At least 717 people taking part in the Hajj pilgrimage have been killed in a stampede near the Islamic holy city of Mecca, officials in Saudi Arabia say.

Hundreds of people were injured in the incident at Mina, which occurred as two million pilgrims were taking part in the Hajj’s last major rite.
They converge on Mina to throw stones at pillars representing the devil. Preparations for the Hajj were marred when a crane collapsed at Mecca’s Grand Mosque this month, killing 109 people.
The Saudi civil defence directorate said on Twitter that 4,000 personnel had been sent to the scene of Thursday’s stampede, along with more than 220 emergency and rescue units. The injured are being taken to four hospitals in the area.

My comment:
The BBC calls Mecca a “holy city”. When the editor’s do this, they present Islam as a true religion.
Why do the British National broadcaster do this?
What made this city “holy” for the more than 700 dead Muslims?
Would it no be more correct to brand the city of Mecca as the devil’s nest?
Do all Muslims understand that they are invited to Mecca to worship a “holy stone” who is suppose toabsorb their sins?
Plese read this link:
Isaiah 5: 20
Woe to those who call evil good
and good evil,
who put darkness for light
and light for darkness,
who put bitter for sweet
and sweet for bitter.
When Western media elevate the city of Mecca, we surrender to Islamic ideology. It is a sin, and it is shameful. The religion of Islam reject that God has a begotten Son. Muhammad’s message to the World is that Jesus the Messiah was a liar. The Jewish leadership was correct in rejecting the divinity of Jesus of Nazareth.
Shame on the BBC. The broadcaster is a part of the massive dhimmi campaign in post-Christian Europe.

The word “holy” is used so easily by many. Do they actually understand what it means? One can on look on in horror.
You people are fools to believe that any of that crap is real. Look at the pictures of this fake event, those people are not trampled to death, people need to open their eyes and turn off the ears, ALL of these news events are totally contribed nonsense, don’t buy satans lies.
Dear Richard.
Shalom, and love in Jesus.

Since you seems to have some hidden insight on what took place in Mecca, please enlighten us. How did these 700 pluss people die?
