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.)

Steven Vincent's widow on Fox this afternoon

Email from Lisa Ramaci, widow of Steven Vincent, the American journalist murdered in Basra:

I will be on Fox Cable News (channel 46, I think) at 4 pm New York time, as the 'anti-Michael-Berg', who is running around saying that even tho his son Nick was beheaded live on videotape by Zarqawi and/or his ilk, he forgives him and we shouldn't have killed him.

Needless to say, I am of the opposite mind, which is why, I guess, Fox wants to talk to me!

UPDATE: Lisa says it went very well and they want to have her back. Meanwhile, the anti-Lisa-Ramaci displays his moonbattiness on talk radio. (I'm trying to avoid the overused cheap shot that "moonbat" has become, but it fits Michael Berg so well . . . . If you wanted to stage a photo shoot incorporating almost every cliche of the far Left, the photo of him and Momma Sheehan would be it.

Go Lisa!


According to what he says in the article, Michael Berg is no pacifist. He's just another terror-justifying Leftist in the Chomsky mold.


He said:


Of course. When Nick was killed, I felt that I had nothing left to lose...Now, take someone who in 1991, who maybe had their family killed by an American bomb, their support system whisked away from them, someone who, instead of being 59, as I was when Nick died, was 5-years-old or 10-years-old. And then if I were that person, might I not learn how to fly a plane into a building or strap a bag of bombs to my back?


He also said:


I'm not saying Saddam Hussein was a good man, but he's no worse than George Bush.


Obviously not a fan of democracy.

Considering Berg's view is a way of shrinking from some joy at our victory. It should be tempered not by deluded masochism but by consideration of some good men who fought lawfully to achieve it (realize it is standard on a mission of this sort to have an Air Force combat controller on the ground),

Well, in place of "moonbat" there's a word I've picked up from Tim Blair. It's a bit crude in a hearty Australian way, but does seem fitting: fuckwit.

Also firmly not in the "I forgive jihaddists for whatever they do" camp, Judeah Pearl.

I agree that Berg Sr. draws his "anti-war" sentiments from Chomsky or he would not make such ridiculous moral equivalence arguments.
