A charity event for Ramadan
Whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth.
At least 78 people have been killed in a crush at a school in Yemen’s rebel-held capital, Sanaa, during a charity event for Ramadan, officials say.
…
Poor people made their way to the Maeen School in central Sanaa on Wednesday night after being told that a local merchant would be handing out zakat (alms) to mark the end of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan.
The head of the Houthis’ Supreme Revolutionary Council, Mohammed Ali al-Houthi, posted a photo on Twitter apparently showing hundreds of people queuing outside the school before the crush.
…
A health ministry official said women and children were among the 78 people killed in the crush.
Another 77 people were injured, according to the ministry. Thirteen were in a critical condition in hospital on Thursday, while the rest were discharged after receiving treatment, it added.
Why doesn’t a benevolent god step in to avert this kind of thing?
Allah is Sunni dontcha know? These are heretics!
BBC has deets on how it went down
It angers me to think of the senseless loss of life for the fictional benefit of a non-existent god.
It angers me also that so many of the faithful will be thanking that same non-existent god that some people survived.
