ARC Israel Updates

Day 136

Chaim starts by mentioning that there is a common perception that most ordinary Palestinians don’t support Hamas.
Chaim thinks this is an example of “projection” where people in Western countries assign their own values, priorities, etc. to people from other cultures.

Chaim points out that these “regular people” voted for Hamas in the last elections held in the Gaza Strip and in almost every house he enters in Gaza he finds rifles, RPGs, and other weapons meant to be used by Hamas to attack Israelis.
Beyond that, polls have been conducted in Gaza and the West Bank showing that a solid majority of Palestinians support the October 7th 2023 Hamas massacre.

Chaim says that if the “regular people” in Gaza and the West Bank really did want what Westerners want, peace would have been established a long time ago.
But what these “regular people” want most is to eliminate Israel, and so Chaim asks his viewers to pray that they will have a changed heart.

He even asks for prayers that this change of heart would extend to other peoples in the Arab world so that they would have love instead of hate for even the Jewish people.

(Day 734) Swords of Iron – The hostages are coming home!

Chaim starts by saying that he’s in Jerusalem (wearing civilian clothes) and he is so excited because the deal to release the remaining Israeli hostages held in Gaza has been signed and finalized. The hostages will be able to celebrate at least the last day or maybe two days of Succot, the Feast of Tabernacles.

(Day 731) Swords of Iron – “Where are the hostages?”

Chaim starts by talking about how he’s been mobilized in this war for two years, which is 10% of his adult life, and he’s seen and participated in many of the war’s most well-known campaigns. However, now is a special time because it is the Feast of Tabernacles and it’s time for the people of Israel to build temporary, flimsy structures to remind ourselves of the Exodus from Egypt when God watched over us and protected and provided for us despite the desperately insecure situation we were in.
