ISIS gets dumber! They have continued their war against historical artifacts by attacking the ancient archaeological site of Nimrud in North Iraq, smashing up the place with bulldozers. Because Allah Akber.
No one knows how bad the damage is, but Wikipedia is prepared for the worst.
Looking at this situation, we see that Islam is much like communism in that it seeks to erase history of people in order to create a global system of homogeneity.
Granted, these were Whites and not Arabs who built these great monuments they are destroying, but at the same time, they were still the ancestors of these Arabs. The reason they don’t have civilizations like this any more is that their blood is mixed.
It was the latest in a series of attacks on ancient structures and artifacts in Syria and Iraq that the group has destroyed in the name of its harsh interpretation of Islamic law. Last week, Islamic State militants videotaped themselves destroying statues and artifacts in the Mosul Museum and at the Nergal Gate entryway to ancient Nineveh. The militants captured the city during its offensive blitz through much of Iraq last June. “The terrorist gangs of ISIS are continuing to defy the will of the world and the feelings of humanity after they committed a new crime that belongs to its idiotic series,” the ministry said in a statement on its Facebook page, referring to the Islamic State, also known as ISIS, ISIL or Daesh.
Nimrud is the sprawling site of a city founded by the Assyrian King Shalamansar I, who died in 1245 B.C. Among the most impressive objects at Nimrud are the colossal statues known as “lamassu,” mythological creatures that depict either lions or winged bulls with bearded human heads. Pairs of the 17-ton statues are at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the British Museum.
Many of the massive Nimrud statues remain buried at the site. But the ISIS video from the Mosul Museum clearly shows at least one statue from Nimrud being defaced. And the site has many areas that archaeologists have not yet explored.
George C. Papagiannis, the Unesco world heritage officer in charge in Iraq from 2009 to 2011, said the loss of any artifacts from Nimrud was a dark blow to historical preservation. “These extremists are trying to destroy the entire cultural heritage of the region in an attempt to wipe the slate clean and rewrite history in their own brutal image,” he said.
Wacky behavior this is!
At least the best stuff had already been looted and is in the British museum.
The question remains: what the hell are these ISIS guys up to?
Why do they act so erratically and ridiculous? Is it a completely Jew-run organization? Are they just stupid Arabs?
Whatever the case, one thing is certain: these people are as goofy as they are bloodthirsty.
