Has there ever been an attack on Mecca or the Vatican?

>>2746763
Yes, several.

>Mecca
Wasn't there a siege or something in the 70's? A terrorist group took over Mecca and laid siege for some time, pretty rare to hear it mentioned nowadays.

>>2746763
yes, to the point that the cube was destroyed and the pilgrims were massacred and their bodies were filled inside the Holy well

still didn't stop the Hajj

>>2746773
There was. It's one of the defining moments of Saudi Arabian history and a great contributor to slowing down its social modernization.

what's in his mouth

>>2746793
Some kind of drug probably. He is signaling how edgy and subversive he is.

>>2746793
Acid

>>2746782
Damn thats fucking cool

>>2746763
Mecca has been sacked like 7 times

>>2746763
Charles V sacked Rome because "Fuck the Pope."

>>2746782
Smart, claiming someone else to be the Mahdi not himself. I guess in his mind it would've been more legit.

>>2746763
I remember I read somewhere there was a protestant revolt attacking the vatican, 200 - 500 swiss guards helped defend the pope from what? 20,000 - 100, 000 protestant militias?

the Mahdi's name is the same as the prophets name (Muhammad ibn Abdullah) which is also what his brother in law's name, so he couldn't be the Mahdi since his name is Juhayman, he's not a smart criminal mastermind, he actually thought his brother in law was the destined Mahdi

Is that guy taking ecstasy at Mecca? Jesus christ the balls on him. He'll be torn apart by the crowd if they realize anyone isn't taking things seriously.

>>2746763
His head isn't shaved.

From what I've read and heard, Mecca is pretty comercialized now. Supposedly it doesn't "feel" all that holy once you are there.

>>2746763
Remember last year when all those people got trampled in Mecca?

>>2746763
/r/LSD is pretty chill but I hate every faggot that posts there.

Muslims sacked the Vatican a few times, 8th-10th centuries

>>2747931
It isn't commercialized in the same sense as Christmas or Easter in the West. Non-Muslims aren't even allowed inside the city, or Medina.

It is just shitty unless you are wealthy, and at that point I am not sure if you are actually very Muslim or not to begin with. And it is even worse during the Hajj season because we're talking about a whole lot of 3rd worlders hitting up the same place for an extended period of time.

Google "Hajji Mustafa" for something written by some autistic Brit that faked being Muslim to get into Mecca for the Hajj
