00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,000
We are coming up on the anniversary of the October 7th attack on Israel from

2
00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:08,160
Hamas, which happened one year ago.

3
00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:11,480
And that happened right around Yom Kippur,

4
00:00:11,500 --> 00:00:14,080
which is that one of the high holy days in Israel.

5
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:17,960
And we are on the cusp of that as well. Right now,

6
00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:21,440
Rosh Hashanah is currently happening as we're recording this.

7
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:26,720
And James Lasher is here to join me as we share some videos and share some

8
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:31,720
images of what has been going on in Israel. And it is rather amazing.

9
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:32,960
James, great to have you here.

10
00:00:33,480 --> 00:00:34,520
Thanks for having me again, John.

11
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:40,120
Yeah. So I want to first share this video here of attack over Tel Aviv,

12
00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:44,880
because over the last weekend or so, the last few days,

13
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:49,880
Iran has launched missiles and it has in some cases overwhelmed the Iron Dome.

14
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:52,960
So let's take a look at this.

15
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:55,360
Okay, guys, we got to get off the roof.

16
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:57,360
These are coming down right next to us here.

17
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:03,360
They're coming down one just about. We got to go inside.

18
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,360
It's like a deadly,

19
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:10,360
a deadly fireworks display over Tel Aviv.

20
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,360
Goodness. There was an impact just to the left of us here.

21
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,560
Those are not shooting stars.

22
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:25,560
Those are missiles that are flying over the largest city outside of Jerusalem

23
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:34,240
in Israel. And speaking of Jerusalem, I've got this video,

24
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:39,040
but I want to share this because it's really important that we kind of have the

25
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:51,040
context of the broad strokes of this attack.

26
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:55,040
Here you can see attacks over Jerusalem, the old city there. James,

27
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,540
what is your takeaway from some of these images that you're seeing?

28
00:01:59,340 --> 00:02:02,640
Well, Iran just is not caring who they're targeting. I mean,

29
00:02:02,940 --> 00:02:07,040
reports have said that the only person killed in these ballistic missile attacks

30
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:08,840
was a Palestinian man.

31
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:13,240
And when we see these rockets flying over major urban centers,

32
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:18,040
all it will take is one errant missile striking the Temple Mount or the

33
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:22,440
Wailing Wall, as you saw in the video, for chaos to erupt,

34
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:27,240
not just in the Middle East, but this would cause worldwide disruption.

35
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:32,240
As whenever you get the very focal point of biblical end times prophecy,

36
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:33,240
which is Israel,

37
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:37,240
which is specifically Jerusalem and the Temple Mount involved in this,

38
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:41,040
it can open the door to a very scary situation.

39
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:44,640
But thankfully we know what the end game is going to be because we have the

40
00:02:44,640 --> 00:02:47,040
Word of God and we can take comfort in that instead of fear.

41
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:52,440
But it shows a unprecedented response from Iran for Israel

42
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:56,440
assassinating the leader of Hezbollah a few days ago.

43
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,440
Yeah. And so I want to show this picture here,

44
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:03,840
which is actually a viral picture of the Iron Dome in action,

45
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,040
where you can see on the right hand of this image,

46
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:11,040
there is missiles heading towards the population center.

47
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:16,240
And on the left hand side, you can see these streaks that are

48
00:03:16,740 --> 00:03:21,240
basically, they are missiles that are going up and intercepting these

49
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:22,240
enemy missiles.

50
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:26,040
And this image has gone viral because you can see that there's,

51
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,040
you know, it's just one attack after another.

52
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,040
And this is how Israel's defending itself.

53
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:35,240
But there are strikes that are hitting the ground and we want to show

54
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:36,440
some of these right now.

55
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:46,440
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo.

56
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:58,240
Now, with this Arabic or Hebrew is neither one of our first languages.

57
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:00,240
I only know a few biblical words.

58
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:04,840
So if they're saying anything that is not kosher, we apologize.

59
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:08,640
But this is primarily we want to show you what is going on.

60
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:12,040
Here's another image that is really striking.

61
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:30,040
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo.

62
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:35,440
And this one right here you can see impacts are actually fast hitting

63
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:36,140
into the cities.

64
00:04:36,140 --> 00:04:39,340
Wow.

65
00:04:39,340 --> 00:04:40,340
Wow, James.

66
00:04:40,340 --> 00:04:42,740
So you've actually spent time in the military.

67
00:04:42,740 --> 00:04:46,940
Tell me from your understanding about some of these things that

68
00:04:46,940 --> 00:04:47,340
we're seeing.

69
00:04:47,340 --> 00:04:48,740
I mean, those are big attacks.

70
00:04:48,740 --> 00:04:50,540
Absolutely.

71
00:04:50,540 --> 00:04:55,740
What Israel has is a multi-layered missile defense system with the

72
00:04:55,740 --> 00:04:57,540
Iron Dome, which has really caught a lot of headlines.

73
00:04:57,540 --> 00:04:59,840
It's the most popular that people know of.

74
00:04:59,840 --> 00:05:03,240
That's really for short-range unguided rockets.

75
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:07,740
But what I ran fired at them recently were medium to long-range

76
00:05:07,740 --> 00:05:09,340
guided ballistic missiles.

77
00:05:09,340 --> 00:05:12,840
And so those fall under the categories of the David sling system,

78
00:05:12,840 --> 00:05:16,940
as well as the arrow two and three systems, which the arrow two

79
00:05:16,940 --> 00:05:21,240
and three can intercept intercontinental ballistic missiles that

80
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:22,940
even can access space.

81
00:05:22,940 --> 00:05:26,040
They go so high up into the atmosphere and into the outer reaches

82
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:26,540
of space.

83
00:05:26,540 --> 00:05:28,740
These missiles are bigger.

84
00:05:28,740 --> 00:05:29,640
They have more fuel.

85
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:31,640
They cause more damage and they're faster.

86
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:35,340
And what a lot of the Israeli missile defense system does is

87
00:05:35,340 --> 00:05:40,640
these missile defenses ram the missiles.

88
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:41,740
They don't just detonate.

89
00:05:41,740 --> 00:05:43,940
The only one that does is the arrow two system.

90
00:05:43,940 --> 00:05:48,140
And so if you see an explosion from that, that's the countermeasure

91
00:05:48,140 --> 00:05:49,840
detonating next to the warhead.

92
00:05:49,840 --> 00:05:53,140
Other than that, when you see the explosions in the skies, those

93
00:05:53,140 --> 00:05:57,240
are the missiles detonating from the countermeasure systems that

94
00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:58,440
Israel has fired against us.

95
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,640
That's a hit to kill system.

96
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:06,940
Yeah, so I found this this information graphic that the BBC

97
00:06:06,940 --> 00:06:12,340
put together from the CSIS missile threat explaining a little bit

98
00:06:12,340 --> 00:06:15,840
about the Iron Dome, the David sling and the arrow system.

99
00:06:15,840 --> 00:06:19,240
So the Iron Dome basically intercepts short-range Rockets, as

100
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:22,440
you said, unguided from within 10 kilometers.

101
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:26,940
So about six miles for those of us that don't use kilometers and

102
00:06:26,940 --> 00:06:29,540
David sling is 15 kilometers.

103
00:06:29,540 --> 00:06:31,840
So that's probably 12 miles or so.

104
00:06:31,840 --> 00:06:36,340
And then the arrow system goes to a hundred kilometers.

105
00:06:36,340 --> 00:06:41,240
And so they do intercept those ballistic missiles and going on

106
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:41,640
with that.

107
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:47,640
Basically the enemy rocket is fired a radar detection system

108
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:52,040
picks up that rocket and then tells where that impact point

109
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:52,440
should be.

110
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:57,440
And then if that impact point is an unpopulated area, they kind

111
00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:58,040
of let it go.

112
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:02,140
But if the impact would be a city center, they shoot off a

113
00:07:02,140 --> 00:07:06,040
intercept rocket and then it explodes near there destroying

114
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:07,240
the enemy rocket.

115
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:12,640
So James, you were talking about the dangers of an EMP that

116
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,240
would basically annihilate all of this.

117
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:16,440
Sure.

118
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,440
Anything that would disrupt the power grid, whether it's a lot

119
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,440
of this talk has been here in the United States about the

120
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,040
dangers presented to us with an unguarded power grid.

121
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:25,440
The same thing affects Israel.

122
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:28,740
But if you lose power to these defensive countermeasure

123
00:07:28,740 --> 00:07:33,840
systems, well, then I ran Yemen has Bola even Hamas still

124
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,040
that's within the country that's now fighting a guerrilla

125
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:37,040
war against Israel.

126
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,540
They're able to fire these intercontinental ballistic missiles,

127
00:07:40,540 --> 00:07:44,240
these short-range rockets and everything in between at Israel

128
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:48,440
and they would lose their practical abilities to defend

129
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:50,040
their nation from annihilation.

130
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,040
But thankfully they have the hand of the Lord there protecting

131
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:53,640
them as well.

132
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:54,540
Amen.

133
00:07:54,540 --> 00:07:58,940
James, I know right now as we're recording this Israel is

134
00:07:58,940 --> 00:08:02,140
actually making advances into southern Lebanon.

135
00:08:02,140 --> 00:08:03,540
What do you know about that?

136
00:08:03,540 --> 00:08:04,740
Right.

137
00:08:04,740 --> 00:08:08,440
So they've amassed troops, tanks, troop transports, as well

138
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,840
as fuel for a limited occupation of southern Lebanon.

139
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,240
They're trying to root out Hezbollah, which they've already

140
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:18,440
encountered many tunnels, dozens and dozens of them, perhaps

141
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,340
over a hundred from what reports are coming in as but they're

142
00:08:21,340 --> 00:08:24,440
also continuing to strike Hezbollah headquarters in Beirut.

143
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:28,340
Even as we're speaking right now, but what the world is kind

144
00:08:28,340 --> 00:08:32,940
of waiting for is the Israeli response to Iran's retaliation

145
00:08:32,940 --> 00:08:36,640
as we see this situation continue to escalate and escalate

146
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,640
and escalate Israel said they will retaliate.

147
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:40,640
It's just a matter of time.

148
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:41,440
Yeah.

149
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:45,240
Now I want to show a map here that is something that Israel

150
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:50,640
has put out on social media on X with this is a map of Israel

151
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:53,440
and all of these flags that you see here in the middle are

152
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:57,840
impact points or points that have been under attack and you

153
00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:01,440
can see this is really what they mean whenever they say from

154
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,140
the river to the sea Palestine will be free.

155
00:09:04,140 --> 00:09:09,240
They want to wipe Israel off of the face of the earth, not

156
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,140
just the face of the map, the face of the earth.

157
00:09:11,140 --> 00:09:12,040
It appears this way.

158
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:17,240
And so our hearts and our prayers go out for the people

159
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:20,340
of Israel for the leadership there that they would have wisdom

160
00:09:20,340 --> 00:09:23,840
and that they would have that strategy from the Lord.

161
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,440
We know all throughout biblical history.

162
00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:32,140
I love that Elisha was a prophet that basically God was speaking

163
00:09:32,140 --> 00:09:36,340
to him what the enemies with the Assyrians were doing and

164
00:09:36,340 --> 00:09:39,540
the Assyrian King said it's like he's in our bedroom.

165
00:09:39,540 --> 00:09:45,440
And so we just want to pray that all of the evil attacks

166
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:50,240
of the enemy are thwarted and that the voice of the Lord

167
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,440
is heard and that the people of Israel were going to be able

168
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:54,440
to be defended.

169
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:58,140
James, I want to just take a moment and pray for Israel.

170
00:09:58,140 --> 00:10:00,240
But before we do that, do you have any closing thoughts?

171
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:04,740
Well, this we really see these things escalating at a pace

172
00:10:04,740 --> 00:10:08,140

173
00:10:08,140 --> 00:10:09,040
of war in Israel.

That's when their enemies have attacked her and it's so important

175
00:10:11,940 --> 00:10:15,440
for us as Christians to pray for our Jewish brothers and

176
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,940
sisters to pray for the peace of Jerusalem and to pray over

177
00:10:18,940 --> 00:10:20,740
Israel as the Bible says.

Dome, the David sling and the arrow system.

190

But Lord God, we know that you are our protector.

00:10:54,340 --> 00:10:57,640
You are Israel's protector and they are the apple of your

192
00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:01,940
eye. God, we just pray that as we look into the scriptures

193
00:11:01,940 --> 00:11:05,740
and we see that the end is coming near that we would have

194
00:11:05,740 --> 00:11:09,240
faith and we would hold on to you and Lord God that the

195
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:13,440
people in Israel people around the world would see and be

196

199
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:28,640
come to a resolution quickly.
