The Hajj: Terrorism Potential Abounds



By Fred Burton and Scott Stewart



Courtesy of Strategic Forecasting


More than 2 million Muslims from around the world are expected to travel to Saudi Arabia to perform the Hajj, that annual pilgrimage to Mecca that runs this year Dec. 18-21.


Because of the history of violence during the Hajj — some of it extreme — Saudi officials step up security during the period, and last week they concluded what they called the country’s largest-ever anti-terrorism security sweep — an operation that resulted in the arrest of more than 200 suspected al Qaeda militants. Riyadh said the operation was intended as a warning to militants who would seek to abuse the event and disturb the pilgrims. Because of past debacles during the Hajj, the Saudi government nowadays can be expected to deal with any militant activity quickly and harshly.

Ask The Imam - Jihad Is Better Than Hajj... Moderate islam will never condemn terrorism, because terrorism is moderate islam. Reality Bytes December 9th, 2007 at 2:37 pm. Let’s be clear here - Hajj is the poll tax we the infidels pay to Islam for its “protection” so since we are inferior to the Muslim, there is nothing we can do that would be as good as what they do, which is there Jihad. I think I’ll watch Planet of The Apes again tonight.
