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.)

I found all the commentary at KesherTalk on Munich very interesting and informative, but the commentary that was supposed to find faults in the film, compared to actual events, were not what I was looking for. I did read an article by Dan Baron at

that satisfied my questions about the film. It's been printed other places too, like
