@lego What happened here? I was confused with if it meant animal stampede or something :air:

Also it's sad that some people here are cheering the deaths... no one wants to die early

 

"“The response [from Iranian officials] was based on unleashing anti-Arab sentiment that many Iranians bear. The horrible Mina incident has allowed Iranians to unload their anger onto Arabs,” he added.

Investigations to determine the cause behind the crush are still ongoing.

A report by Al Sharq Al Awsat newspaper claims 300 Iranian pilgrims were moving in the opposite direction against “large convoys” on Street 204 heading to the site where ritual of stoning the devil is performed before the crush happened.

Quoting an unnamed source, the paper claimed that the almost 300 pilgrims did not wait at the site upon completion of the ritual as mandated by Hajj organizers. The worshippers instead moved out onto Street 204 as other groups made their way into the site, the report, cited by Al Arabiya.Net said. "

I think this was not an accident. 300 Iranian pilgrims went in opposite direction (towards large convoy) despite organizers' rules. I feel like this was suppose to be some sort of revenge to Sunni Arabs for what is going on in Syria and Yemen. Iranian government and Hezbollah are supporting Houthi terrorists in Yemen. 

Whoever brought these 300 Iranians should not get visas ever again. But then there will be outrage from Iranian government. What a mess.

Do you want us to believe, that this terrible stampede was in fact a calculated "terror attack" by the Iranian Government?

No, I'm just thinking out loud. What could possibly make this group to disobey the general rules for safety?

Carelessness and naivety.
