Destroying mecca would not just bring down the sunni - it would destroy the entire islamic belief system.

Maybe not.
Check this:

One headline sums it up: “The Alternative To Hajj: Muslims To Arafat And Iranians To Karbala. Does Iran Seek A Sectarian Divide To Replace Mecca?”

Persians and Turks hate each both on a religious Sinn/Sian and on an ethnic basis - barbarian Turk vs ancient culture Persian.

The rest of Islam will rally around the strong horse to keep their families, friends and themselves from being slaughtered.

I watched the video that the Guardian had on Mecca, and it opened with a line that said “Non-Muslims are forbidden to visit Mecca...”

I thought about that for awhile.

Can you IMAGINE the stink the media, democrats and SJWs would raise if the Pope said non-Catholics are forbidden from visiting the Vatican?

How about if the Germans said non-Lutherans can’t visit Wittenberg?

Or Mormons forbidding non-Mormon’s from Salt Lake City?

Yet they abide by any discrimination by Muslims—even defending their most barbaric practices ( female circumcision*).

While every Western religion is forced to diversify and bend it’s beliefs, especially on things like homosexuality and killing the unborn, and if not called temples of “hate”, the Muslims are allowed to practice the same old even worse discrimination and true hatred.

The Left are such hypocrites!

*Female genital mutilation usually involves the removal of the clitoris and other parts of female genitalia. Those who practice it say it tames a girl’s sexual desire and maintains her honor. It is practiced mainly by Muslims, and is deeply rooted in the Nile Valley region and parts of sub-Saharan African, and is also done in Yemen and Oman.

-—revering a God omnipresent in the city of Mecca.——

I’m a white christian male and we are not allowed to be offended...but...

But capitizing the “G” in God offends me...when referring to Islam...
