OH NOOO!,ISIS Destroys 3,000-Year-Old Mosul Museum Artifacts

That's as disgusting as imagining a few thousand entrenched and wealth-gorged elitists destroying all of human civilization's best potential and aspirations for insane, misplaced psychotic greed needs.

[how many more random comments do I have to post before I can initiate a thread?]

more likely just US // UK special forces pulling the same # they tried in Iraq when they were stealing and destroying artifacts....

Unbreakable: Have to agree with this. Granted Saddam and Ghadafi were tyrants BUT there was order because these people were too afraid to pull this crap under those regimes. Iraq and Libya turned into sh!tholes after we stuck our nose in their business and removed those guys. The USA had a hand in helping to create this mess. Although ruling by fear is bad, those people can only be controlled by instilling fear. That's why they respond by their own brand of terror.

I imagine some 'peoples' need a sledge hammer to rule them into obedience, you remove the dictator and all hell breaks loose. These countries will never be 'democracies' they just don't think that way. Guidance (for them) comes from a heavy hand, I guess "Its this or else and bear the consequences of Sharia law". Definitely not a situation one could overlay the idea of the separation of "Church and State" (what is that, what does it mean) that wouldn't be understood (by them) for 100 years. ISIS lives in medieval times. If you live in Saudi Arabia it is a crime to be anything other than Muslim.

They do this wherever radical Islam takes hold. Remember the Buddhas in Afghanistan? The Sufi tombs in Africa? They don't see it as preserving history and heritage. It's a form of idolatry so it must all be destroyed.

Tell that the Chinese and what they did to the Tibetan Buddhist Temples (they wanted the GOLD, the land and to obliterate their culture and language).

Bearack: And anyone who thinks that if these guys are not willing to destroy thousands of year old artifacts because of their religious beliefs and leave non-muslims alone is sickly naive.
This is now officially a plague and if Muslims want to to try and save Islam from this perversion, they need to step up now and send EVERYTHING they have at these monsters to destroy it. If they leave these barbarians to their own devices, then they too are the problem!

Muslims that are moderate really need to get a grip on this thing that is ruining/corrupting the Koran's teachings. Do they not understand a 'reformation' needs to take place NOW; similar to the Christian reformation. They do not see what is coming; their own murder because they are not Jihadists, joining fighting along side them. Are they not the least bit worried? I would be. Where does Kuwait and Saudi Arabia stand on this. "Jihadi Johnny" (the well spoken one that their figurehead; behind the Teenage mutant ninja turtle mask that beheaded 4 people on camera) was just identified as Kuwaiti born; educated in London coming from a very wealthy family (that's embarrassing). I hope someone put a bounty on his head.

Wouldn't it be great if some of these artifacts are cursed and these scum are devoured alive by scarab beetles and their offspring are also cursed for eternity?

UMMM actually

The lamassu is a celestial being from Mesopotamian mythology bearing a human head, bull's body, sometimes with the horns and the ears of a bull, and wings. It appears frequently in Mesopotamian art. The lamassu and shedu were household protective spirits of the common Babylonian people, becoming associated later as royal protectors, were placed as sentinels at the entrances.[citation needed] The Akkadians associated the god Papsukkal with lamassu and the god Išum with shedu. To protect houses, the lamassu were engraved in clay tablets, which were then buried under the door's threshold. They were often placed as a pair at the entrance of palaces. At the entrance of cities, they were sculpted in colossal size, and placed as a pair, one at each side of the door of the city, that generally had doors in the surrounding wall, each one looking towards one of the cardinal points. The ancient Jewish people were influenced by the iconography of Assyrian culture. The prophet Ezekial wrote about a fantastic being made up of aspects of a human being, a lion, an eagle and a bull. Later, in the early Christian period, the four Gospels were ascribed to each of these components. When it was depicted in art, this image was called the Tetramorph.

release the kraken

I just cant take it, the outrageous ignorance of a minor few. Release the kraken. Birth Quetzalcoatl, let Harpies take to the air over ISIS strongholds in order to torment them.

These ISIS/ISIL jihadists are NOT "ruining/corrupting" the Koran's teachings (as you say) -- they're following it.

Muhammad prohibited idolatry. Idols of gods are destroyed. It doesn't matter to these vicious, moral cretins that the idols are priceless, irreplaceable artifacts of human history.

Islam has been toxic from its inception -- that's what the world needs to wake up to.

It's a "violent, totalitarian political system disguised as a religion." It's never been a spiritual path.

I need to add: Jihadi Johnny is not from a "very wealthy family" -- he's from a middle-class family (father was a taxi driver). JJ managed to get a computer degree from a university in London. So, no, he's not some disadvantaged youth in dire need of a job.

You should change your name...

Because lies also hurt...


I also hope to Allah you're "not trying to be smart"...

Because you're not smart...

You are in fact, the polar opposite!



If a Muslim majority wanted to force you into anything...
It would have happened long ago.

Your Zionist originated deception is fully flawed and disproven by many Quranic verses...



Scream "Taqiyya" all you want on the boards...


But when you look in the mirror...
You very well will know you're looking at a grand deceiver!!!
I hope you can live with that.



"Further the cause"... So oft repeated by the same people...
You can join the queue of people throwing that accusation around...


You see my signature...
It is a Surah forbidding Muslims from forcing anything onto anyone...

It's actually in the Holy Quran we live by...

As opposed to the nonsense you posted which is what the Zionists invented and spread around the Islamophobic community to propagate hatred & has no such origin in the Holy Quran!!!



But you knew this...
People like you prey on those who don't...

So again, remember this post, and your chosen handle for ATS, everytime you look in the mirror...

If you have a conscience, or an ounce of decency and honesty, you'll admit to spreading falsehoods...
If not... Carry on...


Salam Alaykum!

Prohibiting 'idolatry' is a long way from killing anyone not of ones faith. Do you realize if this ideology was exacted by all religious faiths discriminating against one another EVERYONE WOULD BE DEAD AT EVERYONE ELSES HANDS?

That's right 'anyone' that lives in Kuwait as a citizen born HAS TO WORK FOR A LIVING (really? NO!!!!) they exist on oil stipend/subsidies (DOL). I suppose 'Cab driver' family lived Bedouin style outside the city in a tent; actual cab was a camel; and was STILL able to send his son to 'tony' LONDON *expensive* to live within and also pay his schooling on a cab drivers pay? At least you agree he was not a disadvantaged youth; PROBLEM, his parents spawned SATANS SON and for whatever reason FAILED in the upbringing of this progeny called AN ABOMINATION (they should have warned/ALERTED the authorities- If I were them I would have started with MOHAMMED HIMSELF).

Has Anyone Stopped and Thought that Maybe this Video could Possibly be a HOAX ? A Bunch of Fanatics Smashing Replicas of Ancient Persian Statues and Relics for purely Propaganda Reasons ? Don't Believe Everything you see coming from a MSM Feed Nowadays , it's Usually just a bunch of B.S.

Thank you for understanding.

I'll break it down...

Muhammad preached the message...
The Arabians tried to diminish his efforts with many strategies...
They also tried to force their paganism in Mecca onto him and his followers...
He reacted in kind by destroying the statues they worshipped due to the Idolatry corrupting the Land...


Now in comparison to ISIS...
Who are not being forced into anything by anybody...
Who are smashing statues that are not idolised by anybody, but have a historical and educational value which ISIS frown upon for a number of reasons...



That, is why I have stated that the message was twisted for their own narrative.

Nope

Mohammad smashed, Isis smashed

Same thing.

They see it that way and they will keep doing it that way. They emulate the prophet in his living acts. You moderates fail to understand this and miss their message.
If you do not understand the enemy you cannot defeat them

The more destructive these tards become ... the greater the global will to halt their progress - will be.

The sooner the world breaks out the can of global mortein the better.

They are less than cockroaches !!!

Dr Robert Winstone operated on patients...
Josef Mengele operated on patients...


So I guess they're exactly the same type of person!



Your simplified notion in veiled hatred is sad.
