Not necessarily. Archeologists continue to uncover relics and whole ancient communities that are proof of things the Bible tells us. And nearly 400 fulfilled prophesies over thousands of years regarding Jesus alone is an impossible act to follow, let alone deny. Particularly when many of them have odds so miniscule no sentient being would bet against them. Yet, many still do.
Archeologists do not confirm the existence of a God or gods. There is no reason to doubt that the places, towns, cities mentioned in the bible existed. It's the supernatural element that is questionable.
I'm going to say the survival of the Jewish people as a separate entity and the miraculous reestablishment of the nation of Israel is proof enough for me. Their victory in the 1948 war should be enough for anyone to believe in divine intervention. Any other group would have been absorbed into the dominant population and disappeared.


Hitler had his own version of "divine intervention"

That's a bold assertion. Point out where you think I lied.

Well?
