I got bad news for you Atlas: Barely anyone in the West wants to pray for those "brown people". Nobody prayed for Lebanon, Iraq or Turkey. It just got treated as another day in "uncivilized brown land". It didn't get as much media attention as a result.
Yes, it's very sad that this double standard exists. If I was religious I would. Europe is not like the United States where the majority of Christians are Fascists, so I'd like to think I'd not be too brainwashed (if I had no left religion) to not pray for these people.
The thing that gets me though, is everyone is praying for contradictory outcomes. al-Saud's henchmen are probably praying to their deity right now to punish the people of Turkey for being so secular minded and having all these skimpy Westerners invade Turkey's beaches. In war, both sides pray for victory.
