A direct hit of Palestinian Islamic Jihad rocket in Ashkelon, Operation Breaking Dawn 2022

By Hillel Fuld

I really didn’t want to write this post until Operation Breaking Dawn officially ended in August. Now, as we approach Elul, I feel the open miracles can offer inspiration for the coming year and beyond.

Yes, we have Iron Dome, which is a miracle in and of itself, but I’m not talking about that kind of miracle. I am talking “splitting the sea” kind of miracle.

A thousand rockets from Gaza. Here are some of the exact numbers.

935 rockets fired by PIJ, 160 fell short in Gaza, 775 crossed into Israeli territory and 300 heading toward populated areas intercepted by Iron Dome (96% interception rate).

I want to talk about the 775. How do you explain 775 rockets falling into a tiny country smaller than New Jersey with zero casualties? Not even any serious injuries. Some of these rockets fell on buildings and in heavily populated centers. What a “coincidence” that no one was there at that moment.

Well, there was one injury on our side. And he’s a “Palestinian” from Hebron who was in Ashkelon when the rocket struck.

So not one Jew was seriously harmed by 935 rockets aimed at populated areas with one goal: To kill as many Jews as possible.

Does that make sense to you? Is that logical or is that a miracle?

So maybe the rockets aren’t that deadly, you say? Ok, that makes sense. Except one thing. The rockets that fell short and didn’t make it into Israel killed countless people on the Gaza side. Apparently they are pretty dangerous.

These savages aimed rockets at Tel Aviv, at Jerusalem, at Ben Gurion Airport and not one person was harmed. Of course, on our side, we did the exact opposite. Pinpoint targeting of the bad guys with incredible precision and success. Even the big wins where we took out a senior commander were called off multiple times because kids were spotted in the area.

I don’t know about you but I see blatant miracles in the events of the past month. When people find it hard to connect to G-d considering the tragedies around us, consider the open miracles as well to prepare to open your hearts to ask for forgiveness and blessings in the new year.
