Pakistani cleric 'claims women who wear jeans cause earthquakes and terrorism'

Will someone get this guy and Pat Robertson a room? Preferably with padded walls.

http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/581842/Maulana-Fazlur-Rehman-Pakistan-cleric-politician-jeans-earthquakes-odd-weird-news

Politician Maulana Fazlur Rehman allegedly commanded the military to take action on "immodest women", who he blamed for recent terror attacks.

Ulema-e-Islami Fazi leader Rehman also said that women who wear jeans are responsible for rising inflation and other disasters, according to reports.

"As brother Ansar Abbasi has so eloquently put in the past: TTP's suicide bombings are just Allah's wrath upon us.

"And so there is a need to earmark and eliminate the real enemy of Pakistan: every woman who wears jeans."

no matter which country they're in or which god or gods they blame.

Hating half the human race is pathological. Had psychiatry not been male dominated for so long, perhaps it would be in the DSM and we'd have a treatment for it.

Naked tourists blamed for deadly Malaysian earthquake

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia — The death toll from an earthquake that trapped scores of climbers on Malaysia’s highest peak rose to 16 Monday as rescuers searched for two Singaporean climbers still missing.

Sabah Deputy Chief Minister Joseph Pairin Kitingan blamed the tragedy on a group of 10 foreigners who “showed disrespect to the sacred mountain” by posing naked at the peak last week.

A magnitude-5.9 earthquake on Friday sent rocks and boulders raining down the trekking routes on 13,435-foot Mount Kinabalu in eastern Sabah state on Borneo island.

Ulema-e-Islami Fazi leader Rehman is clearly an unfortunate victim of my size 6 retro Carravicci's.

His next symptom will be foaming at the mouth while continuing to babble angry religious nonsense.
