Day 384 Swords of Iron – “A Time of Renewal” 

Chaim begins the video by asking his viewers if they know what day it is. Then he tells them that it’s “Simchat Torah” the day after the end of the Feast of Tabernacles when Jewish synagogues all over the world roll the torah scroll back to the beginning of Genesis so they can begin to go through the Torah again every Shabbat.

He says that even as they’re celebrating the fact that they’ve kept the Torah safe for centuries, the Jewish people are also fighting for their lives in a battle against evil terrorists.

He says the battle against Hezbollah is going much better than it was expected to go, with the number of rockets Hezbollah is firing into Israel a tiny fraction of what it was feared they would be able to do and many of their fighters taken off the battlefield while much of their much-feared arsenal is already gone.

Chaim says they’re still dangerous but they are being steadily degraded and pushed back.

He asks his viewers to “remember the Word of God” in the midst of all this, and he quotes Micah 7:8; Do not rejoice over me, my enemy; when I fall, I will arise; when I sit in darkness, the Lord will be a light to me.

He also mentions the former UN peacekeeper who told the media that UNIFIL was militantly complacent and did not even attempt to enforce UN Security Council Resolution 1701, possibly because they were paid off by Hezbollah to look the other way and not enforce it.

But, he says, even amidst this and many other things that the world is looking at, often in fear and trepidation about what the future is likely to hold, Chaim says that something new is coming, and he asks his viewers to join him in rejoicing for the new things the Lord is doing and about to do.

(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.
