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.)

Positive Stories From Afghanistan

In the spirit of continuing to post items regarding Aghanistan that shed light on the complexity of the situation, rather than the MSM's steady diet of doom and gloom, I ran across two inspiring stories.

One is on the man they call the "Afghan Rambo" and how he prevented a suicide bombing at an American base in Kabul. Kim du Toit has the details.

Milblogger Captain Doug Traversa of Afghanistan Without a Clue provides a roundup of related links and elsewhere a rather touching story about Afghanistan's biggest new TV show, "Afghan Star." Kind of puts things in perspective.

These are the sort of stories that if regularly reported (and given front page status) by the MSM, would actually inspire the American public to want to fight the good fight. As it is, we are drowning in a sea of negativity and defeatism. I guess that's the point.
