ARC Mini Blog Day 274 Swords of Iron – Future

The first half of the video is just scenes of devastation in Gaza as Chaim and his comrades drive through the landscape. At one point there is a scene of endless columns of trucks carrying humanitarian aid for the residents of the Strip.

Then, halfway through, Chaim tells his viewers that he’s in the middle of this very bas situation, and he says that everywhere he and his comrades look they find weapons of war meant to harm Israelis. But he also sees the Egyptian border just a few meters away, that could have been the scene of massive economic activity and trade. He also sees a gorgeous beach with houses near the shoreline, and he says that if the people living in Rafah had some other motivation in their hearts than hatred of Jews and Israelis, they could have had a much better life.

He asks his viewers to take a good look at this scene and thank the God who created all of us, for the better future He has for us.

(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.
