(Day 544) Swords of Iron – “Ultimate Showdown Coming”

Chaim starts out by noting that he’s recording the video at a lookout point named in honor of Yehuda Dror, an IDF soldier who was killed in action in this war. However, there are more sacrifices coming because the operation in Gaza is being expanded. He says that large areas of the Gaza Strip have already been evacuated of their residents and come under the administrative jurisdiction of the IDF.

Hamas itself is admitting that they are feeling the pressure from their own people, who Israel has told to turn on Hamas, help find the hostages and otherwise stop allowing Hamas to use them as human shields. Chaim says that Hamas still has some combat power and tricks up their sleeves but the IDF is nonetheless committed to finishing the job.

Chaim also talks about the situation in the US and other Western countries, where authorities are cracking down on anti-Israel protests but at the same time there is a sharp increase in anti-Semitic attacks and attacks even on supporters of Israel, Jewish and otherwise.

Chaim also mentions the continuing battle against Hezbollah and other Iranian-backed terror groups all over the region. But he also circles back to the protests against Hamas in the Gaza Strip, which he says show promise of becoming a force for positive change.

He also mentions the increasing US military presence in the region, and the IDF’s own preperations for whatever might be coming next. In this context, he quotes Psalms 108:13; Through God we will do valiantly, for it is He who shall tread down our enemies.

He concludes by asking his viewers to pray for the IDF to have victory over their enemies.

The video ends with an appeal for viewers to support an upcoming Passover event at the Aliyah Return Center.
