Day 386 Swords of Iron – “Israel retaliates against Iran”

Chaim starts the video by talking about the earthquake alert that many people in Israel’s Galilee region got on their phones this morning, but it later turned out to not be an earthquake but rather it was the demolition of one of Hezbollah’s largest underground bunker systems. This bunker system was massive, packed with weapons and ammunition meant to be used against Israelis, but Chaim says that is “one more lair of terror” that won’t be used for this purpose any longer.

Chaim also says that Iran has provoked Israel and forced us into attacking them directly, something that didn’t happen before.

Chaim reverts back to the subject of Hezbollah and their attack tunnels for a moment. He says that this is the project he’s currently working on in his role as a combat engineer in the IDF’s elite Ya’alom unit. He’s finding tunnels, exploring them, mapping them and demolishing them. He says he’s more busy than he’s ever been before, because Hezbollah dug so many of these tunnels. They have been preparing for a massive war in which they invaded the Galilee for a long time, but Chaim says “it’s not gonna happen”.

But the main issue is Iran, and Chaim says that although Israel doesn’t want a war with Iran, there’s no option to ignore all the offensive actions Iran is taking against Israel on a daily basis.

So today, Israel struck directly and Chaim asks his viewers to join him in thanking God that all the Israeli planes came back in one piece, but we also need to pray for the aftermath.

Many global powers are watching this situation and hoping it won’t get out of control. Israel is also wondering what Iran’s response will be, but Chaim is confident that Israel is making steady progress and will eventually emerge victorious.

But, he says, this is also a time to be humble and be open to learning the lessons God is trying to teach us through these circumstances. In this context he quotes Deuteronomy 33:29: Happy are you, O Israel! Who is like you, a people saved by the Lord, the shield of your help and the sword of your majesty! Your enemies shall submit to you, and you shall tread down their high places.”
