    1. R Feldman seems to rule out attending such events.

    2. Definitely there is a tzad.
      You seemed to have not read Rav Feldman's letter. (BTW, he can be contacted for clarification, if you seek one.)

    3. Of course they sang hatikvah, as they do as most government functions in Israel, which includes Charedim at all levels, whether as dayanim, MKs, or stam employees. No one has a problem with that.
