Until the advent of materialism and 19th c. dogma, Western Civilisation was superior to anything Islam had developed. Islam has not aided in the development of the modern world; in fact civilisation has only been created in spite of Islam. Proof of this resides in the 'modern' world and the unending political-economic and spiritual poverty of Muslim states and regions. Squatting on richer civilisations is not 'progress'. Islam is pagan, totalitarian, and irrational.
Hundreds of Moslems in the 2015 ritual of oblation to the moon deity [Al Lah] and Muhammad [Al Lah, or the Lord] found themselves dead, beaten, robbed, raped or assaulted. It is a fitting if sordid derivative of an enforced tribute to Mecca, and Muhammad, a city he conquered at the head of a 10.000 man army – which immediately makes him a man of peace for Western academics and 'experts'. Muhammad's return to Mecca is matched only in importance by the great man Obamed and his journey from Chicago to Washington. Muhammad smashed all other idols, keeping only Baal the Al Lah of Mecca as the symbol of 'God', or himself. Obamed smashed the American Constitution and 200 years of history, in his attempt at National Socialist tyranny.
Sura 22 or the Pilgrimage, is a chapter dedicated to Muhammad's seminal event – the takeover of Mecca. It contains of course the usual multi-culti bromides of love and fellowship such as 22:39: “Permission to fight is given to those (i.e. believers against disbelievers), who are fighting them, (and) because they (believers) have been wronged, and surely, Allah is Able to give them (believers) victory.” Or, 022:017 URL “Verily, those who believe (in Allah and in His Messenger Muhammad SAW), and those who are Jews, and the Sabians, and the Christians, and the Magians, and those who worship others besides Allah, truly, Allah will judge between them on the Day of Resurrection. Verily! Allah is Witness over all things.” Such benign tolerance, infallible flexibility and acceptance.
The Hajj is a duty, one of the 6 pillars of Submission, issued by the moon deity through his military commander Muhammad, incumbent on all cult followers. It enriches Mecca. It impoverishes the assets and minds of the cult's devotees. It signifies Meccan-Arab imperialism. All Moslems must worship Mecca and its Kabaa shrine of Al-Lah, or the Lord of Mecca, who was of course Baal, the moon deity. There is nothing in the modern world which is so primitive, so ridiculous, as Moslems from non Arab countries paying homage to Arab fascism.

And proclaim to mankind the Hajj (pilgrimage). They will come to you on foot and on every lean camel, they will come from every deep and distant (wide) mountain highway (to perform Hajj). |

Then let them complete the prescribed duties (Manasik of Hajj) for them, and perform their vows, and circumambulate the Ancient House (the Ka'bah at Makkah). |
If you don't participate in this pagan festival at least once in your Moslem life, you are damned. You have no choice but to make the trip. Hitler had planned similar decrees for the promised Nazi shrine at Linz. Moslems seem blissfully unaware of the similarities between Muhammadism and Hitlerism.
Jews and Christians are of course cursed in this Sura, though the MSM and quackademics, who have never read the Koran, would have no idea about this:
022:025 URL Verily! Those who disbelieve and hinder (men) from the Path of Allah, and from Al-Masjid-al-Haram (at Makkah) which We have made (open) to (all) men, the dweller in it and the visitor from the country are equal there [as regards its sanctity and pilgrimage (Hajj and 'Umrah)]. And whoever inclines to evil actions therein or to do wrong (i.e. practise polytheism and leave Islamic Monotheism), him We shall cause to taste a painful torment.
022:053 URL That He (Allah) may make what is thrown in by Shaitan (Satan) a trial for those in whose hearts is a disease (of hypocrisy and disbelief) and whose hearts are hardened. And certainly, the Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doers, etc.) are in an opposition far-off (from the truth against Allah's Messenger and the believers).
Perhaps Western politicians might want to read the above and many other verses from this Sura and become acquainted with the 'real Islam', before sounding off like morons, with grade 5 platitudes about Islam representing blue skies and butterflies. In any event the Hajj is simply another Bronze age artifact which tells the sentient and the alert, everything they need to know about the moon cult of Mecca.
