Doron Keidar

Welcome to the Doron Keidar podcast, where we defend Israel. Doron is a security professional and IDF-reservist with 20 years of military and defense experience. This podcast is dedicated to 2 heroes. First, Doron's former commander, Captain Leonardo Weisman z"l, who fell in battle in Gaza on Dec. 22, and taught us that "a man lives in a world he builds for himself". And second, Captain Eliya Yanovsky, who was killed in combat in Khan Younis on Dec.11, 2023, and who had the words "Facta, Non Verba" tattooed on his arm, meaning "acts, not words". In the same spirit, we continue their legacy.

    Staring Down the IRGC: How a Lorestan Gym Owner Became Iran's Unbreakable Christian Voice

    Ali Rezaei Majd — is the fearless Iranian fitness giant who stared down the IRGC regime and ignited a firestorm. A towering, tattooed former gym owner from the warrior province of Lorestan, Ali had secretly followed Jesus for ten years in the shadows of persecution. On January 5th, he joined the streets of Doroud demanding freedom — only to watch the Revolutionary Guard forces gun down his friends in cold blood! The very next day, with bullets still echoing, he recorded a raw, defiant video in English. He exposed the regime’s lies, declared that Iranians do not hate America or Israel, and cried out for liberty: “Our voices are silenced… our people are suffering.” That single act of courage went viral — nearly 2 million views in English and almost 10 million in Farsi. The IRGC regime immediately hunted him down. Undeterred, Ali fled on foot, evading capture for days before escaping across the border into Iraq. Now this Christian “sheepdog for the Lord” continues his fight, calling for the jihadi regime’s downfall while offering forgiveness to his persecutors. A powerful symbol of unbreakable faith and fearless defiance.

    Is God A Zionist? | Christopher Kuehl & John Enarson | The Doron Keidar Podcast

    In a world obsessed with Israel—where headlines ignite endless debate, conspiracy theories swirl, and Christians are pulled into polarized camps—one question cuts through the noise: Is God a Zionist? In this timely and thought-provoking interview, I sit down with Christopher Kuehl, author of the new book Is God a Zionist? Finding God’s Story in a World Obsessed with Israel, and John Enarson, Christian theologian, Evangelical educator, author, and longtime resident of Israel who serves in Christian relations work. Christopher draws from his theological studies, years living in Jerusalem, and a careful examination of Scripture, church history, and today’s cultural firestorms. John brings an on-the-ground perspective from Israel, including insights into Messianic congregations, daily Christian life in the land, and the deeper biblical drama unfolding there. Whether you’re wrestling with evangelical support for Israel, concerned about rising antisemitism masked as anti-Zionism, or simply seeking a biblically grounded perspective free from hype or hostility, this conversation offers fresh clarity. Christopher and John challenge listeners to step back from the noise, return to Scripture, and consider: What if God’s story with Israel isn’t over—but is central to His redemptive plan for all nations?

    Defending Israel: Inside the World of Shana Meyerson | The Doron Keidar Podcast

    Join me for an inspiring and powerful conversation with Shana Meyerson, the renowned Los Angeles-based yoga influencer and creator of YOGAthletica — a dynamic, hardcore approach to yoga that has empowered students worldwide since 2002 — and mini yogis, her innovative yoga program designed especially for children, complete with global teacher trainings. Shana’s passion extends far beyond the yoga mat: Israel and the Jewish people have been the cornerstones of her life for even longer. As a proud member of the elite World Jewish Congress Jewish Diplomatic Corps, the Israel Bonds National Women’s Board, and AIPAC, Shana has long been a vocal advocate for the Jewish State and community. Following the horrors of October 7, 2023, she made the bold decision to pause her professional yoga career and dedicate herself full-time to advocacy for the Jewish People and Israel. In July 2024, she launched The Yoga of War Podcast (available on her YOGAthletica YouTube channel and major platforms), where she hosts provocative, educational, and deeply meaningful discussions with some of the world’s most prominent pro-Israel voices. These conversations explore the moral, historical, and human dimensions of conflict, resilience, and truth — and hosting them has been, in her words, the honor of a lifetime. In this interview, we dive into Shana’s journey from elite athlete to world-class yogi, her unwavering commitment to Jewish advocacy, the challenges of speaking out in the wellness space by combating the disinformation war against Israel also known as the eighth front.

    Sagiv Asulin ex-Mossad: Why Venezuela Was Just the Opening Shot Against Iran

    In this eye-opening episode, I welcome Sagiv Asulin, a leading expert on Iran, influence operations, and strategic perception at the Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Affairs (JCFA). As a former senior officer and operations commander in the Mossad, Israel’s elite spy agency, Asulin brings decades of hands-on experience in intelligence, national security strategy, and global outreach. We connect the dots between the recent daring U.S. Delta Force operation in Venezuela—capturing dictator Nicolás Maduro—and President Trump’s broader strategy to confront tyrannical regimes. Asulin explores how toppling the Ayatollahs’ oppressive rule in Iran could be a decisive step toward reasserting U.S. dominance, defending Western values, and countering the intertwined threats from extreme woke ideologies, communist influences, and Islamist networks. Asulin’s work delves into the powerful intersection of influence warfare, faith-based diplomacy, and Iran’s vast threat network. At JCFA, he works to forge international partnerships that combat malign influence and build strategic awareness among allies. His urgent focus today is exposing and defeating what he and other Israeli leaders call Israel’s “eighth front”—the relentless information war. While Israel battles multiple physical fronts, this hidden theater of disinformation, manipulated narratives, and perception management represents an existential challenge. Join us as Asulin shares battle-tested insights on how to fight back effectively—with truth, clarity, and strategic resolve. Perfect for anyone interested in Iran’s shadow operations, cognitive warfare, the future of global security, and the high-stakes battle against authoritarianism worldwide.
