Is Israel still under God's protection today?

Answer 1

1) In the Tanakh (Hebrew Bible), God says many times that his covenant with the Israelites is eternal.

2) Let's take a look at recent events.

• In 1948, seven Arab armies attacked the nascent Israel, which was ill-prepared. Not only did Israel survive, it had a victory.
• Ditto in 1973.
• In 1967, Israel had a victory that stunned the world, before the Arabs had a chance to attack.
• In 1991, Iraq rained Scud missiles on Israel. Despite their hitting many homes, there were almost no casualties. Compare that to the Scuds which Iraq and Iran shot at each other (1980-88), many of which exacted a heavy toll.
• In 2006, Hizbollah terrorists rained many thousands of rockets on Israeli cities. There was at the time no Iron Dome defense, yet only 44 civilians were killed.
• In 2014, Hamas rained down thousands of rockets, deliberately targeting Israeli cities. Only five Israeli civilians were killed.

3) The very existence of modern Israel is a historical miracle, even greater in view of its prospering despite the boycott and the hatred of its neighbors and much of the world community.

Two parenthetical points need to be addressed. One is that some of the above Divine protection occurred through seemingly natural means such as the 2014 Iron Dome missile defense. People who are able to discern the hand of God will not be confused by this, but those who willfully blind themselves will of course see nothing.
The other point is that, yes, many painful things have happened, such as the many Israelis that have been killed in war and in terror attacks. This too is predicted in the Tanakh and is beyond the scope of the present Question; but it does not vitiate the miracles that have happened.
