ARC Israel Updates

Chaim says it looks like there is a turning point in the war, with many Hamas terrorists surrendering and a marked decrease in the number of rockets being fired into Israel from Gaza. But this has come at a price as dozens of IDF troops have been killed in action while hundreds more have been wounded, many seriously.

He asks his viewers to put a comment in the comments section about anything they’ve done in their lives which was physically dangerous, but worthwhile. He says that this is what every single IDF soldier is doing while they’re in Gaza.

Chaim mentions the names of several Hamas leaders and says that the military commander, Yahya Sinwar, whose name sounds like the Hebrew word meaning a “blinding light.”

Chaim says that, sadly, many people around the world are being blinded by the light of lies that Hamas and its supporters are spreading. He also mentions the increasing tensions on Israel’s northern border and the increasingly bellicose threats from the Iranian-backed Houthi rebel groups in Yemen.

He says that we have no choice but to stand up for the truth amidst all these lies and he applauds public figures who are doing so, including former President Donald Trump and TV personality Dr. Phil.

He laments the fact that so many people don’t want to believe the truth, even if you prove it to them they will simply deny it.

He then switches focus to thanking his viewers for donating the money that makes it possible for the Aliyah Return Center to donate body armor to soldiers and take care of families who have had to flee the border regions which have become conflict zones.

Chaim continues by quoting Zechariah 4:1-7; Now the angel who talked with me came back and wakened me, as a man who is wakened out of his sleep. And he said to me, “What do you see?” So I said, “I am looking, and there is a lampstand of solid gold with a bowl on top of it, and on the stand seven lamps with seven pipes to the seven lamps. Two olive trees are by it, one at the right of the bowl and the other at its left.” So I answered and spoke to the angel who talked with me, saying, “What are these, my lord?”

Then the angel who talked with me answered and said to me, “Do you not know what these are?” And I said, “No, my lord.” So he answered and said to me: ‘This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ Says the Lord of hosts. ‘Who are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you shall become a plain! And he shall bring forth the capstone
With shouts of “Grace, grace to it!” ’ ”

 Chaim then paraphrases this passage by rhetorically asking “who are YOU Hamas” that you think you can change the plans and purposes of God for the Land and People of Israel?

He concludes by saying it’s a great time to shine a light of the truth in this world, adding on a hopeful note that he thinks this war will be over soon.

(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.
