About Kesher Talk

  • "Kesher" means "connection" in Hebrew. The banner image is the mosaic floor of a 6th c. synagogue in Jericho, showing a menorah flanked by a shofar and lulav; the inscription reads "Shalom Al Yisrael." (This synagogue was destroyed by Arab vandals a few years ago. The condition of the mosaic floor is unknown.)

It hurts to cry, it hurts to laugh

Tman in Tennessee on the latest Palestinian child abuse:
Hello Mudda, Hello Fadda Here I am at, Camp Intifada Bombs we're building, belts we're making And we may get to kill some Jews if it stops raining. . . .
Some good news (via email):
Anarchy in Nablus - Itai Asher (Maariv-Hebrew, 9 July 04)

Last week, after IDF soldiers killed a group of terrorist leaders in Nablus, the terror groups declared a three-day general strike in the city. As tens of youth armed with clubs patrolled the city and threatened businessmen who failed to close, for the first time they met with resistance.

According to Lt. Col. Raad Mansour, the IDF's liaison with the Palestinians in Nablus, a doctor who refused to close his clinic was beaten and hospitalized, along with a number of store owners. One prominent lawyer who refused to close his office saw his computers thrown out of a 7th floor window. Two municipal garbage trucks were damaged after their drivers dared to continue to collect garbage.

Anger at the terror groups has made it easier for the IDF to operate inside the refugee camps and the casbah. Only a few months ago, every entry by the IDF was met with mass riots, but today, IDF forays meet much less opposition, said Lt. Col. Avi, a paratroop commander.

I am not going to hold my breath waiting for ISM to volunteer as human shields for these brave people who defy terrorist street gangs.
