Mecca Crane Collapse "An Act Of God" Says Engineer. by parisbookaddict(f): 7:38pm On Sep 12, 2015

Why always muslims.

Mecca crane collapse `act of God`: Engineer
Mecca: The collapse of a construction crane that killed 107 people at Mecca`s Grand Mosque was "an act of God" and not due to a technical fault, an engineer for the developer said Saturday.
The massive red and white crane, which crashed into the court of the mosque during a rainstorm and high winds Friday, also injured around 200 people.
The engineer for Saudi Binladin Group, which is carrying out a massive expansion of the mosque, told AFP the crane, like many others on the project, had been there for three or four years without any problem.
"It was not a technical issue at all," said the engineer, who asked not to be identified.
"I can only say that what happened was beyond the power of humans. It was an act of God and, to my knowledge, there was no human fault in it at all."
Authorities are investigating the tragedy, which occurred as hundreds of thousands of Muslims from around the world were gathering for the annual hajj pilgrimage.
The engineer said the crane was the main one used on work to expand the tawaf, or circumambulation area around the Kaaba -- a massive cubed structure at the centre of the mosque that is a focal point of worship.
"It has been installed in a way so as not to affect the hundreds of thousands of worshippers in the area and in an extremely professional way," he said.
"This is the most difficult place to work in, due to the huge numbers of people in the area."
The crane`s heavy hook, which is able to lift hundreds of tonnes, began swaying and moved the whole crane with it, toppling into the mosque, the engineer explained.
A witness said the accident occurred during winds which were so strong they shook his car and tossed billboards around.
The development project is expanding the area of the Grand Mosque by 400,000 square metres (4.3 million square feet), allowing it to accommodate up to 2.2 million people at once.

It is not an act of God, but an act of allahh. To the brainwashed muslims, it is said that anyone that dies in mecca is going to the al-janna straight.

The saudis will be laughing at the foolishness and the ignorance of the entire muslim world.

Muslims are so gullible. The families won't dare sue the binladen company nor the Saudi government . After all their believe is that the dead folks are now with their virgins.

Tartar9 is the engineer not a muslim. Isn't he not just trying to pass the blame to allah and avoid fines, muslim bloodmoney and possibly jail time or beheading.

If your religion doesn't permit forgiveness we understand. What if the engineer say so? This is islam, moreover, The king Salman says they'll investigate n inform the citizens about wat really caused it, but luckily u fail to c it in the news. Is it that you believe Muslims believe they're with their virgins OR you're jealous because you're not a virgin?

U pretend like u don't know why. Do u know how many times sex slaves, virgin houris (paradise sex slaves), mohammeds seX exploits with his wives and war captives, permission to have sex with captives, etc are mentioned in ur quran and hadiths.

Go and read ur quran and hadiths and see all the nasty sex oriented commands by moharmad contained in it. That's what the Taliban, ISIS, BH etc kidnap little girls and ur imams molest children so often.

Dis engineer must av bn brainwashed n obviously he's a terrorist. An act if God he said? As a civil engineer myself I think dis guy shud b prosecuted, fined n jailed for compromising safety. Au can u b doin construction wen multitudes are wandering. Some yrs ago, I came across a statistics dat says "construction workers are 3times likely to b killed n twice to b injured dan any oda workplace" cos of machines n equipment dat moves in frenzy. If pple doin d work are at risk, au much more d "ignorant" pple. Its unfortunate "common sense" is not common.
