But unlike 9-11, none of the losses or damage will ever be recoverable from insurers. This is because this event is classified as: an ‘Act of G-d’.

Nowhere is the effacement of god themes more active and corrosive than in the world of academia. And yet it’s from British academics that we always see the strongest support for boycotts against Israel. There is nothing more unholy and hypocritical than their support of jihadists whose fanaticism is rooted in the suppression of personal liberty and all forms of enlightenment.

How fitting therefore that the Creator's wake-up call should be ‘middah keneged middah’; the biblical expression for 'measure for measure'. A mountain sneezed. Was that a man-made disaster? Did any of you geniuses predict that half the world would come to a standstill? That the best laid plans of tens of millions of people would come to nought? Even President Obama - who seems to think he is G-d - was robbed of his vital photo-op in Poland; one which he desperately needed to atone for his cowardly abandonment of their missile shield.
There is a simple distinction between them and us: what they call nature, we call creation. This has been an unusual event, by any standards. But recently there have been a great many earthquakes too – none of which any of these eggheads were able to predict. In fact, the only reliable predictors of earthquakes have been shown to be animals, by their erratic behaviour, hours and sometimes days prior to the event.
But then again – that’s only nature.
