I remember when northern Pakistan was hit by severe earthquake that some preachers raised their voices
"Allah is punishing the Pakistanis"
So did some tele-evangalists here for the Haiti disaster. The same spirit affects these preachers.
I am not saying they are totally wrong but the disasters happen from God's will. However the question of "punishment" remains open as it is not always for punishment that disasters affect the humanity. Let us say that all Tsunamis, earthquakes floods etc and man-made disasters like wars and killing with destruction of cities after cities for greed and producing huge refugee misery are not God's "punishments" but from other reasons known only to the All-Knowing Almighty
That does not mean that such disasters, 'natural' or man-made, should not teach us a lesson for they always do and we as human beings are always forgetful. The II WW with huge destruction/desolation of European countries and mega problems of refugees coupled with cold/snowy weathers taught a 'lesson' to them and they sat down to review "The league of Nations" and 'promised' never to get so destructive. "We will prevent wars" and a charter of UNITED NATIONS was carried out. Yet we saw destruction of Iraq, Kuwait, Afghanistan all on flimsy reasons; wars were declared with obvious cheating, the purpose was the same as that of Changez Khan or Alexander the Great. Halakoo Khan and Bush-Cheyney duo. Results were much desolation extirpation and human misery that these countries are going to take a century or more to recover anything.
So did we learn anything from horrible war-machines?

Saugoree means I was born or I hail from Saugor This is the way they spelt the name of that city of my birth during British days of India.
