'The Terrorist Katrina'
NY Sun ^ | Sept. 2, 2005 | Editorial Writer

Posted on 09/02/2005 5:19:38 AM PDT by conservativecorner

"The Terrorist Katrina Is One of the Soldiers of Allah" is one of the reactions to the hurricane that has ravaged our Gulf Coast. It is the title of an article by one Muhammad Yousef Al-Mlaifi, director of the research center at Kuwait's Ministry of Endowment. His article has been translated and posted on the Internet by the Middle East Media Research Institute. Mr. Al-Mlaifi reckons Katrina is "not an adherent of Al-Qaeda" but is upset with America for its unbelievers.

Well, it's just one of the galling comments to emerge on the Web as Congress races back into session to deal with the catastrophe. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. rushed out a comment blaming the Republican governor of Mississippi, Haley Barbour, for "the central role" Mr. Kennedy reckons he played in "derailing the Kyoto Protocol" and putting the kibosh "on President Bush's ironclad campaign promise" to regulate carbon dioxide.

Mr. Kennedy has been joined to at least some degree by a small chorus, as columnist James Glassman has noted. The choir includes Ross Gelbspan (who wrote in the Boston Globe that although this storm was called Katrina, "its real name was global warming"), a scientific adviser to the British government, Sir David King (who told the Independent of London that "global warming may be responsible for the devastation reaped by Hurricane Katrina"), and the German environment minister, Juergen Tritten (who wrote in the Frankfurter Rundschau that "by neglecting environmental protection, America's president shuts his eyes to the economic and human damage that natural catastrophes like Katrina inflict on his country and the world's economy").

I think the vast majority of Americans will recognize these hyenas for what they are, and turn on them with righteous fury.

Statements like that make me thankful and proud to be an "infidel"

Combination of inbreeding, no education (1/3 of the middle-east can't read or write), and a religion that promotes violence and imperialism.

Yeah, why would they call the storm a terrorist? Maybe an insurgent or a freedom fighter but certainly not a terrorist!

Expect the MSM to correct their mistake in a couple of hours and fix the translation to reflect their ideology(the MSM I mean).

Well, if Allah wants mostly inner city blacks dead, then yeah, I guess Katrina's on His side.

This is just more proof of how smart those people are. A bunch of people who should be in white coats other than white sheets.
