Day 311 Swords of Iron – “Another (Ninth of AV) Tragedy?”

 

Chaim starts the video by announcing that the Ninth of Av has begun and he says it’s “a great time to pray for victory.:

Chaim explains though, that media outlets around the world are reporting the assessment that Iran and its proxies, especially Lebanese Hezbollah and the Houthi rebels in Yemen, will attack Israel over the next 24 hours. The Ninth of Av is historically a day when calamitous events happen to the Jewish people, including the destruction of both the First and Second Temples and many other things.

Amidst all the tensions, the Pentagon has deployed a missile submarine to the region along with other assets, including the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier battle group has been ordered to increase the speed at which it is making its way here.

Chaim says that the IDF forces deployed in the field are having a difficult time not only with the physical challenges but also the emotional and psychological challenges. They’re trying to maintain vigilance and readiness for battle even as they abstain from food and many other creature comforts.

They try to draw strength from the prophets and the Scriptures, even as they fast and lament the tragedies of the past and hope there won’t be another one to add to the list on this Tisha B’Av.

The scene switches to a Palestinian man in Gaza telling the camera that he wants the Arab and Islamic world to come rescue him from Hamas before they rescue them from Israel. He blames Hamas for all the hardships he and his family are going through and asks for someone to come help them.

The scene shifts again to show part of a recent video giving respect to the IDF for being a citizen’s army that shows up every day and protects the Land and People of Israel.

(Day 596) Swords of Iron – “Trudging on as Shavuot (Pentecost) approaches”

Chaim starts by saying that he’s preparing to attend the funeral of Yaron Lischinsky, 30, and Sarah Lynn Milgrim, 26, two young Israelis diplomats who were murdered in Washington DC by a Pro-Palestinian terrorist last week. Israeli diplomatic missions around the world have increased their security and they are also flying their flags at half mast this week, even as some American officials including US Representative Ilan Omar of Minnesota coldly declined to comment on the attack.

(Day 595) Swords of Iron – “Devastated”

Chaim starts by talking about how difficult Israel’s situation remains, since there are ballistic missiles being fired at Israel by the Houthis in Yemen and ongoing fighting in Gaza and elsewhere.

(Day 594) Swords of Iron – “Brainwash”

Chaim starts out by saying how devastated he is at the news that Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim, two staff members at the Israeli Embassy in Washington DC, were murdered by a pro-Palestinian terrorist in Washington DC on Thursday. Yaron is the son of a well-known tour guide here in Israel, and his family is part of Israel’s Believer community.

(Day 593) Swords of Iron – “Hellbent on Israel’s Destruction”

Chaim starts out by saying that big things are in the offing as China has told all its citizens in Israel to leave the country immediately, as nuclear talks between the US and Iran appear to be breaking down. Israel is determined not to allow Iran to get nuclear weapons and Iran shows no signs of backing down. There is a real chance that full-scale war between Iran and Israel is about to break out.
