In reaction to Hurricane Katrina and the destruction in its wake, a high-ranking Kuwaiti official, Muhammad Yousef Al-Mlaifi, who is director of the Kuwaiti Ministry of Endowment's research center, published an article titled "The Terrorist Katrina is One of the Soldiers of Allah, But Not an Adherent of Al-Qaeda." [1] The article appeared August 31, 2005 in the Kuwaiti daily Al-Siyassa.
The following are excerpts from his article:
"The Terrorist Katrina is One of the Soldiers of Allah…" "…As I watched the horrible sights of this wondrous storm, I was reminded of the Hadith of the Messenger of Allah [in the compilations] of Al-Bukhari and Abu Daoud. The Hadith says: 'The wind is of the wind of Allah, it comes from mercy or for the sake of torment. When you see it, do not curse it, [but rather] ask Allah for the good that is in it, and ask Allah for shelter from its evil.' Afterwards, I was [also] reminded of the words of the Prophet Muhammad: 'Do not curse the wind, as it is the fruit of Allah's planning. He who curses something that should not be cursed – the curse will come back to him.'
"When the satellite channels reported on the scope of the terrifying destruction in America [caused by] this wind, I was reminded of the words of [Prophet Muhammad]: 'The wind sends torment to one group of people, and sends mercy to others.' I do not think – and only Allah [really] 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. Out of my absolute belief in the truth of the words of the Prophet Muhammad, this wind is the fruit of the planning [of Allah], as is stated in the text of the Hadith of the Prophet.
"But I began to ask myself: Doesn't this country [the U.S.] claim to aspire to establish justice, freedom, and equality amongst the people? Isn't this country claiming that everything it did in Afghanistan and Iraq was for truth and justice? How can it be that these American claims are untrue, when we see how good prevails in the streets of Afghanistan, and how it became an oasis of security with America's entrance there? How can these American claims in the matter of Iraq be untrue, when we see that Iraq has become the most tranquil and secure country in the world?
"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 have joined the Al-Qaeda terrorist organization?"
"The Disaster Will Keep Striking the Unbelievers for What They Have Done"
"How sad I am for America. Here it is, poor thing, trying with all its might to lower oil prices which have reached heights unprecedented in all history. Along with America's phenomenal efforts to lower the price of oil in order to salvage its declining economy and its currency – that is still falling due to the 'smart' policy America is implementing in the world – comes this storm, the fruit of Allah's planning, so that [the price of] a barrel of oil will increase further still. By Allah, this is not schadenfreude.
"Oh honored gentlemen, I began to read about these winds, and I was surprised to discover that the American websites that are translated [into Arabic] are talking about the fact that that the storm Katrina is the fifth equatorial storm to strike Florida this year… and that a large part of the U.S. is subject every year to many storms that extract [a price of] dead, and completely destroy property. I said, Allah be praised, until when will these successive catastrophes strike them?
"But before I went to sleep, I opened the Koran and began to read in Surat Al-R'ad ['The Thunder' chapter], and stopped at these words [of Allah]: 'The disaster will keep striking the unbelievers for what they have done, or it will strike areas close to their territory, until the promise of Allah comes to pass, for, verily, Allah will not fail in His promise. ' [Koran 13:31]."

If you'd like to be on or off this middle east/political ping list, please FR mail me.
Glad to see he's so grateful to the ones who saved his sorry hide back in the day.
If there is any difference between Islam and devil-worship, it escapes me.
Just the name. Allah is a demon prince fo sho.
I want to hear U.S. reaction to this and what some the other officials in Kuwait have to say. Some of our supposed allied Muslim countries are sure feeling their oats, now that Saddam's gone.
What did this retard say when Allah sent the tsunami to smite 200,000 Muslims?
I really hate these mutts.
And what was the tsunami to the muslim world? Idiots.
"Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!" Isaiah 5:20
and that is "thank you" from Kuwaiti for liberating them from Saddam by "infidels"?
Maybe time to go back, vaporize the muSlimes and all the oil bases are belong to US. Time to put end to this new "nice" world order, look after our own interests and let the scumbags take care of their hines.
With the recent display of "patriotism" by RATs here, time to start cleanup at home, ENOUGH!!!!
I'm not sure that this is public information, but I didn't see the "Ultra-TOP SECRET, Eyes Only" stamp on it. I believe "Hadith" is also the code name for the nuke project that will take out Mecca, Medina and three other pagan locations, if called for.
Islam is such a complicated religion, isn't it?
These "mutts" were saved by American troops (some 300 of whom died) and American dollars with the expulsion of Saddam and his army from Kuwait in 1991. Really has a lot of appreciation for saving his sorry tail, doesn't he?
I hope these crazys remember if we ever can't send troops, we can still send bombs.
Sounds French to me
LOL, please see my post #13. GMTA... ;)
Ann Coulter was actually right.
Someone remind this AH that there could be a next time.

Yeah, and Saddam running roughshod over your country was just a fraternity prank, you thankless b*stard!
Don't these Islamite loonies realize that if Allah was capable of such destruction, he wouldn't be paying them 72 virgins for blowing them selves up to murder a few dozen innocents?
"Oh, that doesn't count."
These guys have their heads up their butts farthers than your typical liberal.
schadenfreude \SHAHD-n-froy-duh\, noun: A malicious satisfaction in the misfortunes of others. For heavens sake if you are going to insult us don't use such BIG words.
Eff yourself, raghead...
This isn't a good time to be pissing us off with your sh*t.
yup , oh so very brave of them to mouth-off now , "hey muzzie POS,don't stop runnin' yer yap!!"
As I stated in another post it is a prerequisite for Muslim leaders to be insane.
I'm starting to hate the peaceful ones also.
Isn't that the truth, back in 1991 Kuwaitis were looking for American butts to kiss for rescuing them from their Iraqi Muslim brethen.
And what was the tsunami to the muslim world? Idiots.
Remember when the muslim-rich countries turned back vessels loaded with relief stuff that were flying under the Israeli flag?
Kuwait has always been a sitting duck. Next time, we can say 'Stuff It'
Or sell it off to Cuba.
Tancredo/Coulter '08
These are the scum we spent blood and treasure rescuing from Saddam in Gulf War I. Another mistake by #41.
Yeah, watch out for the quiet ones, too. Part of their religion is to be peaceful when they are in the minority, but when they have larger numbers they take over and the 'infidels' become dead or 'dhimmies'. "We are the religion of peace, but convert or die, infidel scum."
She usually is.
That wasn't a mistake, Sadaam astride Kuwait and Saudi Arabia was a clear threat. Cashing their checks and calling everything even was a mistake. We should have clear, though perhaps unofficial, understandings with the Saudis, Kuwaitis, et al as to the limits of price increases.
Stinking ingrate of an ally imho.
We owe you nutting Mud-Hammed, but you owe the USA your collective ASS!!!
Hey, why don't we just take this opportunity to throw them all out of our country right now, and the newly-homeless people in New Orleans can just move right into their homes and apartments..............
The irony of your statement would be amusing if it wasn't so appalling...
When you open a can worms for dinner...don't complain when your vittles taste like worms...
I already know I am going to be misinterpreted...
Works for me.
My guess he sat the Gulf War out in Monaco or Las Vegas.
Its a cult.
What's wrong with MEMRI? I've never heard anything to discredit them. Please let me know.
i feel a little like calling bull crap on this one. this is SO outlandish it sounds like someone at the onion wrote it
