I came across this radio station a couple of days ago. Although projects like this that aim to encourage communication between the Jewish and Muslim communities are not novel ideas nowadays, they are definitely commendable for their efforts. I haven't caught many of the talk shows yet - mostly just music so far. I'm tuning in as I write this and they just played Talk Talk, The Verve, Garbage, and David Bowie. Last night they played some Jewish contemporary music. The station is based out of Bristol and aims to encourage dialogue and understanding between the Muslim and Jewish communities. Please check out their official site HERE.
On a related note, I've been avidly reading and watching Aljazeera lately. As of November, 2006 they now have an English news site complete with video broadcasts. Check it out HERE.
