    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.

    25 Years After 9/11 🇺🇸

    A quarter century has passed since September 11, 2001, but the lessons of that day still matter. Doron Keidar shares insights drawn from 23 years of counterterrorism work on the frontlines in Israel, as well as his experience training law enforcement professionals across the United States. We remember the nearly 3,000 lives lost, honor the first responders and service members who answered the call, and examine how 9/11 changed America, Israel, the Middle East, and the global fight against terrorism. 25 years later, have we learned the lessons of 9/11, or have we begun to forget them? 🇺🇸 Never Forget.

    🚨 BREAKING NEWS: U.S. 🇺🇸 Iran Deal | The Doron Keidar Podcast Special

    In this special breaking-news episode of The Doron Keidar Podcast, Doron Keidar breaks down the reported U.S.–Iran Memorandum of Understanding regarding the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and Tehran’s illicit nuclear weapons program. Iranian state-controlled media is already presenting the deal as a victory over the United States and Israel, boasting that the “U.S. is forced to sign an agreement to end the war.” But what does this actually mean? The Islamic Republic of Iran remains the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism, and its propaganda machine has long been used to spread anti-American, anti-Israel, and pro-regime narratives. Any agreement with Tehran must be judged not by headlines, ceremonies, or diplomatic language — but by whether it truly dismantles the regime’s nuclear threat and weakens the IRGC. The United States should negotiate from a position of strength, not from desperation. History shows that evil regimes do not abandon their ambitions because of paper agreements. Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan were transformed only after total defeat. The same principle applies today: the IRGC and the Islamic Republic’s terror infrastructure must be defeated, dismantled, and denied the ability to threaten the free world. In this episode, we ask: Is this deal a real breakthrough — or a dangerous propaganda victory for Tehran? 🎙️ Watch now on The Doron Keidar Podcast.
