Mecca’s Grand Mosque Swarmed By Locusts

I’ve read about this scene before. Can’t remember where, though.

Mecca’s Grand Mosque plagued by swarm of locusts.

A massive swarm of locusts plagued Mecca, Saudi Arabia, earlier this week, prompting authorities at Islam’s holiest site to launch a cleaning operation to remove them.

Videos posted to social media showed the insects swarming around cleaners and worshipers in the city’s Grand Mosque, where millions of Muslim pilgrims congregate every year.

“Specialized teams have been directed to work in the fight to eliminate these insects,” authorities in Mecca said, according to the Al-Araby Al-Jadeed news site.

It would be a karmic moment if that big stupid box got eaten by termites. Am I right, Calypso Louie?

  1. Oh…aren’t those locusts who swarm around the big box once a year? I thought it was millions of bugs who have some attraction to whatever is inside the big box. I’ve looked at the pictures….I’m sure that’s millions of insects. Isn’t it?

  2. I think as a gesture of good-will that we have an Ohio Class submarine launch 24 tubes of special “insecticide” to help rid Mecca of the pests.

    Lots and lots of mushroom clouds of “insecticide”.

  3. …just to get ahead of the next edition of “What’s In The Box”, I’m going to say that the most sacred object in Islam CURRENTLY contains the ham sandwich that Mueller indicted…

  4. THE BORG from Star Trek the Next Generation with their giant cube space ship and robotic hive mentality is a metaphor for Islam. “Resistance is futile, you will be assimilated.”

    Betcha didn’t realize that. The Ferengi are Jews, and the Klingons are war-like Japanese.
