Isis is going to have to kill a lot of Egyptians before that happens.

Hear that Egypt? ISIS wants to blow up your rice bowl.

And what do we do with people who try to blow up our rice bowl?

Run screaming to the US for help
in return for vague promises to
do things they may or may not do?

Of course the fact that these world heritage sites have nothing to do with idolatry is irrelevant. ISIS is opposed to culture of any kind. That they continue to exist after a year of murder and mayhem is a tribute to the moral lethargy of the rest of the world.

I hope that in the 2016 election we get a president with some intestinal fortitude. This guy is sitting on his hands and watching the antiquities of the middle east be systematically be destroyed.

I seriously doubt the Egyptians will run to this president for help. They remember what happened the last time he got involved in their affairs.

I say it’s a requirement to kill the Caliph as he is a living idol.

Not a whole heck of a lot different from knocking down statues and monuments.
Repainting collector cars.
Shunning anyone that speaks the truth.
Just to appease the gods of Political Correctness here in the disUnited States.

Merkel and Putin, perhaps. The leaders of the free world.

Somehow, “free world” doesn’t mean what it used to before Obola was shoved (I hate to say elected) into office by the one-worlders.
