Fury as Saudi's hajj chief blames African pilgrims for stampede (Race Card!)
Daily Mail ^ | 09/26/2015

The head of the committee which oversees the hajj pilgrimage has sparked outrage by blaming pilgrims of 'African nationalities' for the stampede which killed more than 700 people. In what was the worst disaster in a quarter-century to strike the annual event, 769 people died two days ago when the stampede broke out in Mina, about three miles from Mecca, during the symbolic stoning of the devil ritual. The inflammatory comments come as authorities were heavily criticised for a perceived lapse in safety measures at what is one of the world's largest pilgrimages.

Are you calling a spade a spade?

Never understood why Blacks gravitate to Islam and despise America.

And beyond the miserable Arabs, look to your fellow brothers who sold you down the river.

I do not like crowd or group think.
I hate mass hysteria and have seen it many times.

I dont get it.

As a general I would note what drives them

“Saudi’s hajj chief is about to become the target of all manner of accusations of RACCESSNESS....and ...they may be called for in this instance.”

That only applies to white people of European descent. Other ethnicities and cultures cannot be racist.

Exactly. Every pilgrim should be taught to say that before they leave for mecca: ‘on this hajj I will die in a stampede, Inshallah.’

Don’t forget that it’s also glorious honor to die in Mecca.

Saudi Arabia only officially stopped slavery of blacks in the 1940’s. And there used to be slave markets for their sale around Mecca, because that is how many black Mohammedans financed their pilgrimage from Africa to the cube, by selling other blacks, sometimes including their own children.

Yeah. They were rejoicing on Twitter when the crane collapsed about how lucky the pilgrims were for dying on a Friday during the hajj in Mecca in front of that magic cube.

Whatever. Savages.
