He was a great Rebbe for HIS chasidim, but the majority of Jews are NOT his chasidim or even hold of him or his sefer. This does not mean he was not a great Rebbe.
So if he does not want to live in Israel, so be it. I don’t care. I also don’t care what he has to say about the topic because I do not hold of him either. If he is YOUR Rebbe, you follow him.
