(Day 545) Swords of Iron – “Pressure Cooker”

Chaim starts out by telling his viewers that he’s in the outskirts of Rammallah, the capital city of the Palestinian Authority which has civil administration authority over around 5 million Palestinian residents of Judea and Samaria, or as some would call it “the West Bank.”

All of this brings Chaim to a question “Where is Palestine”?

There are a few different options, none of which are economically, politically or culturally coherent or viable. Yes millions of people all over the world talk about this place called “Palestine” as if it’s a self-evident fact, when it clearly isn’t.

Chaim also mentions the rockets and missiles which continue to rain down on the Gailliee, which he says MUST and WILL stop very soon.

He adds that he himself is in Judea and Samaria and this area must also be defended. He mentions that Hungary had a decision to make whether to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu when he came for a state visit recently but instead, Hungary decided to leave the International Criminal Court instead.

It’s also interesting that US President Donald Trump has threatened to withhold aid money from countries who refuse to take in refugees from Gaza and some of these countries are already saying they’ll take some in after all.

Israel is taking many new security measures, including taking full control of about 25% of the Gaza Strip and possibly building a wall on the Jordanian border, along with other security measures. Chaim says that the pressure on Hamas in the Gaza Strip will continue until all the hostages are released or accounted for, one way or the other. The bottom line is that Israel isn’t going to capitulate to terror.

Chaim also mentions the new tariffs President Trump has imposed on all nations around the world, including Israel. He says it’s a new shift if the way the global economy works, one of many shifts taking place all over the place.

In this context, Chaim quotes Isaiah 41:14-16; “Fear not, you worm Jacob, you men of Israel! I will help you,” says the Lord and your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. Behold, I will make you into a new threshing sledge with sharp teeth; You shall thresh the mountains and beat them small, and make the hills like chaff. You shall winnow them, the wind shall carry them away, and the whirlwind shall scatter them; You shall rejoice in the Lord, and glory in the Holy One of Israel.

The video ends with an appeal to support the Aliyah Return Center’s Passover activities for IDF soldiers.
