Women could be banned at some Muslim hajj ceremonies

The annual pilgrimage to Mecca, the hajj, is unfortunately gotten a reputation for unintentional havoc: Many Muslims are injured or killed from stampedes brought un by overcrowding.

The best way to control overcrowding is to have fewer people at the hajj. And in a Muslim way of thinking, the Saudis may have come up with a solution: banning women from some of the hajj ceremonies.

Subjugation of women: It's the Islamic way.
