Day 301) Swords of Iron – “Tipping Point- Turning Point”

Chaim begins with a lament that Israel is still at war after 301 days, which few would have ever expected. But he says the worst might be yet to come as Israel is bracing for a large strike by Iran and its proxies in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq and Yemen. This could include hundreds of rockets, UAV’s, missiles and other weapons all fired at once from all directions.

This would be in response to Israel’s assassination of senior Hezbollah leader Fuad Shukur and Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh over recent days. Chaim admits that Israel’s air defense systems can’t stop all the incoming weapons, and the mayor of Haifa is expecting 4,000 weapons to come at Israel every single day for several days. Obviously, Israel can’t stop all of them, and so there will be great carnage and destruction. It could start at any moment.

Chaim rhetorically asks “what do we do” and he answers his own question by inviting his viewers to join him in praying into the situation, with a special fast and prayer scheduled to start on Sunday evening and running through Monday, which is Tisha B’Av, the day on the Hebrew calendar which has historically been a day when disasters befall the Jewish People.

Israel is bracing for missiles to target the Knesset building in Jerusalem as well as the Prime Minister’s residence, strategic targets like IDF military headquarters in Tel Aviv, the natural gas platforms in the Meditteranean Sea, the ports of Haifa and Ashdod, and IDF military bases.

Chaim mentions a recent phone call between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Joe Biden, during which the possible evacuation of US citizens from the region was discussed.

Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Hezbollah, said that this is no longer a war between Israel and Hezbollah but it is a war between Israel and all Moslems everywhere. Some leaders of Moslem countries agreed, including Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan who threatened to invade Israel, while Jordan and Egypt appeared to disagree, saying they would intercept any weapons flying through their air space towards Israel.

But he concludes by saying that Israel and the IDF are persevering in the face of all this hatred and all these threats, the determination to free Israeli hostages and otherwise defend our country remains strong and we are determined to get the victory in this war.

(Day 689) Swords of Iron – “Will They Ever Learn?”

Chaim starts by saying that the Houthis in Yemen have been hit hard by the IDF in response to all the ballistic missiles and drones they keep firing at the one democracy in the Middle East, but they just don’t seem to be getting the message that it’s time to stop.

(Day 688) Swords of Iron – “No Greater Love”

Chaim starts out by saying that it’s very painful to see IDF soldiers killed in action. He’s filming from the site of a small memorial that have been built to these soldiers, to add the name of Lt. Ori Gerlic, 20, a platoon commander in the Kfir Brigade who was killed by an accidental premature explosion of a charge that had been set to demolish a Hamas position in Khan Yunis over the weekend.

(Day 687) Swords of Iron –  “Secret Weapon”

Chaim starts out by saying he wants to show his viewers a “secret weapon” that IDF soldiers carry into battle with them, and it’s cards with the Psalms and other Bible verses written on them. These cards, which soldiers carry so they can read the verses and proclaim them over themselves and their comrades and their country, give them spiritual strength when other forms of strength fail them.

(Day 686) Swords of Iron – “Gearing Up For Triumph”

Chaim starts by describing how many drones and rockets Hamas is firing at the humanitarian aid convoys as they’re on their way into the Gaza Strip, and he says that this is going on right out in the open and the international media is giving Hamas a pass on it once again. Meanwhile, there are some Palestinians who are standing up to Hamas, including the Abu Shabab militia, which don’t like Israel much but really hates Hamas and so they’re fighting Hamas for control of the streets in Gaza. Chaim says they might be helpful in the takeover of Gaza City.
