At least people can remember that. They don't remember that the Taliban murdered 3000 people in the town nearest those statues around the same time because the western press was focused on the statues instead.

Wonder how many people are dying in Libya and Egypt that isn't getting reported because the press and our government are too busy trying to put lipstick on the pig called the "Arab Spring" so they can take it to the prom?

First of all there is no sign of “paganism” in the Great Pyramid, no depictions of gods on the walls, nor any other images. Second, Muhammad himself never objected to them.

But never mind the pyramids, they want to destroy America! I don’t see the nannyworld globalists worrying about that.

the Metropolitan Museum of Art built a new wing...

I'd imagine politics to play a part, both Egyptian and American. Here, the MuslimBro'hood in power, will push the gears to empty the museum and send back artifacts for it's destruction. Egyptians like Americans, do not think with one mind. Egyptian curators across Egypt will make known their preferences for Americans to hold onto anything Egyptian until such time, even if never, the MB tornado blows thru their country; while Egyptian "leaders" lobby along with American "leaders" otherwise.

The pyramids were built by non-Muslims and are a symbol of infidel occupation of Egypt; it is only right that they be demolished!

This is why the art “stolen” by the West, like the Elgin marbles and Rosetta Stone, should remain in the UK or the West - forever!
Never, ever, return anything to the insane kleptocrats of Africa and the ME. IIRC, we’ve returned the Rosetta Stone, so its doomed and how much has been destroyed and looted from the museums? How long before the Moslems destroy Kharnak, dynamite the Sphinx and resume quarrying the Pyramids?

Obama approves of this. If he says otherwise he’s a liar. But since he’s a liar anyway....

Islam is satanic. Simply satanic.

Destroying treasures is a mark of the devil.

I’d like to see the Muzzies try to bring a pyramid down. You just know they would make a hack-job of it, and only bring down half of one, and then they wouldn’t have money for the rest. Then the mutual recrimination would set in, and they would start killing each other.

...I believe the Sphinx would still have his nose.

I heard that the nose damage is due to British gunners using it as target practice.

You know, this makes sense. Fundamentally, Islam seems to be a weak religion. At least that's how I see it. Many, many Muslims seem to be basically insecure in their faith. How else do you explain their fear of other religions, their refusal to let anyone practice them? They fundamentally fear that they and their religion are inferior to others. Hence they lash out at anyone and anything perceived as a threat. Because they are so insecure, just about everyone and anything is seen as a threat.

If they really were sure of themselves, sure of their religious convictions, they would not fear others and their faith.

Grow up Islam, if we were really out to get you, you'd be long gone by now.

Lord of the Flies stuff for sure. All of a sudden “Colonialism” doesn’t look so bad any more.

I think thats a myth! I've even heard the story Napolean did it. But I believe the truth is something more like this quote suggests:

"According to Makrizi, Rashidi and other medieval Arab scholars, the face of the Sphinx was vandalized in 1378 A.D. by Mohammed Sa'im al-Dahr, a "fanatical sufi of the oldest and most highly respected sufi convent of Cairo." The nose and ears are mentioned specifically as having been damaged at this time. According to one account, Haarmann states, the residents in the neighborhood of the Sphinx were so upset by the destruction that they lynched him and buried him near the great monument he ruined."

-An article by Ulrich Haarmann, "Regional Sentiment in Medieval Islamic Egypt," published in the University of London's Bulletin Of The School Of Oriental And African Studies (BSOAS), vol.43 (1980) p.55-66

"Mt. Rushmore"

There are plenty of libs who would like to see the Mr. Rushmore monument destroyed. Nick Coleman, a columnist for the Minneapolis (Red)Star-Tribune, years ago posited that idea. Because the Black Hills should be given back to the Indians. Coleman was (is?) always coming up with nutty ideas like that. I haven't read any of articles for years, but let's just say he was a typical lib scribbler.

If Ronald Reagan were President & the muzzies commenced destruction of the Pyramids, he would send the U.S. Air Force to bomb the destroyers.

The cult of Islam will destroy itself. Islam serves the satanic unholy trinity of hate, lies and death. The Pyramid of Giza provides a point of balance for earth's orbit. Great earth changes are at hand as the madmen of Islam rush to their self destruction.

Before the MUzzies tear down their history, there is one thing they need to do. Create the Caliphate. I predict if Obama is reelected, Egypt and Libya will merge under 1 Islamic flag. They will take down Chad, The Sudan and then Somalia.

Then they will hold until they can stabilize the territory and kill everyone who isn’t a muzzy.

The other myth is that Napoleon Bonaparte led a French force into Egypt and as the column passed by the Pyramids & Sphinx, he reminded his troops,

“Remember, forty centuries are looking down upon you!”
