Blame the women - why not when you're stuck in the 8th century.

Gotta love this story. Nothing like compassion and tolerance after a disaster:
"Fatimah Syam, of Indonesian Women for Legal Justice, tells Meo that a 'control team' of sharia enforcers 'seeks out women without headscarves or unmarried girls meeting boys in private and parades them through the streets in an open car.' 'I've seen the police laughing and boasting, and the girls in tears,' she explains. '[They] say the tsunami happened because women ignored religion. We never heard of this parading before the tsunami.'"
