The prediction was not about a state like the State of Israel where 
the Torah is not  being observed  by far too many in its entirety.

Are you equating th\e present State of Israel with what RSRH 
considered the ideal for Eretz Yisroel, namely, a country based on 
the Torah?  RSRH wrote, "Thus shall you await the moment when you 
will be able once again to enter the Land, which was given to you so 
that you may observe the Torah in its entirety."

Is the Torah being observed by all residing in the State of Israel in 
its entirety?  I am sure you will agree that it is not.

The prediction was and still is correct.
