Day 294 Swords of Iron – “Hostages bodies Rescued”

Chaim begins the video by talking about the hostages who are still spending their Shabbat’s in Hamas terror tunnels, deprived of their freedoms and most basic human rights. He says that the IDF must continue pressing in and trying to find and rescue these hostages so that they can spend their Shabbat’s at home.

He mentions that in the previous day, the remains of five Israeli hostages were rescued from a tunnel in Khan Yunis. He says that it’s impossible to know if they’re alive or dead until they are located. This time they were located in a tunnel underneath a humanitarian safe zone, and Chaim says these tunnels were prepared for this purpose for many years.

Chaim also says that he’s asking himself why these tunnels weren’t destroyed years ago, including by himself when he was in Gaza during previous military operations there.

Regardless, Chaim says that this is a time to comfort those who mourn, and the entire Jewish and Israeli people are mourning right now. In this context, he quotes Isaiah 40:1; “Comfort, yes, comfort My people!” Says your God.

Chaim asks his viewers to pray for the Israeli people to be comforted and for strong leaders to arise who won’t put up with nonsense. He also thanks Eric Stackleback for his moral clarity, showing a clip of Eric talking about the rise of anti-Semitism, and to give a plug for the Aliyah Return Center and the work we do.

This includes the Lighthouse project to build a headquarters building for the Aliyah Return Center in the city of Tiberius.

(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.
