Israel Supplies Germany With Air Defense System

 The Jews are truly a blessing to the entire world!

Just imagine this story.  80 years ago the Germans were rounding up all the Jews in Europe and murdering them in the most heinous fashion.  Now today the Jews of Israel have installed an air defense system into Germany to protect them from the Russians.

When Israel unveiled the Arrow-3 system in Germany last week to protect it from a potential Russian ballistic missile attack, only 80 years after the Holocaust, reality was defying human imagination, former IDF air defense chief Brig.-Gen. Ran Kochav has told The Jerusalem Post.

Noting that this process turns history on its head, he said, "Less than 80 years after the Luftwaffe planes terrorized Europe and destroyed our people, the Jewish state provides Germany with the umbrella that will protect its skies. This is the triumph of the Israeli spirit and resilience."

“There is a very deep significance in the fact that Germany, 80 years after the Holocaust, is choosing Israeli technology to protect its citizens. This testifies to the path that the two countries have traveled and the mutual trust that has been built," stated Kochav.

Kochav recounted to the Post how he suddenly became a commander for an Arrow battery overnight when the prior commander was fired.

Though he was higher ranked, Kochav said he underwent a series of basic courses with brand new non-officer soldiers for several weeks, learning about its weaponry, its monitoring functions, its command and control systems, and its radar systems.

He eventually became commander not only of one Arrow battery, but of all of them, and eventually of the entire IDF Air Defense Command.

While Kochav had tremendous pride in his Arrow unit, he told the Post that he was very disappointed when the Second Lebanon War came in 2006, and his unit's high level of operational readiness did not match the much lower quality rocket threat which Hezbollah showered over northern Israel.

It would be almost half a year later before Israel would produce the Iron Dome to combat lower grade rocket threats, given that Jerusalem started developing the Arrow much earlier after being attacked by Iraqi ballistic missiles during the 1991 Gulf War.

Another personal story Kochav shared with the Post was his traveling to Alaska after the Second Lebanon War to test fire the more advanced Arrow-3, which shoots down misisles beyond the atmosphere.

Kochav laughed about having been "frozen like an icicle" and noted that it took three days to travel to the location and three day to get back to Israel for only two days of testing.

But he said he took great pride in shooting down the first ballistic missile for Arrow-3 along with a team that included Boaz Levy, who was then a missile defense specialist for Israe; Aerospace Industries IAI).

Levy later became IAI's president and Kochav the head of all of Israel's air defense.

Next, Kochav stated, "Back then, the mission was to defend Tel Aviv, Haifa and Jerusalem. Today, this technology, the fruit of the feverish minds of our best engineers, is being sent to defend Berlin."

Getting more personal in terms of his concrete experiences commanding the Arrow system as part of Israel's air defenses, he said, "As someone who commanded this unit, and later the entire IDF system, I remember the long nights in the control cars, the enormous tension before a test, and the heavy sense of responsibility."

The former IDF air defense chief continued, "There are moments in history when reality surpasses all imagination. Last week, when the components of the "Arrow-3" batteries were delivered to the German government, we witnessed one of these moments."

There can be no doubt that "God's chosen people" were chosen for delivering the Word of God, delivering the Messiah Jesus, showing the gentiles what blessings for obedience and curses for disobedience actually means and blessing them with intelligence to survive anywhere they were scattered.  Look up how many Nobel Prizes the Jews have received.  Understand that they are the heads of all types of industry and innovations.  They have been a blessing to the world, exactly as God said they would.
