Day 371 Swords of Iron – “Hezbollahs madness”

 

Chaim starts the video by saying that he is back in the Galilee after a brief visit to Lebanon, where Hezbollah is continuing to fire rockets into Israel, adding to the over 9,000 they’ve already fired since October 8th, 2023, when they decided to join the war against Israel that Hamas started with their massacre the day before.

Chaim says that it’s “just not right” for Hezbollah to be doing this and so the IDF needs to go in to sort them out.

Chaim says that Hezbollah has packed southern Lebanon full of tunnels and packed those tunnels full of weapons to attack Israelis. Chaim says the IDF is capturing enormous quantities of these weapons and otherwise making progress in both Gaza and Lebanon.

He also mentions Khalem Mashall, the senior international spokesman for Hamas, who gave an interview recently with Al Arabiya in which he made a slip and said that Iran had assassinated Ismail Haniyeh, not Israel. So this is a sign of the confusion in the enemy camp.

Chaim says this is not the time to back down, cease-fire or otherwise capitulate. In this context, Chaim mentions the ongoing discussions about how to respond to Iran’s ballistic missile attack last week. There are discussions going on between Israeli and American leaders and it’s unclear what the outcome will be.

Chaim concludes by thanking his viewers for continuing to pray for him as it is a different landscape in the north than it was in Gaza. But he also says that he knows a lot of people who have been praying for Israel and for the Aliyah Return Center and him personally are in Florida, and they just got clobbered by back-to-back hurricanes. So he says that here in Israel, we’re praying for Florida and standing with them just as they have stood with us.

(Day 864) Swords of Iron – “Red Lines”

It’s unbelievable—almost incomprehensible. Ahead of Phase Two of President Donald Trump’s Gaza plan to clear the rubble and rebuild, Hamas was required to disarm and leave. Instead, they’re now saying they want to retain political control of Gaza—perhaps not as a military force, but as a governing entity. That is unacceptable. Israel has made it unequivocally clear: there will be no Hamas involvement in Gaza’s administration under any circumstances. Period.

(Day 863) Swords of Iron – “Internal-External pressures”

We are definitely in the Middle East; intense dust storms covered the region in recent days—it’s just wild. But what’s even more concerning is that Hamas continues to blatantly violate the ceasefire. The yellow line means nothing to them, nor does northern Gaza. Armed terrorists emerged from underground infrastructure, attempting to pose an imminent threat to our troops. Thankfully, our guys were able to neutralize them and eliminate the threat. We can’t move forward with any plans for rebuilding—like gas development—until they disarm and withdraw.

(Day 862) Swords of Iron – “Rammifications”

It’s good to be out of uniform for the weekend.
But when I hear that Ivy League students at places like Columbia are chanting slogans like “there is only one solution – intifada revolution” or calling terror tunnels “anti-colonial resistance,” I have to ask – what are we teaching the next generation? We must safeguard the future by ensuring people are educated with truth, not deception.

(Day 861) Swords of Iron – “Getting to the bottom of this”

Shabbat shalom my friends!
As we carry out intense missions throughout Gaza, please pray for us—the IDF, the soldiers of Israel, and the victory of good over evil, light over darkness. Things are shifting globally and here in Gaza, maybe not as quickly or neatly as we’d like, but there is always hope and a light at the end of the (Hamas) tunnel (pun intended).
