Day 389 Swords of Iron – “Victory On The Horizon?”

Chaim starts the video by praising Israel’s strike on Iran, saying it restored some deterrence, but there’s a question mark about whether the Iranian’s actually got the message. There’s a similar question hanging over the issue of Hezbollah, whether or not they understand how badly they’re losing this war and whether they will be ready to quit any time soon.

Chaim says Israel might have to set up a “de-militarized zone” in southern Lebanon, but that remains to be seen.

Back to Iran, the leadership of the regime is saying time and again that they don’t want a big war with Israel but they keep doing provocative things which Israel will have to respond to.

Chaim also mentions the ongoing operations against Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

But again, he talks about the rapid progress which is being made against Hezbollah and the vast quantities of weapons and ammunition that is being captured and destroyed. He also mentions the “Iron Beam” laser defense system which will soon be deployed to defend Israel against incoming rockets, alongside the Iron Dome.

But all of this comes at a cost, and Chaim mentions the 60 soldiers who have been killed in action in just one month of ground operations in Lebanon, bringing the total in the war to 800.

Chaim asks his viewers to pray for the families of those who have been killed or wounded in action and if they can do more, then do more.

In this context, he quotes Psalms 143:12; In Your mercy cut off my enemies, and destroy all those who afflict my soul; for I am Your servant.

He also quotes Deuteronomy 33:29; Happy are you, O Israel! Who is like you, a people saved by the LORD, The shield of your help And the sword of your majesty! Your enemies shall submit to you, And you shall tread down their high places.”

He concludes by asking his viewers to stay strong and be reassured that the IDF is not going to stop until the threat of rockets on Israel’s home front has been permanently removed.

The last minute of the video is a news clip about the anniversary of the Hezbollah attack on the US Marine barracks in Beirut in 1983.
