You might remember Rabbi Yehuda Levin from his statement earlier this year that repealing Don't Ask, Don't Tell was the "equivalent of the spiritual rape of our military" and would cause untold natural disasters because "homosexuality is a spiritual cause of earthquakes."
Well, today he is back with another warning that letting gays serve openly will cause the US to lose wars because God will "repel [HIS] Divine Grace from our military's struggles, and beyond":
Why Religious Right Watch isn't merely Christian Right Watch. Religio-conservatives can organize to shape government policy regardless of which religion--or their interpretation of it anyway--encourages them to do so.
This "gays cause earthquakes" argument has been used as a tool of scapegoating for centuries. It was raised in Israel in 2008, too. See also this article.
