Earthquake and Tsunami Hit Indonesia - BREAKING NEWS
AP reports: “JAKARTA, Indonesia - A massive earthquake struck Indonesia on Wednesday, triggering a tsunami in the town of Padang and warnings for much of the Indian Ocean region, authorities said. The quake caused tall buildings to sway in a least four countries.”
A wave of up to nine feet was reported to have hit Padang about 20 minutes after the quake, said Suhardjono, an official with Indonesia’s meteorological agency, who goes by only one name.
Hopefully no lives have been lost and the damage is minimal.
But if Indonesia does turn to the world for “economic aid,” we don’t expect them to ask us. After all, why would they want our dirty money? We’re the bad guys.
Note: As the old saying goes, don’t burn bridges…
And that’s the point of this post. Not heartless. Just sayin’.

They won’t ask us the will just demand aid and expect us to know our place as being less than muslims. Haven’t you learned the new rules yet? If we don’t pay the money then we will be “punished”.
