The man who ran toward danger: Ari Fuld remembered

WATCH: “Judeacation” with Josh Hasten and guest Miriam Fuld, Ep. 9

What does it mean to live with courage, conviction and purpose in Israel’s biblical heartland? In this emotional episode of “Judeacation” on JNS TV, host Josh Hasten sits down with Miriam Fuld to honor the life, legacy and heroism of her late husband, Ari Fuld—an American-Israeli hero who was murdered in a 2018 terrorist attack.

Broadcasting from the JNS Media Hub in Jerusalem, Josh and Miriam reflect on Ari’s extraordinary life as a Torah teacher, IDF soldier and fearless advocate for Israel on social media and beyond. Viewers will hear firsthand how Ari ran toward danger, even with a fatal wound, to stop a terrorist from harming others—an act that saved lives and cemented his place as a modern-day hero.

Miriam shares deeply personal stories about Ari’s passion for truth, his impact on Israeli and global audiences and the ongoing legal battle in the U.S. Supreme Court to hold the Palestinian Authority accountable for supporting terror. The episode also touches on how the Fuld family continues Ari’s mission through the Ari Fuld Project, supporting IDF soldiers and truth-based Hasbara.

This episode is a powerful reminder of what it means to defend your people, your land and your truth—no matter the cost.
