| God is punishing US with financial crisis: Hamas |
| 2008-10-18 |
| The leader of the Palestinian group Hamas said on Friday that the global financial meltdown was God's way of punishing the United States for its support of Israel and its occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan. "We see it as God's punishment for the criminals. Nothing is more unjust than occupying an Islamic state. Nothing is more unjust than keeping the Palestinian people under occupation for over 60 years," Ismail Haniya told worshippers before Friday prayers in the Gaza Strip. "They deprived our people of money and now God has deprived them of money. They besieged our people and now they are besieged by the punishment of God," Haniya said. |

| #5 Greed and stupidity result in their own natural consequences. God merely allows it to happen just like all the crummy things the Paleostinians have brought upon themselves. Heh heh, usually, but I get bored sometimes. |
