Another Catastrophic Hajj Occurs

Tweet

The end result again of one of The most important religious festivals, for those who go there to celebrate, has once more ended in disaster, this year around 800 dead and many more wounded. These tragic events seem to happen every year, to a greater or lesser degree, and have become something of an expected norm, even though the 'Host' country has supposedly put stronger safety measures in place. In fairness, such an overwhelming mass of people, all descending on the same place, at the same time, has to be the stuff of nightmares, for the places involved,yet whatever mishaps and tragedies happen, the followers continue to come, regardless. So is there an answer to this huge problem, other than banning such a huge religious festival to make it safer?....or will it continue as a sad fact of life, just as now.
