Lightning also struck it in 2009, 2014, 2015 & 2016. Someone/thing is trying to make a point??? God did say that he finds the obelisque an anathema unto him.
“YOU SHALL make for yourselves no idols nor shall you erect a graven image, pillar, or obelisk, nor shall you place any figured stone in your land to which or on which to bow down; for I am the Lord your God.” (Leviticus 26:1, KJV Amplified Bible)
Deuteronomy 16:22
And you shall not set up a pillar, which the Lord your God hates.
