It just shows how fanatical those people are. Many thousands more will think nothing of strapping explosives to themselves and going out as a diaspora in the west. They will do that anyway. Nothing new and I'm sure we didn't create any new enemies. They have hated us all along. they hate you too by the way.

I hear the body count is now up to 56. I plan to send my condolences...... when I get around to it. A simple question; why do these types of incidences never happen in Western countries (except when nightclubs catch on fire)?

Recent Incidents during the Haaj from Wikipedia.
"Sometimes the dense, surging troupes, trekking from one station of the pilgrimage to the next, cause a stampede, or more precisely, a progressive troupe collapse. At densities above 6 or 7 persons per square meter, individuals cannot move, groups are swept along in waves, individuals jostle to find breath and to avoid falling and being trampled, and hundreds of deaths can occur as a result. The stoning of the devil (ramī aj-jamarāt) ceremony is particularly crowded and dangerous. Pilgrims ritualistically throw pebbles at three walls (formerly pillars) which represent the three places where the Hadiths describes how the devil tempted Abraham. It is one of a series of ritual acts that must be performed during the Hajj.
Some notable incidents include:
July 2, 1990: A stampede inside a pedestrian tunnel (Al-Ma'aisim tunnel) leading out from Mecca towards Mina and the Plains of Arafat led to the deaths of 1,426 pilgrims, many of them of Malaysian, Indonesian and Pakistani origin.[2][3] May 23, 1994: A stampede killed at least 270 pilgrims at the stoning of the Devil ritual. April 9, 1998: at least 118 pilgrims were trampled to death and 180 injured in an incident on Jamaraat Bridge.[4] March 5, 2001: 35 pilgrims were trampled to death in a stampede during the stoning of the Devil ritual.[5] February 11, 2003: The stoning of the Devil ritual claimed 14 pilgrims' lives.[6] February 1, 2004: 251 pilgrims were killed and another 244 injured in a stampede during the stoning ritual in Mina.[7] January 22, 2005: A stampede through the stoning ritual in Mina led to the killing of three pilgrims[8] January 12, 2006: A stampede during the stoning of the Devil on the last day of the Hajj in Mina killed at least 346 pilgrims and injured at least 289 more. The incident occurred shortly after 13:00 local time, when a busload of travelers arrived together at the eastern access ramps to the Jamaraat Bridge. This caused pilgrims to trip, rapidly resulting in a lethal stampede. An estimated two million people were performing the ritual at the time. September 24, 2015: At least 2,236[9] pilgrims were killed during a stampede. The Saudi government has yet to release an official report. A few weeks after the incident, the Saudi Vice Minister of Health officially announced 4,173 people dead in this incident in a press release,[10][11] however, this page was removed from the website within three hours and requesting it would redirect the visitor to the home page. The Saudi Health Minister claimed that the published death toll was false in a Twitter post.[12] Fars News, a semi-official news agency of Iran, provided a walkthrough video to accessing the page assuming it was out of reach due to high page requests.[13] An Associated Press (AP) report compiled from official reports and statements totaled the deaths at at least 1,470, over 700 more than the figures from Saudi authorities, and the worst toll so far in Mecca.[14] The AP later updated its estimate to 2,411 pilgrims killed"
This is not what I would consider human behavior.

Keith Silly of you to expect animals to behave like humans.
I don't care how nice the hand soap smells, you should never walk out of the restroom sniffing your fingers.
