   Well, this blames America very directly, Bush indirectly.

   I thought the above was a parody news service like the Onion, but no, it, and this Kuwaiti, are for real. Read the full text from the site, but here’s a synopsis:

   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.”

   excerpt: “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?”

   Ministry of Endowment research center? So he walks around the kingdom all day with a ruler, measuring packages? And these are fine words for a man whose country was saved by W’s father.
