ARC Israel Updates

Chaim starts out by lamenting the fact that although there is ample evidence to prove that the atrocities of October 7th took place and there is also ample evidence that Hamas has used its control of the Gaza Strip to build terrorist infrastructure like tunnels and weapons stockpiles in hospitals, mosques and schools, many people still refuse to believe it. He compares this to Holocaust denial, which is a growing phenomenon throughout the Western world, particularly among young people.

He reminds his viewers that Hamas is a registered terrorist organization that uses suicide bombers, rockets and many other means to attack civilians. He gives a personal testimony of an incident which occurred in 2000 when he said goodbye to his mother who was about to get on one bus while he got on another. A few moments later he heard an explosion and the driver said it sounded like a bus blew up, so Chaim got off the bus and ran back to see the bus he thought his mom was on had been blown up. He started looking through the wreckage and the bodies, looking for his mother, but then he realized he should try to call her and when he did she answered and told him she’d missed the bus. This terrorist attack was carried out by Hamas, and Chaim is still having to battle this organization 23 years later.

He goes on to say that in order to prevent such attacks Israel built a wall along the line between Israel and Judea and Samaria, where most of the suicide attackers were coming from, to better control and monitor traffic between these areas and Israeli cities.

But Chaim says the problem is not just physical control, it’s that Hamas thinks it’s still allowed in 2023 to do things like the Vandals and Vikings did back in the Middle Ages. But it’s NOT allowed to burn, pillage, murder and rape, and that’s why the IDF is fighting to put an end to this evil organization who thinks this is allowed in 2023.

He goes on to describe another front in the conflift in Jenin, where the IDF is battling Hamas but also street gangs like the Lions Den organization which have essentially kicked the Palestinian Authority security forces out of the city and gone on a rampage against both the Palestinian civilians who live there and nearby Israeli communities.

He also mentions the large numbers of Hamas gunmen who are surrendering to IDF forces, handing over their weapons and military equipment. Chaim says it’s necassary for light to win out over darkness, just like it’s recorded in the Books of the Macabbees, where the traditions of Hanukkah come from. Chaim is recording the video on the 8th night of Hanukkah so it’s a good time to remember that “we’re modern day Macabbes” shining the light to overcome the darkness.

He asks his viewers to join in making a sacrifice of praise to God for all His goodness and all He’s doing in the world today, through the IDF and Israel and through His Church, every single God fearing home, and Chaim asks his viewers to make a personal decision to re-dedicate their home, their family and their lives to God’s plans and purposes, reminding themselves that “I am a vessel of the King”!

And all of God’s people said…amen.

(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.
