Mobile Disaster in Perspective

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/4126971.stm

25 December was supposedly the 'day of birth' of the Indo-Persian Sun-God Mithra (at least as celebrated in that area) for more than 1,000 years before it was ‘co-opted’ less than 2,000 years ago as Christmas day by the then 'new' Roman Church for their ‘new’ idol. Of course their current ‘fans’ are usually unaware of that and call Mithra’s worshippers derogatorily as ‘pagans’. In historic term, it was just a ‘new dog old trick’ thing.

This year, a few hours after that day, a massive quake the size of 9 on the Richter scale caused massive destruction & death around the Bay of Bengal.

US President George W Bush (my favorite 21st century idiot) offered aid to affected nations and expressed sorrow for the "terrible loss of life and suffering". To see if he is really sincere, I’ll like to see if Haliburton rushes to help ‘re-construct’ the affected places. If 10,000 dead is a ‘terrible loss of life & suffering’ to even a Bush-like idiot, we can imagine what they think of themselves once we make the following comparison:

Death toll from the biggest quake in the last 40 years: upwards of 10,000

Death toll in Iraq involving the most 'powerful' nation in the last 40 years: upwards of 200,000 (from the last 2 ‘outings’).

Any difficulty seeing why those Bush-like idiots are so arrogant? They think they can out-whack Nature and thus deserve a place almost on par with the Gods. Perhaps they accept to be a tad lower only because they compare their actions to that in the story of 'Nolah'.

To me they are all disasters of Nature except that some of them walk on legs and are mobile disaster generating machines. What great 'creations' those Bush-like idiots!
