<div><div><div><br></div><div>Another couple of incredible stories sent to me this week:<br>
</div><div><br><div style="margin-left:40px"><div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:12pt"><font><span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif;background-image:initial;background-repeat:initial">A true and amazing story as told by Ohad Shaked:</span></font></div>
<div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0.0001pt"><font><span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif;background-image:initial;background-repeat:initial">I received a phone call on Sunday from "A," one of the Iron Dome commanders, </span><span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif">who was a student of mine about 6 years ago. I was glad he called.</span></font></div>
<div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0.0001pt"><font><span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif"> </span></font></div><div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0.0001pt"><font><span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif">"Where can a person learn Torah in Ramat Gan?" He asked, me leaving me baffled being that he was far from Torah and mitzvot. </span></font></div>
<div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0.0001pt"><font><span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif"> </span></font></div><div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0.0001pt"><font><span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif">"I'm
going to be released in a couple of months, and I want to learn in a
yeshiva - I saw Hashem with my own eyes!" He said, nothing more and
nothing less.</span></font></div>
<div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0.0001pt"><font><span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif"> </span></font></div><div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0.0001pt"><font><span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif">"What happened?" I asked
him. </span></font></div><div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0.0001pt"><font><span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif"><br> </span><span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif">"A
missile was fired from Gaza. The Iron Dome can detect where the missile
is going to fall within a 200 meter radius. This particular missile was
heading to the Azrieli Towers, or to the railroad tracks. Either way,
hundreds could have paid with their lives. </span><span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif">We
sent the first "dome" and it missed. Then the second as well as the
third dome missed, which is a very strange and rare occurrence. To date,
only two other such cases occurred. I was in shock. We had four seconds
until there is no way back and the missile would hit. We had already
informed and dispatched emergency services, the police
and the fire department, to the location." </span></font></div><div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0.0001pt"><font><span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif"><br> </span><span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif">Then the commander spoke excitedly as I kept on listening. </span></font></div>
<div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0.0001pt"><font><span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif"><br> </span><span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif">"Suddenly,
without any preliminary design from the Iron Dome system (which
calculates the possible wind currents, etc.) a strong eastern wind blew -
a wind that we have no idea where it came from and dumped the missile
right into the sea. We were all in shock - we could not believe was we
were seeing. I stood up and started
screaming 'There is a G-d'! 'There is a G-d!' 'There is a G-d'!!! I saw
this miracle with my own eyes. No one told me about it, it was not
reported to me. I personally saw the Hand of Hashem fling the missile
into the sea!</span></font></div>
<div style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0.0001pt"><font><span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif"><br></span><span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif">"Of
course this was not reported for security reasons, but it's enough to
witness the miracles with our own eyes to know there is Hashem. I ran to
one of the religious soldiers and asked him to put on tefillin. I took
it upon myself to keep shabbat, and that was the very best shabbat I
have ever had."</span></font></div>

is what he told me. I was so excited that it even brought a tear to my
eye. "Ashrecha" (praisworthy are you) I said to him, "that you merited
to witness this incident and to understand that it's from Hashem."</span></font></div>

father of a soldier who is now in Gaza told how his son was informed on
Friday that his unit will not be going home for shabbat, which was a
problem because they did not have any provisions for shabbat. </span><span style="font-family:'Trebuchet MS',sans-serif">The
father ran to the supermarket to buy some things, as much dips and
salads as he could, then he stopped at the schwarma place in Petach
Tikva. He asked for a portion to be put into an aluminum tray and
explained that it was for his son who is in Gaza without food for
Shabbos. </span></font></div>

father.</span><br>
