It's a very interesting story... The natives had this big mythology based on volcano gods, and the charismatic Imam responsible for that region, though no longer living there, spread the story that the eruption keyed into ancient prophecies that could be interpreted as a sudden need to expel the foreign overlords. Jihad ensued, predictably.

How can someone who obviously thinks so much of their ideas have so little respect for expressing them? How can someone who so yearns to be taken seriously make so little effort?!
