Sometimes, it's not really just luck.....

 

This story is confirmed in Elmer Bendiner's book, The Fall of Fortresses.

 

*Sometimes, it's not really just luck.*

 

 

 

Elmer Bendiner was a navigator in a B-17 during WW II.  He tells this story of a World War II bombing run over Kassel, Germany , and the unexpected result of a direct hit on their gas tanks. "Our B-17, the Tondelayo, was barraged by flak from Nazi antiaircraft guns.  That was not unusual, but on this particular occasion our gas tanks were hit.

 

Later, as I reflected on the miracle of a 20 millimeter shell piercing the fuel tank without touching off an explosion, our pilot, Bohn Fawkes, told me it was not quite that simple.  "On the morning following the raid, Bohn had gone down to ask our crew chief for that shell as a souvenir of unbelievable luck.

 

The crew chief told Bohn that not just one shell but 11 had been found in the gas tanks.  11 unexploded shells where only one was sufficient to blast us out of the sky.  It was as if the sea had been parted for us.  A near-miracle, I thought.

 

Even after 35 years, so awesome an event leaves me shaken, especially after I heard the rest of the story from Bohn.

 

"He was told that the shells had been sent to the armorers to be defused.  The armorers told him that Intelligence had picked them up.  They could not say why at the time, but Bohn eventually sought out the answer.  "Apparently when the armorers opened each of those shells, they found no explosive charge.  They were as clean as a whistle and just as harmless.

 

Empty? Not all of them!  One contained a carefully rolled piece of paper.  On it was a scrawl in Czech.  The Intelligence people scoured our base for a man who could read Czech.  Eventually they found one to decipher the note.  It set us marveling.  Translated, the note read:

*"This is all we can do for you now...

 

Using Jewish slave labor is never a good idea."

 

Awesome Machines ... Thx Ramey H!

No words just music.

Israeli journalist lays it out so well ... Thx Ramey H!

From an Italian journalist...

Why Israel is the World’s Best Nation

 Giulio Meotti

I don’t know another nation on earth which since its founding, less than seventy years ago, had to sacrifice 23,000 soldiers.
I don’t know another nation on earth without recognized borders.
I don’t know another nation on earth whose population lives under a  perpetual emotional strain.
I don’t know another nation on earth threatened to be wiped off the map.
I don’t know another nation on earth so threatened by boycotts all over the world.
I don’t know another nation on earth where winners tend to lose wars.
I don’t know another nation on earth which provides its own enemy with water, electricity, food, weapons, and medical treatment.
I don’t know another nation on earth where guests on official visits utter disrespectful and offensive words.
But I also don’t know another nation on earth which has recorded so many miracles.

Imagine a helpless, naked Jew at the gas ovens facing a Nazi official, who  thinks he will get rid of the “Jewish cancer”, get rid of this unique phenomenon of 2,000 years.

Could that helpless, naked Jew imagine that in 50 years other Jews will be flying F-16’s in the skies over Israel ?
Could that helpless Jew imagine that Israel’s population today would be nine  times that of 1948, the year of the state’s creation?
Could that helpless Jew imagine that Israel is much happier than all the European countries?
Could that helpless Jew imagine that Israel has the highest production of scientific publications per capita in the world?
Could that helpless Jew imagine that Israel has the highest worldwide publication of new books?
Could that helpless Jew imagine that Israel is the only nation which began the XXI century with a net gain in the number of trees?
Could that helpless Jew imagine that Israel has with largest number of chess grandmasters per capita of any city in the world?
Could that helpless Jew imagine that Israel is the nation whose academics  produce more scientific papers per capita than anywhere else in the world?
Could that helpless Jew imagine that Israel is the nation with the highest ratio of university degrees to the population in the world?
Could that helpless Jew imagine that Israel is the country which, in proportion to its population, with the largest number of startup companies in the world?
Could that helpless Jew imagine that Israel is the country with the highest  percentage in the world of home computers per capita?
Could that helpless Jew imagine that Israel is the nation with the largest immigrant-absorbing model on earth?

Unfortunately, you will not find Israel ’s goodness and superiority in the media (also Israeli), because it doesn’t fit in with the stereotype of the colonialist Zionist occupier.
In the world’s consciousness, the word “ Israel ” must be equated with fear.
Israel just came out of another war against terrorists whose value is less than that of animals. Do you know of any animal species sheltering behind its own children?

But the Jewish State, despite its media, its cynical politicians, establishment, once again showed the world it is the best humanity has to offer.

 This hope is impressed in the faces of Israel ’s fallen soldiers, its wounded an injured soldiers. In those faces there is joy de vivre, not sadness or hatred.
Terrorists and their Western appeasers want to destroy Israel because it is a light unto the nations.

 

Pastor Joe Wright - Prayer openmng Kansas Senate - Needed humility by American citizens as well ... Thx Nana and Marge R!

Subject: Guts! More people need to have his courage..He is right on the money with his comments.

This is absolutely great ! ! ! There might be hope yet! A Pastor with GUTS!    Thought you might enjoy this interesting prayer given in Kansas at the opening session of their Senate. It seems  prayer still upsets some people... When Minister Joe Wright was asked to open  the new session of the Kansas Senate, everyone was expecting the usual generalities, but this is    what they heard:  Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask your forgiveness and to seek your direction and guidance. We know Your Word says, 'Woe to those who call evil good,' but that is exactly what we have done.     We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values.  We have exploited the poor and called it  the lottery.     We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare.  We have killed our unborn and called it  choice.    We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable.   We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self-esteem..   We have abused power and called it politics.    We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition.  We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of expression.    We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment.   Search us, Oh, God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from every sin and set us free. Amen!    The response was immediate. A number of legislators walked out during the prayer in protest. In 6 short weeks, Central Christian Church, where Rev. Wright is pastor, logged more than 5,000 phone calls with only 47 of those calls responding negatively.. The church is now receiving international requests for copies of this prayer from India, Africa and Korea .                                                         With the Lord's help, may this prayer sweep over our nation and wholeheartedly become our desire so that we again can be called 'one nation under God.'   If possible, please pass this prayer on to your friends. "If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything."                                                        Think about this: If you forward this prayer to everyone on your e-mail list, in less than 30 days it would be heard by the entire w
