Islamic State militants have blown up the Arch of Triumph, a major monument in the 2,000-year-old Roman city of Palmyra, Syria's antiquities chief said on Sunday, after they destroyed two ancient temples at the central Syrian site in recent months.
Maamoun Abdulkarim told Reuters that sources in Palmyra had confirmed that the Arch of Triumph, a jewel in the exquisite collection of ruins in the oasis city, had been blown up.

And people don’t think they want to take out western culture?
Obama prefers the destroyers to the preservers.
Just following Jesse Jackson’s slogan, “Hey, hey, ho, ho, western culture’s got to go.”
Savages are happier with rubble they can rape women hiding behind. World give-a-shit meter is at zero and the needle will never move again.
obama stands with the muslim scum.
They are making Syria into another Detroit.
Weren’t the Russians supposed to stop this? Since Obama won’t.
Western culture ended slavery.
I take them at their word that they will try to capture Rome and destroy the Vatican. They want to destroy the symbolic heart of Christianity.
They want to destroy all history except their pig-humper’s alleged prophecy.
Ki;; them all.
Just another example of the destruction caused by Barry. We have another year to go with him. The entire world will be in shambles when he leaves.
He did promise change, though, didn’t he? At least he has kept that promise.
Too bad Putin didn’t move in about 2 months ago and start taking out these thugs and monsters.
At least official slavery. I think de facto slavery still exists in some countries and de jure slavery could make a comeback thanks to Islamists.
Obama smiles.
Never forget to extend thanks to the GOP that campaigned on working with Barry if reelected/given the house and senate.
Because it’s a lesser evil!
Western CHRISTIAN Culture ended Slavery as a “Good”. It was not deemed “evil” and still isn’t in pagan, atheist, muslim, Eastern, and tribal cultures.
Christianity also ended pederasty and homosexuality, polygamy, and child-killing as a “Good” which is normal in pagan, occult, satanic, atheist cultures. The atheists/pagans and satanists are making sodomy, homosexuality, pederasty and child-killing and polygamy “Popular” and “Good” again.
SCOTUS is flipping 2000 years of Ethics-—back to the non-Christian cultures.....it is why Christianity has to go-—so they can destroy Virtue in children and normalize Vice. Virtue is necessary for Freedom.
