I don’t think I am “hiding the ball” about anything we are talking. Everything I am saying is mainstream classic judaism as well documented in the major seforim of chazal,rishonim, and achronim.
“Klal yisroel” means “achicah b’mitzvos”, that is to say my “brothers” are those who are classified by the Torah as being part of klal yisroel. You can read the Rambam in Hilchos Mamarim as well as his commentary on perek “Kol Yisroel”.
It’s not my business personally to figure out how many people are in Klal Yisroel, but since you asked I would point you to the most obvious external feature of someone who is presumed to be NOT part of klal is anyone who is not publicly keeping Shabbos. The same surveys that would provide you with a population count of the medina also provide a speculation that a large majority of those self-identified “Jews” do not claim to keep shabbos.

Regarding my statement about dismantling the medina. I said “I don’t care to imagine” because it’s not something I am practically enabled to do nor is it a position of control that I seek.
The whole hashkafic foundation of the “three oaths” specifically and the gulis generally is specifically that we Jews as a nation are NOT allowed to do physical hishtadlus (like non-jewish nations) to survive as a nation. We are supposed to specifically make ourselves vulnerable to the “70 wolves” that surround us by not engaging in their “derech hateva” politics. We are specially supposed to turn to Hashem, and Hashem alone, to protect and rescue us as a nation, in order to show to the world (and even more so to ourselves) that we are a holy nation that is not guided by the natural order.
This is the exact tikkin of gulis and exactly why the shevios are taught as such.
So, if the goal of gulis is BITEL and to NOT take control of the national fate, but rather to explicitly and adamantly rely only on Hashem, you can understand how absurd your question is about “if you were prime minister…” Someone, chalila, wanting to be prime minister is exactly them being a zionist. This is what zionists call “self determination”.
Everything I wrote above has zero to do with me or my feelings or caring about anything. The above is true because it is what the Torah teaches us, as least as per my understanding. So, please refrain from attacking whoever you think I am simply because you are motivated to reject what I say.
