Day 415 Swords of Iron – “miracles are not a thing of the past”
Chaim starts by declaring that the times are tough, but Israel wants to win this war in Lebanon, Gaza and the wider region. To help out, US Central Command commander General Michael E. Kurilla. He’s meeting this week with IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi to try and find a way to stop the showers of rockets that are hitting Galilee and all over Israel. Chaim says that these terrorists need to figure out that their time is almost up.
But Chaim also mentions the murder of Rabbi Zvi Kogan, a Chabad emissary in the UAE who appears to have been the target of an Iranian assassination plot. The Iranians call their plan “Operation Ensuring Truth 3” but Chaim says all they’re doing is ensuring that the truth that they are evil is seen by everyone.
There was also the murder of an Israeli-American man in Memphis, Tennessee in recent days. It’s unclear what the circumstances of that murder were, but it might have been part of an Iranian plot as well.
But Chaim says that these workers of iniquity need to be careful because, despite the arrest warrants issued by the International Criminal Court for Israeli officials, true justice WILL be done. Chaim says that it is obvious and apparent to anyone with any common sense that countries have the right and responsibility to respond to attacks on their citizens. Chaim briefly reviews the attack that Hamas launched on Israel on October 7th, 2023, which started this war, and he says that this medieval barbarism WILL be beaten back by the IDF very soon.
Chaim also says that the stories of the heroes who fought this war include many stories of miracles, and these stories will become part of Israel’s national narrative.
He concludes by talking about the thermal drones that the Aliyah Return Center has been able to provide to IDF troops in the field because of the generosity of his viewers and then gives a short explanation of why the attempts by the International Criminal Court to issue warrants for the arrest of Israeli leaders is so absurd. He says that the ICC is ignoring real war criminals while pursuing Israeli officials out of obvious political motives.
In this context, Chaim quotes Psalms 98:9; For He is coming to judge the earth. With righteousness He shall judge the world, and the peoples with equity.
