AP – Pilgrims attending the hajj walk on flooded streets during heavy rains in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, Wednesday, …
By HADEEL AL-SHALCHI, Associated Press Writer – 30 mins ago
JIDDAH, Saudi Arabia – Muslim pilgrims circled Islam's holiest site Wednesday in their traditional white robes, with a few additions — umbrellas and face masks — as the opening of the annual hajj was complicated by torrential rains and fears of swine flu.
Saudi authorities have been planning ways for months to inhibit the spread of swine flu during the pilgrimage, which is seen as an incubator for the virus. The four-day event is one of the most crowded in the world, with more than 3 million people from every corner of the globe packed shoulder to shoulder in prayers and rites.
Now they are scrambling to deal with sudden, unexpected downpours that could worsen one of the gathering's perennial dangers: deadly stampedes.
In 2006, all it took was a dropped piece of luggage to trip up a crowd and cause a pileup that killed more than 360 people at one of the holy sites. The rains also could cause flash floods or mudslides in the desert mountains where most of the rites take place.
On Wednesday, the only fallout from the rains were epic traffic jams, flooded tents and washed out streets as the faithful tried to make their way to the Kaaba in Mecca. To kick off the hajj, Muslims circle seven times around the cube-shaped shrine draped in black cloth.
At times, crowds of men and women under umbrellas, some wearing surgical masks against the flu, circled in the courtyard of the mosque surrounding the shrine. But at other times during the day, the site was nearly empty, as were the surrounding streets, which would typically be jammed on the hajj's opening day.
Many travelers were struggling just to get to the site. Floods closed down part of the main road to Mecca from the Red Sea coastal city of Jiddah — the entry point into the country for most of the faithful. As a result, cars were backed up as far as 20 miles, nearly half the highway's length.
Streets were flooded in Jiddah, waist high in some areas, and some pilgrims and journalists were trapped there. In Mecca, electricity was off and on throughout the day.
It often rains in Mecca and Jiddah during the winter months, but Wednesday's downpour was the heaviest in years during the hajj. Jiddah was swamped with 2.76 inches of rain, more than it would normally get in an entire year, according to Dale Mohler, senior meteorologist at the Web site, Accuweather.com.
Rains were expected through Friday, he said, warning of the possibility of flash floods and mudslides in the mountains surrounding Mecca.
"There's no vegetation on the slopes to soak up the rain," Mohler said.
The hajj is a religious duty for every able-bodied Muslim. Many around the world wait a lifetime for a chance to make the spiritual journey in the footsteps of the Prophet Muhammad and Abraham, who Muslims view as a forefather of Islam. For believers, it is an opportunity to cleanse one's sins before God.
It is also a logistical nightmare. Over four days, the population of a small city moves by car, bus and foot between Mecca and several holy sites in the desert nearby, each day performing a different rite all at the same time.
Civil Defense spokesman Maj. Abdullah al-Harthi said his organization has plans ready to deal with flooding, and had 300 buses to evacuate people if necessary.
Saudi Arabia's biggest worry for months ahead of the hajj was swine flu. The Saudi government has been working with the United States' Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to set up clinics and take precautions to stem any outbreak.
Signs at the airport and around the holy sites urge the faithful to cover their faces when they cough, wash their hands often and wear a mask. The swine flu vaccine is available free at the airport. More than 100 clinics have been set up at holy sites, and large supplies of Tamiflu and other anti-flu medications are on hand.
Hassan El Bushra, an epidemiologist in the Cairo office of the World Health Organization, said "there is no evidence" that the rain would worsen the spread of the virus. It is carried in the air, by sneezes, coughs and touch — not waterborne. The rain could even be beneficial if it means crowds are smaller, he said.
So far, four pilgrims have died from swine flu since arriving in Saudi Arabia, and 67 others have been diagnosed with the virus, Saudi Health Minister Abdullah al-Rabeeah told the English version of the Arab news network Al-Jazeera.
The crowds, seven people for every square meter, provide a perfect environment for swine flu, said Shahul Ebrahim, a consultant at the hajj from the U.S. CDC.
"Ideally you should be one meter away from someone to avoid catching the disease," he said.
But most visitors were too caught up in the exhilaration of the spiritual experience to worry. Nigerian pilgrim Omar Issa said he chose not to get a swine flu vaccination.
"I am not afraid of anything because God protects me. I came here for a religious reason, I am here to worship God," he said.

this is for those of u who think the solution to Nigeria's problem is war, please click on the following link
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2DA7tZD2OLc&feature=related. my step dad is nigerian and i hear all the comments he makes with his friends. i also read blogs and see how nigerians advocate death for the corrupt government. violence begets violence which only begets more violence. the politicians need to be rid of somehow (i have no solution) but calling for violence will only set your country back.

@komokam, ure damn stupid. what's the difference between an african american and a black man born in africa? apart from the fact that they speak different? have u been downsouth lately? louisiana? florida? alabama? arkansas. trust me, if the anti-immigration bias being shown against mexicans is extended to blacks most of the brothers that were born in the states i listed above would be on the first boat to africa. those brothers make djimon hansou look like shamar moore and denzel put together. furthermore, have u see the brothers from cape verde? angola?mozambique? guinea? etc, if they never opened their mouths to talk u'd swear (in ur ignorant bliss that all light skinned blacks are 'american') that were american. oh boy, wuts the point tryna teach a billy-goat how to punt a football?

I believe that, naturally, we as black people have a distinct odor (though not as bad as white or central americans, and nowhere as bad as asians----especially the chinese. hehehehehe). i used to smell the african/haitian cab drivers alot. but the day i knew that Nigerians had a certain odor was at a party in NY earlier this year. everyone was dressed to the T; lookn all classy and shit. but the moment u stepped in what hit u was how rancid the whole place stunk, i couldnt even try to talk to any gal in there.uuuuurrrrggggggghhhh!!!!!

blackspade, im not talking about the accent. they have an accent to me, i have an accent to them, thats not the issue. the issue is pronunciation. like sayin "muzzle" instead of "muscle"; "huzzle" instead of "hustle" "plah-tay-num" instead of "platinum". then, when speaking it, its a riot. it gets mangled. not by all of them of course, dont get me wrong. for example, i remember sometime last yr, yalll president was here, oh, geez, G.W almost had a fit, and he's not the best english speaker the united states ever had either,

then there was this other gal in the past that insisted we dated, scared the shit outta me and i bounced. so its vice versa.
