Anti-US bloggers hail Katrina
HURRICANE Katrina has incited a storm of enthusiasm among Islamist bloggers who claim the destruction was sent by God to torment the American empire.

"Katrina, a soldier sent by God to fight on our side... the soldier Katrina joins us to fight against America," said one Islamist web site. Another said: "Allahu akbar (God is greatest). Soldiers of God, Hurricane Katrina demolishes America. Don't think that God doesn't care about the injustices of tyrants."

"I do not think -- and only Allah knows -- that this wind, which completely wiped out American cities in these days, is a wind of mercy and blessing. It is almost certain that this is a wind of torment and evil that Allah has sent to this American empire," he said in the daily Al-Siyassa.

"But how strange it is that after all the tremendous American achievements for the sake of humanity, these mighty winds come and evilly rip (America's) cities to shreds? Have the storms joined the Al-Qaeda terrorist organization?"

12. They are the Religious Right of other countries
Just as crazy and repressive as the made-in-the-USA kind, and all made of the same materials.

7. Well, if we needed confirmation of Bush collaboration with terrorists...
this is it. Both Bush and the Terrorists wanted Katrina to kill Americans.

11. As far as I'm concerned...
The Religious Right and the terrorists can go rot in hell together. Just hope they don't expect the rest of us to come along for the trip!

9. I agree with the terrorists- Bush and cronies allowed this to happen.
And the one place where things all come together, is the terrorists alliance with Bush company.

They're all part of the same game, and are all racists. :mad:

14. Creepy words, but it sucks...
that so many in other parts of the world might think that we all support Chimpy McDoucheFuck.

When it's pretty evident that a vast majority now do not.

36% approval ratings do not an adoring nation make.

16. They're just as sick as every American
who has been busy blaming the victims for being too poor to be able to evacuate. They're just as sick as every American who is secretly enjoying this.

Two sides of the very same coin. Sickness is sickness, ugliness is ugliness.

17. Islamic terrorists, Christian terrorists. It's all the same.
Rev. Bill Shanks, pastor of New Covenant Fellowship of New Orleans, also sees God's mercy in the aftermath of Katrina -- but in a different way. Shanks says the hurricane has wiped out much of the rampant sin common to the city.

The pastor explains that for years he has warned people that unless Christians in New Orleans took a strong stand against such things as local abortion clinics, the yearly Mardi Gras celebrations, and the annual event known as "Southern Decadence" -- an annual six-day "gay pride" event scheduled to be hosted by the city this week -- God's judgment would be felt.

“New Orleans now is abortion free. New Orleans now is Mardi Gras free. New Orleans now is free of Southern Decadence and the sodomites, the witchcraft workers, false religion -- it's free of all of those things now," Shanks says. "God simply, I believe, in His mercy purged all of that stuff out of there -- and now we're going to start over again."

20. Thanks much, Zen
for posting this. Saves me from hunting and pecking aroiund looking for the link.

I guess this puts Shanks in the Fred Phelps class of Assclownery.

23. New Orleans to Rev. Skanks...
You're going to "start over again" and rebuild our city as a Fundie paradise?

Thanks, but we'd rather drown.

Sincerely,

New Orleans

21. So why spend time trying to reactivate fear and hatred of "our" "enemies?"
We have more than enough to think about right here and now.

If right-wing phychopaths keep control of this country we're going to have far more "enemies" than we do now.

22. If allah is going to send his wrath...
Why the fuck would he do it in an area of impoverished, apolitical, and innocent people who are very far detatched with the people who run the country and make the actual decisions you dumbfucks.
