Aryeh Deri says October 7 'saved the nation of Israel,' avoiding deadlier attack and exposing Iran
Shas chairman MK Aryeh Deri says in a TV interview that the events of October 7, 2023 “saved the nation of Israel.”
“I see in this what the Prophet Isaiah said in his prophecy — ‘For a small moment have I forsaken thee, but with great compassion will I gather thee,'” the Sephardic ultra-Orthodox lawmaker tells right-wing Channel 14’s “The Patriots,” in remarks quoted by Haaretz.
“For a truly small moment, on October 7, God forsook us. We took an awful blow, that until now we haven’t recovered from. So many casualties, we still have hostages there — but it saved the nation of Israel.

“God performed one more big miracle: that Trump was elected,” he continues. “Without October 7, without Trump, and without Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu — we wouldn’t have been able to do it,” he says, referring to the ongoing campaign against Iran’s nuclear and ballistic missile programs.
