Islamic State militants in Iraq have blown up the remnants of the prestigious Latin Church, dubbed the "Clock Church" for its prominent clock tower in central Mosul, according to the Patriarch of the Chaldeans, Louis Raphael Sacco.
Militants cordoned off areas surrounding the church and looted the building for profitable artifacts and antiquities before destroying the remaining parts with explosives, an Iraqi Christian community leader confirmed to The Foreign Desk.
The Clock Church, which had its clock tower gifted in 1873 to Iraqi Christians by Napoleon III’s wife, French Empress Eugénie, became a target of ISIS attacks in February 2015, when its cross was removed in an attack, according to Iraqi blog Niqash.

This is why 2016 is going to be a very important election year. We need good leaders again.
After teading the article, the restrictions ISIS has on Christians is more closely aligned to wait the left does/wants to do with others who don’t follow their ideals.
There is NO reason that any ISIS adherent needs to be breathing!
Muslims respect nothing that isn’t Muslim. Why we want any more in this country is beyond me. Unless, of course, it is part of a grand strategy to undermine Western Civilization.
It reminds me of what the left is doing with the Confederate Flag and other Southern heritage symbols.
ISIS destroys a clock tower because it offends them. The PC crowd destroys a Confederate statue because it offends them.
I’m starting to see a pattern here.
ISIS = fascism
PC = fascism
If ISIS destroys everything worth preserving, the incentive against nuking them vanishes.
The most inbred population on the earth, their intelligence is low.
Unlike europe, Islam did not participate in enlightenment and they kill their own, have no problems raping women. It spreads by killing.
And most important: ) is they don't like dogs. Civilization cannot exist without dogs. Islam hates dogs.
This summary comes from what I have read and learned over the years. They have to be rid of.
It pains me but civilization has to be preserved otherwise it can devolve. How much have we lost. God is pushing us.
Such a shame, beautiful structure.
My post from two weeks ago that still applies:
Here is an link to an article that shows an example of the end goal of Islam. The “moderates” may not directly support the killings, murder, torture and conquest but they will never do anything to stop it unless it happens to also be in their own self-interest.(al-Sisi of Egypt and Abdullah II of Jordon being rare exceptions...to a point). The process has been a relentless ratcheting up of Muslim domination starting from the Arabian peninsula 1400 years ago until the present day. The ratchet only knows one direction unless it encounters a strong counter force that is not present in the world right now. If the US and Europe were to stop the Muslim immigration today it will only matter somewhat in the short term as their numbers and influence will have already increased in the heart of the West. Just a short waiting game until the next opportunity. Domination and dhimmitude marches on and patience is one of Islam’s greatest strengths.

Just saw your post after I posted. See my post # 12. Seems we’re on the same wavelength.
Because Islam is from the spiritual enemy, SATAN.
Because he is leaving a MESS for DJT to CLEAN UP.
Time to get the good news of the Gospel out.
That stupid box is just asking for a drone hit.
The following figures are from the 80’s. My how things have changed.
As long as the Muslim population remains around 1% of any given country they will be regarded as a peace-loving minority and not as a threat to anyone. In fact, they may be featured in articles and films, stereotyped for their colorful uniqueness:
Nation % Muslim
United States 1.0%
Australia 1.5%
Italy 1.5%
Norway 1.8%
Canada 1.9%
China 2.0%
At 2% and 3% they begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs:
Nation % Muslim
Denmark 2.0%
United Kingdom 2.7%
Germany 3.7%
Spain 4.0%
Thailand 4.6%
From 5% on they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population. They will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature it on their shelves along with threats for failure to comply. (United States).
Nation % Muslim
Switzerland 4.3%
Philippines 5.0%
Sweden 5.0%
The Netherlands 5.5%
Trinida and Tabago 5.8%
France 8.0%
At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves under Sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islam is not to convert the world but to establish Sharia law over the entire world. When Muslims reach 10% of the population, they will increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions (Paris car-burnings). Any non-Muslim action that offends Islam will result in uprisings and threats (Amsterdam - Mohammed cartoons).
Nation % Muslim
Guyana 10.0%
India 13.4%
Israel 16.0%
Kenya 10.0%
Russia 15.0%
After reaching 20% expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings and church and synagogue burning:
Nation % Muslim
Ethiopia 32.8%
At 40% you will find widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks and ongoing militia warfare:
Nation % Muslim
Bosnia 40.0%
Chad 50.1%
Lebanon 59.7%
From 60% you may expect unfettered persecution of non-believers and other religions, sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon and Jizya, the tax placed on infidels:
Nation % Muslim
Albania 70.0%
Malaysia 60.4%
Qatar 77.5%
Sudan 70.0%
After 80% expect State run ethnic cleansing and genocide:
Nation % Muslim
Bangladesh 83.0%
Egypt 90.0%
Gaza 98.7%
Indonesia 86.1%
Iran 98.0%
Iraq 97.0%
Jordan 92.0%
Morocco 98.7%
Pakistan 97.0%
Syria 90.0%
Tajikistan 90.0%
Turkey 99.8%
United Arab Emirates 96.0%
100% will usher in the peace - Dar-es-Salaamâ - the Islamic House of Peace, there is supposed to be peace because everybody is a Muslim: Nation % Muslim
Yemen 99.9%
Afghanistan 100.0%
Saudi Arabia 100.0%
Somalia 100.0%
Of course, that’s not the case. To satisfy their blood lust, Muslims then start killing each other for a variety of reasons.
