Friends in time of need. Enemies rant.

The al-Qaida in Iraq group, led by Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, called the devastation across the U.S. Gulf Coast region God's retribution on America.

al-Zarqawi's group released an Internet statement saying "God's great wrath has hit the head of the oppressors where their dead are in thousands and their losses in billions."

Those terrorists have a way with words, don't they?

But looking towards the good, Kuwait is offering $500 million in aid which includes $400 million in oil products and $100 million in humanitarian relief.

"It's our duty as Kuwaitis to stand by our friends to lighten the humanitarian misery and as a pay back for the many situations during which Washington helped us through," Kuwait's energy minister, Sheik Ahmed Fahd Al Ahmed Al Sabah, said in a statement.

Nice.
