A head of Yeshiva in Jaffa posted this message (and I am ROUGHLY paraphrasing into English from my husband ):
The Rosh Yeshiva says, "One of my students who I haven't heard from in many years contacted me today to ask where I study Torah. I was surprised by his question, since I know for sure that he is not observing Torah and mitzvot. So, I asked him why he wanted to know, and this was his response received back (I am not allowed to give his name):
"I observed the hand of Gd today with my own eyes. Now I know FOR SURE that there is a Gd!! No one told it to me...I didn't hear it from someone else...I saw this happen with my own eyes. I am an integral part of the iron dome operation. What we do here is an exact science and I cannot give many details of what we do. The other day we knew that a missile was headed directly for Tel Aviv...aimed at one of the 3 big towers, a shopping center in the middle of the city. We sent up one missile to intercept it, and we missed. We sent a second one, and we missed. We sent a third one to intercept...and we missed. Something even remotely like this has only happened other other time ever that I am aware of. We are very exact and very good at what we do. We do not miss. So to miss 3 times is not possible. By this time, disaster was eminent. We alerted all of the emergency crews within and around Tel Aviv to evacuate, but by this time there was little that could be done. Their missile was only minutes from detonation. We began the procedure of sending off one final missile to try and intercept it just before it came down, but we knew that casualties would still be imminent. Now, you must understand, our calculations based on physics and aerodynamics and weather (wind, atmosphere, humidity) are complete...there is NOTHING we don't take into account. This is how it is able to work so precisely. But all of a sudden, as we were scrambling to do anything and everything we could to save Tel Aviv, all of a sudden OUT OF NOWHERE came up a huge wind...one that was not on the radar...one that DID NOT EXIST before...and blew the missile from over Tel Aviv all the way into the Sea and dropped it off exactly safely into the water where no one was injured!!! You must understand...there was NO WIND...and then there was A HUGE WIND. This is not a couple of inches of a "move" that any gentle breeze could influence...this is MILES. It was nothing other than the hand of Gd!! I saw it with my very own eyes!!! The wind was not there before and it was not there after. It didn't come from somewhere, it came from NOWHERE. And after it moved the missile to the sea, it disappeared! So, after seeing this, I can no longer deny the existence of Gd. I put tfellin on right after this, and I took upon myself to keep Shabbat. Yesterday was my first Shabbat to keep and it was the best Shabbat of my life." this is from a friend's friend who lives in israel. wow!
It was nothing other than the hand of Gd!!

Beautiful! All praise and glory to Him.
There are some details that make the story sound incorrect - minutes would give time for more attempts, for example.

Near the beginning of the post is this: ...ROUGHLY paraphrasing into English...
So I can see how “seconds” could become “minutes”.
Even if this story turned out to be bogus, my faith in Him remains unshaken. He can and does perform miracles all of the time.
... and He does not require lasers to make them happen. :)
Ping
Amen!

It probably should have been translated as moments instead of minutes.
Definitely tied to the four blood Moons.
Thank you for posting this. There are many things we do not fully understand. We can nevertheless be grateful.
God will not allow Israel to be destroyed by Satan’s minions. In Zachariah 2: 4 God told the Israelites “ I will put a ring of fire around Jerusalem.” That “ring of fire” is the iron dome system. Case closed.
I actually wanted to reply privately, but my account be too new... I believe you only believe in our old Testament, so I will quote from there - even though there be many scriptures stating that God will protect Jerusalem. Jews is His chosen people and He will keep His promise to protect them. No matter how hard Hamas (or his followers try) they can never win in a war against God!
Isaiah 31 Good News Translation (GNT)
God Will Protect Jerusalem
31 Those who go to Egypt for help are doomed! They are relying on Egypt’s vast military strength—horses, chariots, and soldiers. But they do not rely on the Lord, the holy God of Israel, or ask him for help. 2 He knows what he is doing! He sends disaster. He carries out his threats to punish evil people and those who protect them. 3 The Egyptians are not gods—they are only human. Their horses are not supernatural. When the Lord acts, the strong nation will crumble, and the weak nation it helped will fall. Both of them will be destroyed.
4 The Lord said to me, “No matter how shepherds yell and shout, they can’t scare away a lion from an animal that it has killed; in the same way, there is nothing that can keep me, the Lord Almighty, from protecting Mount Zion. 5 Just as a bird hovers over its nest to protect its young, so I, the Lord Almighty, will protect Jerusalem and defend it.”
And as Isaiah 62:6 states -
I have posted watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem;
they will never be silent day or night.
