Christians vs. Muslims

Interesting. The Christians said this happened to the Muslims and now the muslims said this happened because of the Christians in the area. Go figure.

Hat Tip to Opinion Journal at WSJ.com:

Fawzan Al-Fawzan, a professor at Saudi Arabia's Al-Imam University, is getting into the Christmas spirit, reports the Middle East Media Research Institute. Here's Al-Fawzan's explanation for the South Asian tsunami:
We know that at these resorts, which unfortunately exist in Islamic and other countries in South Asia, and especially at Christmas, fornication and sexual perversion of all kinds are rampant. The fact that it happened at this particular time is a sign from Allah. It happened at Christmas, when fornicators and corrupt people from all over the world come to commit fornication and sexual perversion. That's when this tragedy took place, striking them all and destroyed everything. It turned the land into wasteland, where only the cries of the ravens are heard. I say this is a great sign and punishment on which Muslims should reflect.
