Are You Making Aliyah?

ARC Israel Updates

(Day 207) Swords of Iron- History Repeating?”

Chaim starts the video by saying that Passover has ended but anti-Semitism and baseless hatred have not. The protests against Israel at university campuses in the US have gotten very ugly and it’s leading to a dangerous place. Large numbers of Jews in the US are already looking into the possibility of making Aliyah and that trend is likely to continue.

Chaim mentions the passage from teh Passover Hagaddah where we repeat that “in every generation they rose up to destroy us but the Holy One, blessed be He, saves us from their hand”.

He encourages his viewers to be in communication with their elected officials and tell them that we must not allow the history of Nazi Germany to repeat itself in the United States. We must not allow the lies and slander to go unchallenged.

He says that the Jewish people have one homeland and that’s Israel, and that the Aliyah Return Center is here to help Jewish people come home to their homeland. He thanks his viewers for standing with the ARC and with Israel in prayer and in practical support.

He says that he always takes visiting groups to the Friends of Zion museum where they can learn about heros of the faith who stood for truth and righteousness and helped build the foundations of the modern State of Israel.

He says that these people give us all an example to follow and, urging his viewers to remember these words, he quotes Psalms 144:1-2, Blessed be the Lord my Rock, Who trains my hands for war, and my fingers for battle. My lovingkindness and my fortress,my high tower and my deliverer, my shield and the One in whom I take refuge, Who subdues [a]my people under me.

He concludes with saying the blessing for day 7 of the Omer count.

(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.
