    October 7 Three-Year Anniversary Special: IDF Soldier's Firsthand Account

    October 7 Three-Year Anniversary Special: An IDF Soldier’s Firsthand Account from Nova and Kibbutz Kisufim In this special episode of the Frontline Israel podcast marking three years since October 7, Doron Keidar sits down with “Alef”—an unnamed IDF soldier from the Givati Brigade—who was on duty in Samaria for the high holiday when the massacres began. When news of the attacks reached them, “Alef”, his commander, and a handful of fellow soldiers jumped into vehicles and raced 80 kilometers south toward the chaos. They arrived at the Nova music festival, where terrorists were still hunting survivors, and later pushed on to Kibbutz Kisufim, continuing the fight until “Alef” was wounded in combat. This is the raw, unfiltered story of a small group of soldiers who drove straight into the killing spree—what they saw, what they did, and the price they paid. A powerful firsthand testimony for the three-year anniversary of October 7. If you’re interested in the Middle East, Israel, geopolitics, and the war of ideas, this conversation is for you.

    Pastor Jim Scudder | The Spiritual War Against Israel

    Is Support for Israel a Political Stance—or a Biblical Mandate? In this episode of the Frontline Israel podcast, Jim Scudder Jr.—pastor, author, and host of In Grace—joins Doron Keidar to unpack the arguments from his new book, The Spiritual War Against Israel: Defending Biblical Zionism & Understanding Israel’s Place in God’s Prophetic Plan (co-authored with Phil Stringer). As antisemitism rises from both the political left and right, Jim makes a clear case: the battle over Israel is not merely political—it is spiritual and prophetic. We dig into the biblical foundations for supporting Israel and the Jewish people, confront hard questions about Scripture’s condemnations of Israel, and examine fringe claims like the Khazar Theory. We close with practical steps Christians can take today to stand with the Jewish people. Whether you’re a pastor, a student of Scripture, or simply trying to understand today’s headlines through a biblical lens, this conversation delivers clarity, conviction, and a call to action.

    Edmund Fitton-Brown | UN Obsession with Israel | The Doron Keidar Podcast

They dive deep into the United Nations’ toxic and disproportionate obsession with Israel — from biased resolutions and endless condemnations to the systemic double standards that undermine the organization’s credibility. Edmund also exposes how China is actively reshaping the UN General Assembly into an anti-Western bloc, forging alliances that threaten democratic values, Western influence, and the rules-based international order. If you want to understand the hidden dynamics driving global diplomacy, anti-Israel bias at the UN, and the strategic power plays reshaping the world stage, this is a must-listen.
