Missiles, Miracles, Might - The Jewish Truth Bomb

In this intense episode of Israel News Talk Radio, host Lenny Goldberg delivers a fiery call to spiritual and strategic self-reliance for the State of Israel. Drawing on biblical history, particularly the story of King Hezekiah and the Assyrian siege of Jerusalem, Goldberg argues that the ongoing missile attacks from Iran and Hezbollah are not signs of failure but evidence of divine protection—miracles that preserve Israel despite overwhelming odds. He emphasizes that miracles do not mean zero casualties, but rather that outcomes are far better than they could have been. The core message centers on the concept of 'Am Livedad Yishkon'—a nation that dwells alone—urging Jews to abandon dependence on foreign allies, especially the United States, and instead trust fully in God. Goldberg cites Rabbi Meir Kahane’s 1979 book *Emunah ve-Geulah* to show how eerily accurate the rabbi’s warnings were about Arab determination, technological buildup, and the illusion of peace. He warns that America’s inconsistent support and internal political instability make it an unreliable ally, and that true redemption requires bold, offensive action and national self-sufficiency. The episode concludes with a powerful theological argument: just as the Exodus from Egypt was technically initiated by Pharaoh’s permission for a three-day leave, so too was Israel’s founding technically enabled by the UN vote—but in both cases, the real redemption came through divine will and Jewish courage alone.
