I don’t like seeing ancient cities destroyed. It robs everyone of a rich exposure to history.

Here two factions of Islam, are content to destroy some of their most sacred artifacts.

And then they belch about some small infraction that Israel has supposedly made. It’s just nuts.

Just like our black-on-black crime is not important for black "leaders" but they will jump all over Zim or some white who uses the magic "N" word.

Group identity is stronger than anything. That is why our "progressives" are trying to destroy our national group identity.

History is a process, not an event.

Aleppo lies on the main road, the trade route. The city’s heritage includes destruction and rebuilding countless times. The current struggle with death will certainly result in rebirth. Some of the very old will survive and still be revered. Perhaps the battle scarred Great Mosque will also
survive to be remembered and revered for pulling through

I hear you.

But when it's just Islamic crap that gets blown up then I am cool with that.

We should however preserve the ruins so that in later years we can point at them and laugh.
