UNESCO considers these actions perpetuated by ISIS as “war crimes.”

So, destroying the temple is a war crime but the genocide committed against humanity is not.

Ping!

“So, destroying the temple is a war crime but the genocide committed against humanity is not. “

Where did you get the “is not” part? I am no fan of the UN but I don’t think that accusation is accurate. There is more than enough material out there for honest criticism of the UN. No need to be making stuff up.

Zenobia may have worshipped there.

She was one of the most famous women of antiquity. Ruled the breakaway kingdom of Palmyra when the Roman Empire had its time of troubles in the 3rd century AD.

She was eventually defeated and brought to Rome as a prisoner.

Uh, it was a ruin “city”, which was originally used for devil worshipping. Whatever you say, but ISIS monsters are not hypocrites when it comes to idolatry. They even want to destroy the kabba stone.

Just pointing out that for 2,000 years it survives, then along comes the sleeper Muzzie in the White Mosque.

UNESCO and what army is going to stop this? The UN and what army is going to stop this?

The only way to stop rabid animals is to kill them by any means necessary and I can think of some very efficient yet economical ones once in our inventory.

All we need is a President, VP, Secy of State, Head of JCS, the Army, Navy, Air Force and Secy of Defense with guts to do it.

Oh am I out of my f**king mind? They don’t exist today, at least not in America. Israel, more likely.

"...are not hypocrites when it comes to idolatry."

Yeah, not like the Catholics, with their crucifixes, "stations of the cross," rosary beads, etc. You tell 'em, foe of all idolatry.

Pointless people with no culture of their own - only violence.
