news.nana10.co.il...

www.ynet.co.il...

Why is there something wrong? None of those links work for me.

Apart from the earthquake that is? 5.7 is not that big is it? (correct me if i'm wrong there).

Are you hinting that something other than natural causes caused it?

It's of plenty of interest to me . I hope no one was hurt. Didn't know there was 3 faults in Jerusalem, that is also interesting.

If you didn't care and this was not newsworthy why did you even bother reading and replying to the OP!

It is of interest to some of us here!
