That story isn’t relevant here.
No, we don’t pray for Hashem to simply return us to our homeland; we pray for the redemption.
No, we are not being at all hypocritical in our prayers; it is actually the Zionists who are corrupting the same, of course.
For example, in viLiYerushalyim that we pray thrice daily, we ask G-d to return there with mercy and to dwell there as he stated and to build it speedily in our days a forever building and to establish the throne of David there speedily. None of that has any relevance to the Zionist abomination.
