Day 398 Swords of Iron – “Ripples in around the world”

Chaim starts by saying this is a time when everyone needs to ask themselves where they stand. He says that the election of Donald Trump to the US Presidency is an example for all of us to look to to find the answer to that question.

He mentions the tremendous success the IDF is having in pushing back Hezbollah and destroying all their terrorist infrastructure in southern Lebanon, althouth there have been setbacks and casualties and Chaim mentions the names of some of those who have been killed in action. He says that he thinks Trump’s election victory will usher in a season of victory for all freedom loving people.

In this context he mentions one of Trump’s top advisors who gives him advice on Iran, saying that Iran is behind all the attacks on Israel from Hamas and Hezbollah and elsewhere and this adviser will certainly make that clear to President-elect Trump.

Chaim also gives some other updates about what’s going on in the war, including the capture of several high-ranking Nukba Force terrorists, the rocket that hit near Ben-Gurion Airport, and the threat of further attacks from Iran. But he says he’s not afraid because he puts his trust in the God of Israel. In this context, he quotes Hosea 11:10; They shall walk after the Lord. He will roar like a lion. When He roars, then His sons shall come trembling from the west;

He mentions that America is to the West of Israel as is Canada and France and the UK, where there are large Jewish communities. He says that the Aliyah Return Center wants to help all of these people from all these different places. He says that he hopes they’ll come to Israel, not because of fear, but because of a hopeful vision for the future.

The video concludes with a message of thanks from an IDF unit which got some equipment donated to them by the supporters of the Aliyah Return Center.

(Day 540) Swords of Iron – “What Color is a Jew?”

Chaim starts out by saying that the IDF is hard at work keeping Israel safe and trying for a quiet weekend, which he says Israel needs in order to recuperate. At the same time, he notes that in Gaza, leaflets were distributed advising the residents to move away from areas that were about to be attacked. There have even been instances when an individual who wasn’t moving out of a building that was about to be struck was called and convinced to leave just before the strike came and destroyed that building. Chaim says this is an example of how the IDF is serious and its warnings should be taken seriously.

(Day 539) Swords of Iron – “Shabbat peace as the storm rages”

The video begins with a montage of combat footage that Chaim has taken before the scene changes to Chaim welcoming in the Sabbath with a group of other soldiers, obviously in battlefield conditions. The Jewish soldiers are all heavily armed and wearing full combat gear, but they are singing, praying and eating the Shabbat meal together just the same.

(Day 538) Swords of Iron – “The Waiting Game”

Chaim starts off by talking about ballistic missile attacks by the Houthis on Jerusalem, and says that as bad as they are, it was much worse before Israel had the Iron Dome and other air defense systems. Chaim also concedes that these systems are very expensive but he mentions the “Iron Beam” laser which will shoot down incoming missiles for a fraction of the cost, and soon everyone will want it.

(Day 537) Swords of Iron – USA Stealth bombers head toward Iran and Yemen

Chaim starts by talking about how the US military is deploying assets to Diego Garcia, a British-owned island in the Indian Ocean which also serves as a major hub for US military operations in the Middle East. Chaim says that all this firepower might soon be unleashed on the Houthis in Yemen, who have no way of defending against it. But the other major target is Iran, and some of their strategic assets are deep underground where even the American mili might have a hard time getting at them. Chaim says that Iran is showing this capability off to the world, clearly hoping to intimidate and discourage the US and Israel rom striking, but that is very unlikely to be successful.
