The coast that was damaged was along the pacific ocean. And despite the high magnitude, the shaking (at least according to that scale, a 4) was not very intense. In other words that was a nothing earthquake, and I am just hearing about it right now.

Looks like they used an image that was of the most recent earthquake to have happened when they looked at the site, just assuming it was the larger one... Instead of one of the countless tiny ones that happen all the time.

Check the time stamp.


If anyone is trying to find me… Tamyuun on Instagram is probably the easiest.

Yeah... I know exactly where Hachinohe is..... was just being "......whatever". Also the intensity of that one is a 4 according to the scale.

マグニチュード6.4の地震は、北東部、日本で今日起こっ た。東京 - 日本のチャンネルNHKとして、微動はライジングサンの首 都に感じられた。津波警報が受信されました。今は - ない負傷者は少なくとも、報告されなかった。
I am able to give an opportunity to stay here, in my home, for any family from Japan that suffered from the disaster (earthquake): as long as they need it by themselves. I can speak and read Japanese (not fluently).

I really had to read this a few times to try to decipher what you tried to say, to no avail...

But I'll indulge you....

1. Do you have over $6000 to fly a family of 4 from Japan to Israel?
2. How about the over $6000 it would cost to fly them back?
3. Are you going to pay for the passport processing for them? They probably don't have a need for a passport on a usual basis.
4. Are you going to have them wait for visas too?
5. What are they going to do while they 'visit' you?
6. Can they work in Israel without papers?
7. Are you going to pay for all their meals?
8. What kind of medical facilities can they use?
9. What about schools?

And the list can go on and on and on....

So, have you woken up yet to from your naive, yet honorable, dream? Think about it.... you're not the only one who came here posting this 'idiotic' request. By the way, most people here aren't Japanese.

And wtf are you talking about "muslim" to me? Have I given you any indication I was muslim? Or are you perpetuating the hostility Israel has with its neighbors by making fun of them?

Grow up!
