31. The scary thing is that they actually
Allan   (04.19.10)
believe this nonsense.
32. TYPHOON THE BABOON BUFFOON you won't be able to post this on
Genuine Tosefta ,   Tveria   (04.19.10)
Iranian government approved websites. They do not take criticism lightly, their newly tested most advanced air defense missiles will hit you right between your Asiatic slanted eyes.
33. Yeah right, and country music causes incest.
Heather Czerniak ,   Milwaukee, USA   (04.19.10)
I'm pretty religious myself, but humanity is committing far worse sins than showing a little skin to incur the wrath of the Almighty.
34. #28-Tafun means the Naturei Karta Rabbonim-there I agree!
Alan ,   SA   (04.19.10)
35. Did the Israelis spike Iran's water again?!
Golan ,   Tel Aviv, IL   (04.19.10)
36. WHAT??
M. Hartley ,   Atlanta, US   (04.19.10)
And all this time I thought gays caused earthquakes. At the rate this is going, it won't be too long before even self-help programs will be forbidden and then what? To all Israelis: HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY!!!
37. Immodestly dressed women cause...
Malone ,   Hfx   (04.19.10)
..earthquakes,lol... That's right up there with the "aids infected melons",and the "spy squirrels" from a while back. How does this regime expect to be taken seriously?
38. Oh threatening to destroy G-d's creations (humans) is okay
michael   (04.19.10)
as long as the iranian women are properly dressed? Yeah that makes as much sense as saying Pigs could fly if you only push them off the building first.
39. If anEarth Quake hits one of their new nuclear power plants?
rebecca ,   Modiin   (04.19.10)
40. Is it "loose" women or stupid, self-righteous men?
William ,   Israel   (04.19.10)
How typical of a backward society - no personal responsibility, just blame it on someone else - women, Jews, white men, etc. One must truly ask of Arab society - are the men there so weak, so lacking in self-control, so easily manipulated that they can be made to do anything? If so - can this explain the complete implosion of Islamic society and can we in Israel use this against them?
41. Wow. What women wear affects tectonic plates.
Zvi   (04.19.10)
The presumption seems to be that G-d is as obsessed with women's bodies and clothing as certain senior Iranian male clerics seem to be. I think not.
42. #9 - a waste of money to protect the rights of people?
William ,   Israel   (04.19.10)
Seems like a self-righteous hateful statement on your part to make such a claim. Are handicap ramps and braille on elevator panels also a waste because YOU don't use them? For being a Leftist, you certainly seem comfortable taking rights away from other groups you dislike. For your information - a Shabbat elevator is the same price as a regular one. It incorporates only $1 of extra relays and a switch, but makes a huge difference in some people's lives. Get over yourself!
43. #30 - They did blame us for Indonesia tsunami
William ,   Israel   (04.19.10)
The Arabs claimed Israel was doing nuclear testing under the sea at the point of origination of the tsunami, in the Indian Ocean. Then the followed it up with a claim that the fault line was purposely targeted by the Israeli Mossad to wipe out Muslims in SE Asia. Considering those claims, the claim that loose-clothed women cause earthquakes is pretty benign, but with a large audience of sub-intelligent lemmings which are plentiful in the Muslim world.
44. Silly old me
Sagi   (04.19.10)
I thought it was the Jews.
45. Slow news day?
James ,   Dallas   (04.19.10)
Come now...we're no fans of the mullas, but this is so...
46. Does he really believe
Sunshine ,   Germany   (04.19.10)
what he's talking about? It's unbelievable what's coming off the mouth of such people.
47. To: David at No. 10
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (04.19.10)
Don't forget "I am woman, hear me roar."
48. Men wearing Dippers on their head cause earthquakes
ARIEL   (04.20.10)
scientifically proved!
49. It is right to be moral but full of deceit to deny others'
Jae ,   Lynn US   (04.20.10)
history as they do the Holocaust, and Jewish sovereignty anywhere- especially Jewish homeland.
50. Collectively choking the chicken.
tt   (04.20.10)
Get'er done dude, cause if you are so pent up you are blaming earthquakes on any movement under the burka that results in a chubby, you need to either shoot yourself in the head or cuff the ol' carrot and experience some relief. Good luck with that and remember to avoid thinking of that time you fudge punched your Revolutionary Army comrade cause there weren't any females willing to touch your ugly ass.
51. You have similar crazies in Israel,
Will ,   NYC, USA   (04.20.10)
so don't laugh!
52. One Had Me Quaking This Afternoon :-{)}
emanon ,   USA   (04.20.10)
53. this article
lala ,   jerusalem   (04.20.10)
is not -made in china - it is - made in israil
54. # 51 Will, correct
Sagi   (04.20.10)
About them I do not laugh, I cry.
55. just in public buildings
solomon ,   israel   (04.20.10)
just in public buildings and some hotels 90% of privet building dont have it and yes its stupid
56. Now, what's left for this nuthead is to
Ha-ha   (04.20.10)
blame Israel for the volcanic erruption in Island. Come think of it, it makes a lot of sense, I mean, Iranian "sense".
57. To #21
Iranian Jew ,   LA   (04.20.10)
The monkey says to relocate 5 million from Tehran. Wow! A noble idea. Why don't we move all the mullah's in Tehran to this place that has no earthquake? Then you can let all the bad girls in Tehran in danger of earthquake to stay there. And the problem is solved. Or how about North pole? Maybe we should move them there? No earthquakes there so far. And we can move you to Tehran to teach everyone how honor killing stops earthquakes.
58. Wait a minute, I am mad.
noa ,   israel   (04.20.10)
What about married women who enjoy sex with their husbands? Don't we have any kind of power? And what about kids that don't clean up their rooms? Surely, this must have some divine influence.
59. As a service to my country
R ,   Israel   (04.20.10)
I am donning a magenta spandex minidress and pushup bra underneath a burka and making my way to Teheran. I call on my fellow patriotettes to put on your hottest outfit and join me. If we survive the earthquake, we can hit Damascus on the way back.
60. Sin is a factor in many natural disasters, but HAARP can
Rivkah   (04.20.10)
cause quakes, too. That is an electromagnetic pulse weapon. America, Russia, the EU, and a few other powers have HAARP weapon capability. There is another factor in the earthquakes around the world. About twenty years ago, there was a deep earthquake in South America that shattered all the plates around the earth. Since then, the world has been like a round marble baked in an oven that still looks intact, but would shatter (earthquakes) easily. The Prophet Isaiah warned about the sins that will cause the Lord not to protect Jerusalem from attack: flaunting sodomy, women with wanton eyes, and cheating the poor. Iran has addressed the sodomy problem there with mass hangings. Now they are addressing the apparel of wanton women who do not dress to please the Lord. Believe it or not, that is a protection, just as avoiding eating pork and unclean foods is a protection. Don't think so? Isaiah in chapter 43 said God will walk His people through the floods and the fires, but chapters 65 and 66 says God will not protect swine eaters or those who eat unclean foods. The Muslims cover their women and don't eat pork, so those are protections whether people like it or not. But the elite have decided to bankrupt OPEC and that is going to happen whether the women dress modestly or not. Look at Dubai. It is going bankrupt. God's blessings or promises to His people is food and clothes. Iran and many nations have had much more than God promises even to His people. Imagine having less than food and clothes which is what people who do not belong to God can expect to happen. The sodomites and wanton and thieves of the world are bringing terrible judgments to pass and nothing seems to reach them but harsh crackdowns on offensive lifestyles that bring God's judgment on many.
