Part of the relics of history...forever lost due to radical Muslim idiocy.

It makes me wonder, though, how many past civilizations the world might have had whose history was forever destroyed by their enemies. Kind of an interesting thought that there may have been many other civilizations that we will never know about.

Another proof that those Fanatical Muslims are just not thinking with human minds. To not care about history is pure creature mentality.

They should pout out a warning, destroy any more Christian locations and we blow up the hadj and start on the Mosques. Then do it.

They were already doing it in Afghanistan when Bush opened the door and invited them into Iraq.

This type of devastation can hardly be attributed to just Muslim idiocy. It has gone on for thousands of years. Whenever a group or country takes over an area destroying it's history seems to be part of the equation. The numbers of libraries burnt down and artifacts destroyed is mind boggling but the 'winners' or strongest group always wants the stories told on their terms. To me, it makes 'history' itself a very fluid subject and is the reason why I rarely believe 'official' versions of things. This why I will often try and find information that has been suppressed to try and round out the facts.

Around here I take a lot of flak as a denier of this or that 'official' version of things but I'm not good at just accepting the pap that I'm fed.

While thinking of this, look what we and England did to Dresden. We went in and deliberately destroyed an amazing art and cultural center just because we could. Much, in addition to human lives was lost there and it really wasn't necessary to win the war.

After the invasion a special squad was sent in, you can find them on line with a mere one hit google, this squad had a list of which artifacts to take - others stole them to sell - I don't believe all have been smashed but instead now sitting in private collectors cabinets ie Timbuktu ancient books - that said every conqueror in History has destroyed and plundered. It is heart breaking.

Why would anyone blame Obama for what Bush did? (Sarcasm)
