When a hurricane, flood, tornado, or other earthquake hits - do we 'assign blame' in the same way? Yes, of course. Why isn't this whole event just considered a natural disaster? It is, but unexpected or rare events like "natural disasters" test our systems of emergency response. Disruption is likely in many cases, but if those systems fail it's important to understand why, and how our responses could be improved in the future.
