They would be dancing in the streets claiming that allah was fighting for them against the great satan.
I think Europeans saw them on tv but we Americans were "spared". Real reason: they didn't want us to get angry.

I don't pretend to know all there is to know about disasters like this and 9/11. But I do know God is on The Throne and the devil is on the prowl, seeking whom he may devour. 1 Peter 5:8.
The Scriptures also say that the thief comes only to steal, kill and destroy. John 10:10 But Jesus says, He came that we might have life, and that, more abundantly.
Satan (the devil) is THE thief.
Our blaming God for evil does no good to any one. Reading the Scriptures though, gives inner strength and peace, and a confidence in His love.
This is what we have to cling to.
Just know that we as humans, are but a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away. James 4:14 & Heb. 9:27
We are here.........................then we aren't.
I pray for the people to be comforted.
God Bless us all.
As kids we did the "dead man's float". Face down and very still for as long as you held your breath.
BTW (and excuse the blunt language) but if disposal is delayed much longer those bodies will fall apart when moved.
This is the saddest picture of all the pics I have seen...does anybody know where exactly it was at?
From "Worldreligions.co.uk/islam.htm ...
"...Islam`s most sacred sites are Mecca and Medina on the Red Sea coast of Saudi Arabia, Jerusalem, from where belief holds the Prophet made his miraculous night journey into Heaven, Karbala in present-day Iraq, and Bandeh Aceh in Sumatra..."
WOWZERS
Oh my God ping.
Thanks for this. Until I saw the side by side photos as you displayed them, I could never really tell what I was looking at. Amazing the difference.
"I don't pretend to know all there is to know about disasters like this and 9/11."
Same here. But 9/11 wasn't a "natural" disaster and there were real, very evil people we could blame. You'd think since this current disaster occurred naturally, everyone would be satisfied with just blaming mother nature but some have to make the leap into blaming our God of Life. I'll never understand why bad things happen to good people - but I can live with that fact even though it's terribly hard sometimes.

Or the island sank?
I am serious, it look's like someone dropped nuclear bombs on those areas.
Wow!
