An Israeli commander claimed that hundreds of Israeli lives were saved recently when “the hand of God” stopped a Hamas rocket.
The Israeli commander described the attack on a Hebrew-language website:
A missile was fired from Gaza. Iron Dome precisely calculated [its trajectory]. We know where these missiles are going to land down to a radius of 200 meters. This particular missile was going to hit either the Azrieli Towers, the Kirya (Israel’s equivalent of the Pentagon) or [a central Tel Aviv railway station]. Hundreds could have died.
We fired the first [interceptor]. It missed. Second [interceptor]. It missed. This is very rare. I was in shock. At this point we had just four seconds until the missile lands. We had already notified emergency services to converge on the target location and had warned of a mass-casualty incident.
Suddenly, Iron Dome (which calculates wind speeds, among other things) shows a major wind coming from the east, a strong wind that … sends the missile into the sea. We were all stunned. I stood up and shouted, ‘There is a God!’
One Hamas member was asked why they couldn’t aim their rockets better and actually hit an Israeli target. He responded: “We do aim them, but their God changes their path in mid-air.”
The first prime minister of Israel, David Ben Gurion, said this once: “In Israel, in order to be a realist, you must believe in miracles.”
There are in fact hundreds of stories of the 1967 and 1973 wars Israel engaged that told of God’s intervention.
One news source called Arutz Sheva said it well:
The Jewish nation’s existence for six millennia is a miracle. There is no single Jewish life without a miracle. Miracle is an essential part of our belief; it is a gem of Jewish folklore. It is a source of our hope in the dark, and it is a gift of our dreams. And we know why – because these miracles are true.
What do you think? Were hundreds of Israelis saved from the Hamas rocket by the hand of God?
LOL! I thought even the 7th century had a more advanced mentality than that!
Or alternatively, maybe they’re describing what they’re actually seeing?
Nah. See PS 83. He has a plan.
Have you heard the new thing from leftists?
Obama didn’t ever take sides against Israel during this conflict he was 100% on Israel’s side. That UN vote, shutting down airline flights, shutting down visa applications, Kerry being sent to chastise Israel.... none of that ever happened. It was all our fantasy.

“...when their false moon god is equated with the God of Abraham.”
Which only proves that muzzies will hijack absolutely Anything!
BTW, God did assure Abraham that “I will bless those who bless you, and curse them who curse thee.” Except for oil revenue & shortsighted Western investment, the Muslim world is one oversized arid wasteland.
Which also proves that, “God is not mocked”.
Maybe God should consider a tidal wave covering all of Gaza....

That would help in identifying tunnels for sure... and where they exit.
