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 540) Swords of Iron – “What Color is a Jew?”

Chaim starts out by saying that the IDF is hard at work keeping Israel safe and trying for a quiet weekend, which he says Israel needs in order to recuperate. At the same time, he notes that in Gaza, leaflets were distributed advising the residents to move away from areas that were about to be attacked. There have even been instances when an individual who wasn’t moving out of a building that was about to be struck was called and convinced to leave just before the strike came and destroyed that building. Chaim says this is an example of how the IDF is serious and its warnings should be taken seriously.

(Day 539) Swords of Iron – “Shabbat peace as the storm rages”

The video begins with a montage of combat footage that Chaim has taken before the scene changes to Chaim welcoming in the Sabbath with a group of other soldiers, obviously in battlefield conditions. The Jewish soldiers are all heavily armed and wearing full combat gear, but they are singing, praying and eating the Shabbat meal together just the same.

(Day 538) Swords of Iron – “The Waiting Game”

Chaim starts off by talking about ballistic missile attacks by the Houthis on Jerusalem, and says that as bad as they are, it was much worse before Israel had the Iron Dome and other air defense systems. Chaim also concedes that these systems are very expensive but he mentions the “Iron Beam” laser which will shoot down incoming missiles for a fraction of the cost, and soon everyone will want it.

(Day 537) Swords of Iron – USA Stealth bombers head toward Iran and Yemen

Chaim starts by talking about how the US military is deploying assets to Diego Garcia, a British-owned island in the Indian Ocean which also serves as a major hub for US military operations in the Middle East. Chaim says that all this firepower might soon be unleashed on the Houthis in Yemen, who have no way of defending against it. But the other major target is Iran, and some of their strategic assets are deep underground where even the American mili might have a hard time getting at them. Chaim says that Iran is showing this capability off to the world, clearly hoping to intimidate and discourage the US and Israel rom striking, but that is very unlikely to be successful.
