Day 416 Swords of Iron – “Running to Victory”

Chaim starts by saying Israel is a beautiful country and it’s sad to see hundreds of rockets being fired into it. But the IDF is striking back, hitting the Dahyiah neighborhood of southern Beruit. He says Israel is going to have to see this through and he thanks his viewers for their support in that effort.

In this context, he quotes Isaiah 41:10-12; Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand. “Behold, all those who were incensed against you shall be ashamed and disgraced; They shall be as nothing, and those who strive with you shall perish. You shall seek them and not find them those who contended with you. Those who war against you shall be as nothing, as a nonexistent thing.

Chaim says he’s been deployed in both southern Lebanon and Gaza, doing specialized missions mostly involving tunnel detection and demolition, and he’s very encouraged by all the assistance, prayers and other support he’s gotten from all over the world.

He also highlights the support that’s come in for the Aliyah Return Center’s Emergency Aid Initiative which has helped so many people, including Jews, Arabs, and others, who are under pressure from the war and its fallout. He concludes by thanking his viewers once again for the provision of money that allowed the ARC to buy thermal drones which allow IDF soldiers to do their jobs more effectively and safely.

(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.
