Interesting. Very interesting. Thanks for posting this.

I am really surprised by the hands off approach from the Israelis of the temple mount. The illegal work goes on and on and the Israelis do nothing. I remember about the whole stink of the tunnels under the dome of the rock and how the pallies used it as an excuse to start blowing up buses. What the world doesn't know is that the tunnels existed for hundres of years and the press just ignores facts.

Three jews arrested for Temple Mount prayer

Jerusalem police on Tuesday arrested three extreme-right Jews who tried to pray on the Temple Mount during a visit to the ancient holy site, police said. The three teens had attacked both police and Islamic Wakf officials who tried to stop them from praying at the site during a Jewish fast day, Jerusalem police spokesman Shmuel Ben-Ruby said.

According to decades-old police regulations, public prayer at the compound is restricted to Muslims only, with Jews attempting to pray on the Temple Mount routinely arrested.

Earthquake damage to the shrines would trigger some rhetoric but no military action. The kids with rocks would be out in force for a couple of days. Damage to other buildings would be more important since many would be injured by falling debris.

I wonder if there is any connection between the earthquake and the arrest???

God watches everywhere...

Man, I was off, I need more California time to recalibrate!

The first quake months ago was very strange, it hit with a wack and then rumbled off, never felt one quite like that before. This one was normal, started with a gentle shaking that slowly intensified then tapered off.

I have experienced over a hundred earthquakes in my life, (standard California stuff). But the one that cracked the dome was real different. I actually thought it was a distant nuke the way it hit.

Thanks for the actual data. Subjectively, this quake was much milder than the last even if it measured higher.

Probably deeper than the last one.

The last serious earthquake to take place in the Holy Land was in Safed in the 1800's. My daughter lives in Safed now. Next month I'm visiting my parents in LA. Earthquakes are G-D's will, nothing humans can do to stop them.

If there is an earthquake on the Temple Mount, it was predicted (by Prophet Zachariah).

More likely between the prayers and the earthquake, IMHO!

Heehee, I had to read your reply a couple of times before I caught what you were saying ;-)

Shhhhh!!!!

I remember the first Northridge(?)earthquake when I was a kid. No carpet, hardwood floor...my bed went sliding across the room, and I lived near Redondo Beach.

1987 We lived just inside the Long Beach city limits. My son was 7 days old, and my motto is to never waken a sleeping baby, but I felt compelled to pick him up out of his bassinet. A couple of minutes later, the Whittier earthquake struck. My wine glasses were destroyed, and it shook that old place so hard that the doors and windows never shut properly again. How weird that I just knew to pick that baby up even when he was fast asleep...

The Big Bear earthquake sometime in the '90's...We lived in Victorville at the time. That house shook so bad that we couldn't crawl to get under solid door frames. That same boy was so scared, he slept with his father and me for a couple of months.

I should shut up about earthquakes :/

Let's hope that everyone in this earthquake is safe and didn't lose too much.

Hamas took responsibility.

"...The Big Bear earthquake sometime in the '90's...We lived in Victorville at the time."

We're in Riverside County. I remember that one. I recall seeing a picture in the Press-Enterprise of some big boulders on a highway in the Palm Springs area. It was just a mild shaker on our end.
