Day 401 Swords of Iron – “Non Jewish heroes everywhere”

Chaim starts the video by pointing out that Hamas has once again rejected a proposal for a ceasefire which they need more than Israel does. Qatar has finally gotten so fed up with them that they are expelling the Hamas leadership from the luxury hotels they live in in Doha. The leaders are trying to tell their followers it’s not that bad, that this rift with the Qatari government will blow over in a little while, but Chaim is pretty sure that’s not the case.

Chaim also mentions the Oketz K-9 unit of the IDF which is often used to search for IEDs and explosives. He says that there was recently an incident where a soldier was severely wounded by an IED and his dog stayed with him the whole time he was in the hospital recovering.

He also mentions an Arab Israeli man who was in Amsterdam during the pogrom last Thursday and helped rescue many Jewish Israelis by warning them that attackers were near, misdirecting some of those attackers by speaking to them in Arabic, etc. Chaim compares him to Corrie Ten Boom, who hid Dutch Jews from the Nazis during the Holocaust.

Chaim concludes by talking about how sad it is that so many Arabs and Moslems are under this weight of deceit and hatred which causes them to be against Israel. It’s brought a terrible curse on their lives, and Chaim says he believes that’s about to change.

(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.
