God’s “favor” doesn’t translate to blank-check support for political or military endeavors. Free will, human agency, and complex international dynamics (like economics, alliances, and strategy) govern conflicts, not divine cash flows. If we look at history, Israel’s survival and military successes (e.g., 1967 Six-Day War) often relied on strategic planning, international support (like U.S. aid), and resilience, not miracles.
