Reply To: The open miracles of the Iranian bombardment and the war in Gaza

I got this in a forward. Didn’t confirm if the author is real, but as this was the first time ballistic missile interceptions were performed, an act viewed as “hitting a bullet with a bullet”, the statistics he cites are real. Yes, what happened Shabbos was not a conventional military victory but a miracle. If you don’t understand, feel free to research ballistic missile interceptions so you can understand he miracle:

Words written by a Physics Professor who worked in Israel’s Defense Industry

I wanted to share something that is much more than a feeling. Something that comes from a real calculation: What happened in Israel on last Motzaei Shabbat was not less than the scale of the splitting of the Red Sea.

I am a Professor of physics and I worked for several years in the defense industry in Israel, in projects that are still the cutting edge technologies of the defence of the State of Israel. When I look at what happened on Motzai Shabbat, on a scientific level – it simply cannot happen!! Statistically.

The likelihood that everything, but really Everything works out, does not exist in complex systems like the defense systems that were used to defend Israel from the massive Iranian attack.

These systems have never, but never, not only in the State of Israel, been tried in real time!!

I took a pencil and dived into the calculations to check the statistic probability that such a result would materialize. The large number of events that had to be handled, when each missile or UAV is handled independently (that is, human error or some deviation of one operation, is not offset by other successful operations), compounds the chance of making a mistake.

With all the high technologies, a breach was expected in the defense of the skies of the State of Israel.

Even if we got 90% protection it would have been a miracle!!

What happened is that everyone, but everyone – the pilots, the systems operators and the technology operators acted as one man, at one moment in total unity. If this is not an act of G-d, then I no longer know what a miracle is.

It is Greater than the victory of the Six Day War or the War of Independence. Those wars can also be explained through natural events.
BUT
The rescue that took place for the people of Israel on Motzai Shabbat is simply impossible naturally. I believe that this miracle saved the lives of many people from Israel.

If the defense system had failed to intercept a number of cruise missiles, the result would have dragged us into a very complex war. I wouldn’t bet that next time it will work like this without Divine supervision. The simple proof of what I said is that the managers of the defense industries, who develop and manufacture these systems guarantee no more than 90% success!And we all saw, with our own eyes 99.9% !!!

Thank You Hashem!!

Please stop hijacking this thread with the usual “Empty Wagon” sound bites. The Brisker Rav zt”l, while hating the Zionists, did NOT avert his eyes from obvious miracles. He just said it wasn’t for the zionists. This is my central point: that there were obvious open miracles. Real Satmars can see them, just it’s maaseh Satan. (As well, real Satmars balance their anti-zionism with chessed and caring for other yidden. They also don’t hang out on ywn because Yiddish is their first language. ) The only ones who can’t see the miracles are the “Empty Wagon” fanboys, and I feel bad for you. You are missing out on a connection to Hashem that the Briskers have, even as they hate Zionists with the same passion as you.
