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.)

Do we have enough Jews?

From Seraphic comment threads:

At the U.S. War College, a general is a guest lecturer and tells the class of officers that the session will focus on potential problems and the resulting strategies.

One of the officers in the class begins by asking the first question, "Will we have to fight in a World War Three, sir?"

"Yes, gentlemen. It looks like you will," answers the general.

"And who will be our enemy, General?" another officer asks.

"The likelihood is that it will be the Muslim Nations," the general responds.

The class is attentive, and finally one officer asks, "But, General, we are 300 million people and they are 1.79 billion. How can we possibly win?"

"Well," replies the general, "Think about it. In modern warfare, it's not the quantity, but the quality that is the key. Look at the Middle East; 5 million Jews have been fighting against 100 million Arabs and the Jews have been victorious every time."

"But sir," asks the inquisitive officer. "Do we have enough Jews?"
