6. earthquake
noel ,   israel   (09.09.06)
It felt a lot stronger than 4.4 as i sat at my computer in the Sharon area in a 1985 built building. Don't know what's more scary islamo-fascism or nature. Makes a change to worry about something else. Let's blame the government.

13. This is a warning shot from GOD to the Israelites
Sammy ,   Canada   (09.09.06)
Suprise me because this area is not located in the earthquick hot zones but still hit!!! This is could a warning to the Israel -If Israelis dont stop their unjustified killings and aggressional and humans rights violations on palestinians in Gaza and westbank. God is watching and he will not let this from happening without a punishments. So there is to for Israelis to repent and clean their acts before god interfers!!

15. Joshua, USA, could be right !
Marcel Abel ,   (France)   (09.09.06)
It is impossible to do any energetic activity- rocket launch, explosion-nuclear or conventional, without leaving a signature that can be detected- acoustic, seismic, optical, RF, etc. by someone's sensor. So how do you hide an underground nuclear test- detonate it underneath a large surface blast " we are building a hydroelectric plant" as a cover. By the time the shock waves propagate to the seismometers, they will be mixed and phase shifted that you probably could not separate the two signatures.

16. Jews will be protected
Zico ,   Brazil   (09.09.06)
not to worry guys, right after world war 2, majority of jewish people will only die through natural death. Let others do the dying so that israel and jews can continue to live in prosper.

david ,   jerusalem israel   (09.09.06)
this guy is just another "trailor trash" using modern politics to disguise his anti-semitism .while we may bear down on the palestinians it is only out of self protection and that to all anti-semites is forbidden

Martin ,   Boston, MA   (09.09.06)
Hey, Samir, you are as ignorant about geography as you are about God. Every educated and intelligent person knows that the Jordan River valley is an earthquake zone. On the other hand, Islamic fascists and their apologists aren't big on modern science and technology, are they? You are ignorant about something else, Samir; the problem with the Middle East is Islamic fanatics not Israel. If Islamic terrorists stopped attacking Israel, there would be peace. If Israel stopped defending herself against you, there would be no more Israel.
20. 13: Or perhaps it was...
Ehud ,   Israel   (09.09.06)
Because of the plate boundary between the Arabian and African tectonic plates which is situated right under Israel? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Plates_tect2_en.svg) Hmm... you decide.
21. #13 – You Ignorant Bugger!
Deon ,   MD, USA   (09.09.06)
I'm always amazed by the ignorance of some people! Ever heard of the Syrian-African Rift. Go learn some Geography... how about some History too! Maybe you will understand the ignorance of your words!
22. felt in Raanana
mike ,   raanana   (09.09.06)
I felt the earthquake sitting in my dining room at 8 am.
23. for ignorant Sammy
(09.10.06)
Besides showing stupidity in political arena, Israel sits on earthquake zone. The Jordan Valley, Dead sea are on top of the Afro-Asian tectonic moving plates Idiot
24. It was felt
gabriela ben ari ,   jerusalem   (09.10.06)
I was getting dressed and the doors of my wardrove banged "for no reason". I assumed it was an earthquake, so I checked the lamp hanging. It was moving.
25. A new all-time low
Lauren ,   Israel   (09.10.06)
Some of the more brainless comments here about Israel being punished, etc. - oh give me a break!!!!!!!! It was an eeny, teeny, itsy, bitsy little tiny earthquake you fools, and yes, we are indeed on the Afro-Syrian rift, as #13 here says. I guess then that Californians must have done some mighty bad stuff what with all the earthquakes there.
26. Found this
Lauren ,   Israel   (09.10.06)
http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2006/09/09/africa/ME_GEN_Jordan_Earthquake.php You see? The Jordanians know the score. Oh and in my last post I referred to #21, and not # 13. Mistake.
27. Quake Maps - S. of Jericho
Elisheva Rubin ,   Cleveland, USA   (09.10.06)
I have posted some maps to show where it is: http://earthquakeswhy.forumsplace.com/forum-63.html In re talk: What is occurring is that the African hits the Arabian plate, which in turn swings around and hits Iran - and Syria too! In re who is at risk? Almost all those killed in the Dec. 2004 Tsunami were Muslims, and especially those in area which had come under Sharia law. The Israeli survival rate, faced by Tsunami, was less then 1%! I advise all Muslims currently in the biblical territories of Israel - which includes Lebanon - to evacuate.
28. Correction! Israelis survive almost 100%
Elisheva ,   Cleveland, USA   (09.10.06)
Excuse me! I left out a word. Israeli Jewish survival in the face of the Tsunami was almost 100%! Less then 1% perished, and in dramatic situations. For example, an Israeli surfer was in Sri Lanka and literally surfed the Tsunami! Jews almost always survive when faced with these "natural" disasters. G-d can easily intervene on our behalf. Muslims perish at the highest rate. Note that this is the case in Pakistan - Islamabad! - etc.
29. WHAT IS GOIN TO BE NEXT?
O.A.Akande ,   OSUN STATE,NIGERIA   (09.13.06)
What i believe will happen next is that the abomination standing in the holy place would be divinely removed.
