I’d like to recommend Judy Isaacson Elias, founder and CEO of Heroes to Heroes Foundation, for a segment centered on: “Allies in War, Partners in Leadership: Israel, America, and Our Veterans.”

Heroes to Heroes brings American combat veterans together with Israeli counterparts, showing how two allied nations not only fight side‑by‑side in a dangerous world, but also shape each other’s leaders. On the ground in Israel—especially against the backdrop of war—U.S. veterans see a partner nation that shares their values: courage under fire, deep love of country, and a belief that ordinary citizens are called to step up as leaders when times are hard.

Judy can discuss:

• How the U.S.–Israel alliance isn’t just about weapons and intelligence, but about developing leaders who value freedom, faith, and responsibility.
• What American veterans learn from Israeli civilians and soldiers living under constant threat—and how that experience reignites their own sense of mission back home.
• Real stories of veterans who return to the U.S. determined to lead in business, churches, civic life, and family because of what they experienced alongside Israel in wartime.

She can frame the current war not only as a security crisis, but as a moment when American and Israeli character are tested together—and when the leadership of our veterans becomes one of America’s greatest strategic strengths.

Potential segment ideas:

• “Allies in War, Partners in Leadership: Israel, America, and Our Veterans”
• “How the U.S.–Israel Bond Is Shaping a New Generation of American Veteran Leaders”

Judy is a clear, hopeful, and substantive guest who connects geopolitics to the human stories of Americans & Israeli’s stepping up to lead. I’d be happy to coordinate dates and provide additional background or clips.
