Good day ATS/ers,
I debated whether to add this post to the weapons forums, but I believe we can have a more lively discussion here in the religious boards.
You may know that Iran's nuclear program has be damaged by what is considered the first weaponized software virus. Essentially, the virus needs no
human interaction or connection to the Internet, is extremely large and complicated, and can jump from the virtual world to the physical world to
actually control machinery. It hunts, it finds, and destroys machines, much like what is happening with Iran's nuclear facilities. No one knows for
sure who created the virus, but the experts agree because of its size and scope it must be a state sponsored virus.
ATS thread about it:

From today's New York Times, it has been uncovered that buried deep in this bug's code is the word, Myrtus. The implications are explained in this
quote from journalists John Markoff and David E. Sanger of NYT:
"It was Mr. Langner [German computer security consultant] who first noted that Myrtus is an allusion to the Hebrew word for Esther. The Book of Esther
tells the story of a Persian plot against the Jews, who attacked their enemies pre-emptively."

My questions are these: "Is there any other references in the Book of Esther, from the Old Testament, that says what Israel should do against its
enemies? Do you know of other examples where Israel has used biblical clues in defending itself?
I'm more curious than anything else because this real world virus is now taking on biblical references.
