This is what Obama endorsed.
Now, lets add in all the other islamic winters moving in.
Let it simmer for a while and wait for it to explode!

Gah, that’s depressing. All those artifacts lost forever.

Are we to understand that there was no electronic archive prepared for each of these rare items? I suppose ‘library’ doesn’t translate well to the culture which believes all things pre-Islamic (jahilyya) is disposable.

Hopefully there was, and that the electronic archive is stored outside of Egypt.

As I expected. The only reason most of the Egyptian antiquities survived the Muslim Caliphate is that most of them were hidden beneath the sand. Now they’ve been dug up, I expect they will gut all the museums and smash all those statues of pharaohs and gods.
Ironic that there was such resentment about foreign museums getting some of that stuff, and such insistence that it should be returned to the real owners—who will now proceed to destroy all of it.

This is what Democratic Progressives endorse. The Islamists have done this for a millennium. They are just completing what they started by the last burning of the Library of Alexandria.
Do you expect any condemnation of this from the Executive Office, State Department, or even NPR? (crickets...)

Why not? The afghanis destroyed the statues of buddahs that stood for centuries.

This will culminate in the dynamiting of the Sphinx and the Luxor statues. I called this long ago.

On the plus side, it’ll be interesting to see if there are any secret rooms underneath the pyramids and sphynx.

They are going to have a lot more trouble burning the Pyramids.

Real Egyptians died out thousands of years ago. The current Egyptians are either Arabs, Africans, Europeans, or the mix of those three.

The moslems have been actively destroying artefacts of other cultures for a long time.

Same thing every commie gummit does when they take power. Hitler wiped the history books and Bible clean to brainwash who he wanted.
