A prominent Kabbalah leader says that gays have brought a plague of bird flu on Israel.

Kabbalah, or Jewish mysticism, is practiced by thousands around the world - including stars such as Madonna and Sandra Bernhard and Roseanne - although it is not part of mainstream Judaism.

Rabbi David Basri, head of the Magen David Yeshiva in Jerusalem, on Tuesday lashed out at the left of center Meretz Party for running election ads supporting same-sex marriage.

Israelis elect a new government this month and Meretz is the only party supporting gay marriage. (story)

7. This reminds me of the dynamic duo(Falwell and Robertson)

Just after 9/11, they blamed it on God's disfavor with US over gay rights and abortion. Weak minds always have to blame something. But the topper for me was Robertson's reply when asked about the Indian Ocean Tsunami. It wasn't God's fault. According to the good reverend, God doesn't do tectonic plates.

8. "Hate speech is illegal in Israel, although gays and lesbians

are not included." What a wonderful law.

Shouldn't this prick be spending more time concentrating on making peace with Palestine and less time attacking gay people who, the last time I checked, don't blow up many Israeli buses?
