US Defence Secretary, Austin:
I spoke with Israeli Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant today following todayโs outrageous act of aggression by Iran against Israel. The Minister and I expressed mutual appreciation for the coordinated defence of Israel against nearly 200 ballistic missiles launched by Iran and committed to remaining in close contact. I also expressed my deepest condolences to the families impacted by the horrific and deadly terrorist shooting in Israel.๐บ๐ธ๐บ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ฑโฅ๏ธ

A cartoon by the Iranian opposition compares the Iranian missile attack to the pager attack attributed to Israel:
An attack of 200 missiles kills one Palestinian.
Compared to:
A "Boom" message on a pager: 54 dead and 2750 injured.

Lindsey Graham ๐บ๐ธ:
This is a moment of choosing for the free world regarding Iran.
The Ayatollah and Iranian regime are religious Nazis who want to destroy the state of Israel โ their words, not mine. They want to purify Islam and attack the United States โ again, their words, not mine.
This missile attack against Israel should be the breaking point and I would urge the Biden Administration to coordinate an overwhelming response with Israel, starting with Iranโs ability to refine oil.
These oil refineries need to be hit and hit hard because that is the source of cash for the regime to perpetrate their terror.
My prayers are with the people of Israel, and may God continue to bless Israel. ๐บ๐ธโฅ๏ธ๐ฎ๐ฑ

Israeli troops enter a Hezbollah underground facility in southern Lebanon and find it well stocked for an invasion of northern Israel.
Hezbollah planned to use this and many other tunnel and bunker systems like it to "conquer the Galilee."

Donald Trump told the Israeli-American Council last night that Iran was only able to attack Israel as it did because the Biden Admin had revitalized it with cash injections.
Said Trump:
He added that when he was president, Iran was kept in check and starved for the resources needed to make war.
And it will be again if he wins in November.

"The world is on fire and spiraling out of control. We have no leadership, no one running the country."

A very powerful message from Hillel Fuld:
I really donโt think you understand the absolute miracles that we witnessed last night here in Israel.
In fact, I am sure you donโt.
Letโs break this down.
Israel has three air defense systems, each one of them a technological wonder and thatโs not me saying it. Thatโs Dr. Gold who basically invented the Iron Dome who told me that. The level and sophistication of the Iron Dome is simply unparalleled.
But the Iron Dome only knows how to detonate short range rockets or missiles within a 70 km range, give or take.
Then Israel has the Davidโs Sling system. That knows how to deal with mid range missiles up to approximately 300 km.
Then we have the Arrow system that literally detonates missiles that can fly outside of the earthโs atmosphere. That has a range of about 2,400 km!! ๐คฏ
Last night, as Iran rained down ballistic missiles on Israel, all three defense systems were activated and implemented to perfection.
The chances of all of these incredibly complex systems working in unison as flawlessly as they did last night, are basically non existent.
If one thing went wrong, if one of those ballistic missiles hit an apartment building, a shopping center, or an army base, we would now be burying hundreds of Israelis.
And all of that is not even the biggest miracle.
A few hours ago, I got a WhatsApp message from a good friend who is a senior executive at Microsoft and who wasnโt exactly a God fearing Jew. Until yesterday.
Here is what he wrote me.
โIf youโre looking for miracles man - last night I started believing. Missiles hit all around me but none of them hit my house or any house, for that matter.โ
He elaborated some more and shared info about the missiles that he watched land just meters away from very strategic places in Israel, to say the least.
Each one of those defense systems is, in and of itself, pretty miraculous, but what is even more insane is the low casualty numbers from the rockets and missiles that weโre NOT intercepted.
Where did those missiles go? Iโll tell you where. They landed in sand, in water, and in โEmpty spacesโ.
Have you been to Israel? Itโs a microscopic country. What empty spaces? Where are these empty spaces? ๐คทโโ๏ธ
How have hundreds of Iranian ballistic missiles all either get detonated by miraculous systems or totally miss their mark and land in empty spaces causing zero casualties and minimal damage?!
How??
Listen, I get it. This thought process begs the question, where was God during the horrible terrorist attack yesterday? Where was He on October 7th? Where was He during the holocaust?
All valid questions that require a very serious nuanced conversation.
But if you know anything about what had to happen last night and throughout this war in general, for such a low number of casualties, youโll know that what we witnessed last night was the equivalent of God splitting the sea right before our eyes.
Guess what. When God split the sea, there were those who didnโt believe it was a miracle and didnโt jump in. And there are also those who feel the need to explain it naturally. Ok, thatโs fine.
You donโt want to call yesterday an act of God? Thatโs your choice, but like my Microsoft friend, if you look at these events objectively, youโd have a really hard time seeing those hundreds of deadly missiles land in empty spaces and not see the hand of God.
Last night was an incredible display of the collaboration between two of the powers that protect the Jewish people: The IDF and Hashem.
Last night will go down in history right alongside many of Israelโs accomplishments in this war including the beepers and the unprecedented low ratio between combatant and civilian, as a military operation the likes of which the world has never seen. Ever!
Last night will be analyzed by military strategists and experts for generations.
Last night, we witnessed history.
Last night we witnessed open miracles.
Last night, we witnessed God in all His glory watching over His children.
