The Islamists want the bones so they can destroy them, as they do with other symbols of non-Islamic religions.

Indeed. Missing from the article is any mention of why Turkey wants the remains, so my default reasoning leads me to the same conclusion as yours. I guess they just need a “struggle” to get through the day.

The Islamists want the bones so they can destroy them, as they do with other symbols of non-Islamic religions.And probably build a mosque on the ashes.
But I wonder how many Rome-bashing Protestants would applaud the destruction of those relics?
