ARC Israel Updates

Day 174

Chaim starts the video by saying that he’s at home in the Galilee on a break from the IDF for some “R&R” but that doesn’t mean “rest and relaxation” it means “return and restoration.”

That’s what the Aliyah Return Center is all about, and Chaim has been hard at work during his break from the war, making sure the ARC has what it needs to keep doing what it does.

He then quotes Winston Churchill when he said “The British Government Had a Choice Between War and Shame, It Chose Shame, So It Shall Have It, and Also War.”

He asks his viewers to answer a question in the comments section about whether the Biden Administration in the US is trying to force Israel to agree to a ceasefire which will leave Hamas in power in Gaza and allow it to regroup, reorganize and plan future massacres of Israelis.

He then switches to commenting on the Northern arena, where a choice between war and shame appears to be offering itself to Israel.

But then he switches back to talking about President Biden and the incredibly difficult position he’s in, being under severe pressure from the Progressive wing of the Democratic Party to put pressure on Israel to capitulate to Hamas. He was initially very supportive of Israel’s war against Hamas, but as the months have dragged on and a quick victory hasn’t materialized, he’s  having trouble maintaining that support publicly.

Chaim wonders if telling the truth about what’s at stake might have been a smart political move, as it might have gained him some support from Evangelical voters who are not enthusiastic about voting for Donald Trump.

Chaim says that regardless of the political dynamics, we all need to be in prayer for the leaders of the US, Israel and whatever other countries are involved in what’s going on. We also need to be in prayer for ourselves, that we’ll continue to stand up for the truth and stand up for what’s right, even when it’s difficult.

(Day 627) Swords of Iron – “Going Ballistic on Beersheva”

Chaim starts by lamenting the destruction in Ber Sheva that was caused by a last-minute Iranian ballistic missile strike just before the cease-fire went into effect. But, he says, he’s glad to live in a country that cares about its citizens and works hard to protect them, even if sometimes the bad guys land a blow. On that note, Chaim gives some details that are known about what happened in Ber Sheva, including the facts that the missile that struck the building was one of a wave that Iran fired and many more lives could have been lost if people had not been in their bomb shelters.

(Day 625) Swords of Iron – “Kaboom!”

Chaim starts by cheering on the announcement by US President Donald Trump that the US has joined the war against Iran’s nuclear program, defending the free world against one of its most dangerous enemies by destroying the Fordow, Isfahan and Natanz nuclear facilities.

(Day 619) Swords of Iron – “Remember We Didn’t Start This”

Chaim starts by acknowledging that these are difficult times in Israel, with incoming ballistic missiles and drones, cruise missiles and other weapons. Hundreds of people have been rendered homeless and at least 25 have been killed, while many more have been wounded. Israelis have had to run to their bomb shelters on several occasions over the past five days, and sometimes we have to stay there for extended periods, but it’s very important for us to stay safe.
