No it isn't. Jokes are completely defensible - how is it "bad"? Maybe it isn't particularly respectful to the dead, but so what? Why not derive maximum possible enjoyment from life?

Incidentally, help from the "Zionist Regime" has been forbidden. The love these leaders hold for their people knows no bounds, it seems...

edit: I feel guilty for not at least posting condolences here originally, and only focusing on the politics of this occurrence.
I obviously know that this is a terrible occurrence, yet, I am almost inured to mass deaths occurring all over the world after so many times of it occurring...but at least it is not some product of hatred or fanaticism...small condolence that is, I know...

Considering that we are sitting on the San Andreas fault, the New Madrid fault, and a Super Caldera, each one waiting to cause a catastrophe that will kill millions, the US shouldn't feel too safe.

Iran banned all aide from zionist regimes by the way, does that include the US?

Hey, hey, hey, hey!

BTW: California has an earthquake of similar magnitude earlier this week. An historic clocktower collapsed, killing two women.

Iran: 20,000
USA: 2

God bless our building codes.

If I were pres. Bush I would warn Iran to admit his earthquake weapon program and handle them to the US or suffer an invasion.

New Madrid fault is right next to St. Louis.

It's about due, too. W/in the next 100 years.
