I want to repeat something Rav Gold of Har Nof once said about the 'secular' government and society of the current day of Israel. In this 'secular' country we have seen the biggest growth of Torah learning in the Galut then any other time in history (besides maybe Bavel) and in the meantime America's Jewish community is rapidly declining into assimilation ans intermarriage.
Israel may be secular but it's still Jewish, albeit not Frum. 80% of the population fasts on Yom Kippur (In America it's probably more like 15% but I'm just guessing) everybody speaks Hebrew, Jewish identification is very high, Jewish birth rate are through the roof and going higher, and even if someone doesn't marry a Frum person, they still in all likelihood will end up marrying a Jew.
The topic of Yerida is a different topic for later, but right now the point I want to make is that Israel is not the problem, it's the solution to all of the 'problems' that Jews face here in America.
