Day 254 Swords of Iron – “Reim”

Chaim begins by telling his viewers that he is at Kibbutz Reim, which was one of the communities attacked by Hamas terrorists on October 7th, 2023. He is walking through the kibbutz to bear witness to the horrors that occurred there, and he asks his viewers to continue praying for those who were kidnapped on that day and remain in captivity in Gaza. He also asks for continued prayers for the soldiers who are fighting in Gaza to destroy the threat from Hamas and retrieve the hostages who remain in captivity.

Chaim is walking through a field that contains markers for hundreds of people who were murdered on that site. Chaim says he was there shortly after October 7th and he saw fresh evidence of the atrocities there.

He reminds his viewers that Gaza is just five kilometers from this field, and on October 7th, the elite of the society from that side of the border including Hamas terrorists but also including many civilians, came through the border fence to carry out their program of slaughter and destruction.

Chaim points to the memorials, including recently planted trees, which have been placed in this area to commemorate those who were murdered, raped and destroyed on that awful day. He reminds his viewers that many of these people who were murdered were activists in the cause of peace and co-existence with the Palestinians. These people had organized events to bring the two populations together for friendly events like soccer tournaments and had also given them jobs in their homes and communities.

Chaim says he’s also a “peace activist” but he believes that the only way to have lasting peace is when God reigns in the hearts of all men, and until that day comes, the men and women of the free world need to stand strong against terrorism.

(Day 563) Swords of Iron – “Drive Terror Out”

Chaim starts by saying he remembers the day he got the call to come to his IDF reserve unit because the war was starting and he was needed. He talks about others he knows who did the same, even though many of them were very busy and had a lot going on, they all dropped what they were doing and ran to join their units. They all thought it would be a short war like so many others before it, but this war has lasted over a year and a half and there’s no end in sight.

(Day 562) Swords of Iron – “Fell in the line of duty”

Chaim starts by saying it’s always tragic when the IDF suffers casualties, and he honors Warrant Officer G’haleb Sliman Alnasasra, 35, of Rahat, who was killed in action over the weekend. Several other soldiers were wounded in the attack, which occurred in an area that was believed to have been cleared of hostile actors, but Hamas had a tunnel that had not been demolished yet and some Hamas guys popped up out of that tunnel and fired an RPG at an IDF vehicle and then later as a rescue vehicle was headed towards the scene Hamas detonated an IED and inflicted more casualties.

(Day 561) Swords of Iron – “Name a Hero of yours”

Chaim starts the video by asking his viewers to leave a comment talking about who their heroes are. He then tells the story of one of his personal heroes, Fredreich Bonhoofer, who was a pastor in Germany who publicly stood against the Nazi regime and was also involved in the plot to assassinate Adolf Hitler in July 1944. His great legacy is that although he was a pacifist, he said that to not take action in the face of evil, and to not speak out in the face of evil, was to support evil and to become evil.
