Dear Prime Minister Netanyahu, MK's, Rabbanim and Dear Friends and my Fellow Lovers of Eretz Yisroel: 

The Tefillin Line of Attack - Lightpoints - Parshas Veeschanan

Tefillin is synonymous with military victory for Israel.  Please watch Lubavitcher Rebbe - The Six-Day War and Tefillin - May 28 1967  A brief history of the Six-Day War and the Rebbe's call for all Jewish men, particularly soldiers in the IDF, to don tefillin as a special merit for added security. http://www.chabad.org/multimedia/media_cdo/aid/397220/jewish/The-Six-Day-War-and-Tefillin.htm (see 2:48 minutes into the video of address of Lubavitcher Rebbe that Lag BaOmer)

 In Tefillin there are four portions  The order of these passages as they occur in the Torah is: 1] "Kadesh Li" (Exodus. 13:1-10), 2] "v'Hayah Ki Yevi'acha" (Exodus. 13:11-16), 3] "Shema" (Deut. 6:4-9), and 4] "v'Hayah Im Shamo'a" (Deut. 11:13-21). http://ohr.edu/3943 Other links about The Mitzvah of Tefillin is http://tefilinhebron.com/eng/about-teffilin.asp?fatherID=5&pageID=7 and The Torah passages (parshiot) in Tefillin http://ott.co.il/tefillin/the-torah-passages-parshiot/

In Exodus :9 it says "And it shall be to you as a sign upon your hand and as a remembrance between your eyes, in order that the law of the Lord shall be in your mouth, for with a mighty hand the Lord took you out of Egypt."  In Exodus:16 it repeats basically the same concept "And it shall be for a sign upon your hand and for ornaments between your eyes, for with a mighty hand did the Lord take us out of Egypt." (underline is my emphasis. Robin)

The Exodus from Egypt is a major theme in the passages in Tefillin.  The passages speak about the redemption of the first born, not eating leavened bread,  Mezuzah, the door post, all connected with the story of the Exodus.  The Exodus was a monumental moment in the world and especially in the formation of a Jewish Nation.  

Rabbi Dov Linzer of YCT writes: http://rabbidovlinzer.blogspot.com/2013_01_13_archive.html 

"The experience of Yitziat Mitzrayim, of the Exodus, was one of Hitgalut haShekinah, of Divine Revelation, of a direct encounter with the Divine. "At midnight, I will go out into the midst of Egypt." (Ex. 11:4) "And I will pass through the land of Egypt on that night" (Ex. 12:12) - "I, and not a messenger; I, and not an angel" (Pesach Hagaddah). This revelation of the Divine reached a new height at the Splitting of the Sea - "This is my God whom I will adorn" (Ex. 15:2) - "A maidservant at the Splitting of the Sea saw what even Yechezkel never saw in his prophecy of the Divine Chariot - 'This is my God' - as if one could point to God with her finger." (Mekhilta). It was this process of Divine revelation that reached its apogee at the Revelation of Sinai, when God reveled God's self to the entire people, in the one never- to-be-repeated moment in history."

The Exodus from Egypt is very connected with the Final Redemption, the Messianic time as it says

"As in the days of your exodus from Egypt, I will show [the people] wonders."[Micha 7:15]   http://www.sichosinenglish.org/books/anticipating-redemption-2/03.htm 

In the Tefillin Unification Prayer it says: (Artscroll Ashkenaz Weekday English Interlinear Siddur Shacharis page 6 and 7,  Putting on Tefillin Section)

"The Exodus, and by extension the Tefillin, reminds the Jew and the world that G-d is All powerful. The Tefillin is worn on the heart and the head.  as it says "and it shall be to you as a sign upon your hand and as a remembrance between your eyes". We shall recall the miracles and wonders that He did for us when He took us out from Egypt and the idea that He has the strength and domination over the upper realms and the lower realms to do with them as He wishes. He commanded us to put the tefillin up the arm as a reminder of the outstretched arm of the Exodus and it because it is opposite the heart, subjugating thereby the passions and thoughts of our heart to His service - blessed is His Name;and upon the head opposite the brain, so that the soul that is in my brain together with the rest of my senses and faculties, all may be subjugated to His service - blessed be His Name.  

Open Miracles In Operation Protective Edge.  http://shemittahrediscovered.blogspot.com/2014/07/operation-protective-edge-miracles.html Israel witnessed over 900 rockets with almost no casualties.  Each time a rocket falls and there is no casualty is a miracle.  These miracles will hopefully be documented and not seen as happenstance.  Let us recognize the open miracles happening on a daily basis!  We can not attribute our success so far to our own might and power.  It must be that G-d in Heaven is protecting us as he did in the Six Day War, in Gush Katif (documented in their Haggadah), and in the Gulf War and countless other times.  If we only acknowledge Hashem's wonderous miracles in the present and link it to the past by strengthening our observance of Mitzvoth especially Tefillin, surely we will merit a great salvation!  

Today is Shiva Asar BeTamuz. Thank G-d  Kerry just postponed his trip to the Middle East. http://www.cnn.com/2014/07/14/world/meast/kerry-mideast-diplomacy/  Let us not forget the last time he visited on Asara Beteves http://shemittahrediscovered.blogspot.com/2013/12/on-snowstorm-kerry-watch-rav-richter.html that brought with it a snowstorm that put Jerusalem in a Siege. When Netanyahu met with Kerry in Washington DC it put Washington DC into a deep freeze.  Now is the three weeks.  Now is the time to recall the tragedies and turn them into days of Praise and Thanksgiving!
