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.)

Hekmatyar still at large

Unfortunately, we have to correct a previous post - the terrorist arrested in Afghanistan several days ago is NOT Gulbuddin Hekmatyar. Darn.

I had already started writing something lachrymos about what a shame that Ahmad Shah Massoud didn't live to see this happen . . . . . given that Massoud's assassination kind of touched off the 9-11 era, neutralizing his old nemesis Hekmatyar on or near 9-11 would be some kind of poetic justice.
