 (Day 485) Swords of Iron – “Nukes”

Chaim starts by asking a rhetorical question about what will happen next in Gaza and in general with Israel’s security needs.

He mentions that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is heading to Washington DC to meet with US President Donald Trump, who just signed an executive order to develop a missile defense system to protect the United States homeland. He also wants Arab League countries to take in Palestinian refugees, but these states have all said no to that idea for now.

Chaim also mentions that UNRWA is on the ropes in many ways and he talks about the big worry that everyone has about Iran. Iran’s regime is threatening an all-out war if their nuclear facilities are attacked, but if those facilities are not attacked, a war might happen anyway and Iran would have nuclear weapons.

The IRGC is making threats, showing off its strategic facilities, trying to deter an attack.

Chaim says it’s a very complicated and fraught situation, but he urges his viewers not to be afraid. In this context, he quotes Isaiah 41:10-11; So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. “All who rage against you will surely be ashamed and disgraced;
those who oppose you will be as nothing and perish.

Next Chaim goes through some of the nuclear facilities that Iran is operating, while they ignore all warnings to step back from the brink of deploying nuclear weapons.

But, again, Chaim turns to the Word of God, quoting Deuteronomy 33:29; Blessed are you, Israel! Who is like you, a people saved by the Lord? He is your shield and helper and your glorious sword. Your enemies will cower before you, and you will tread on their heights.”

(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.
