> I don’t think NYS or Lebanon shuts down their buses and their government offices on Yom Kippur
First, what source in Torah do you have that makes this a meaningful distinction. Is your implication that a government that keeps Torah law is a “Jewish” government? So, which governments are the ones keeping more Jewish law?
BTW I know places that indeed do this today exactly as described -closing government offices and public transport on Yom Kippur. Can they now claim to represent Jews worldwide as their leaders? Are you now obligated to support that government? Are you obligated to join their army?
This is all nonsense grasping at straws to try to kasher the zionist chazer.
