It has been a deadly hajj this year.

I guess that's not too different from daily life in many Moslem states.

every year is a gauntlet run or something. So many people dying from just moving in a large crowd

At least they get their 72 virgins and whatever the segregated women get, which is what?

The head of the Central Hajj Committee, Prince Khaled al-Faisal, blamed the stampede on "some pilgrims from African nationalities," Saudi-owned al-Arabiya TV channel reported.

That's right ... Always blaming the black guy.

What? The Saudis are now blaming the Amish for the tragedy?

I’ll go with the obvious and note it is just yet another day in the death cult. Only difference this time is that authorities don’t need tweezers to pick up the faithful after a random bombing.

No doubt UASID is packing relief supplies already to send to these poor victims of “stampede violence”.

At least they get their 72 virgins...

IIRC, the virgins are for Jihadis who die killing Infidels...but I could be wrong.
