Plenty of “our” people said Hurricane Katrina was a judgment upon the evil of New Orleans.

and as I posted the other day, a televangelist or two claimed 9/11 was retribution for our degeneracy...disgusting regardless of the source...

Given the general sinfulness of humans everywhere and at all times, it’s logically consistent to take the view that all disasters are aimed at clobbering us for being bad. (That is not my view, but it’s a defensible one.) However, the idea that bad things are always God punishing the people I don’t like is hard to defend.
