I hate to sound naïve, but if this is also an Islamic shrine, why are they blowing it up? As well as others in Iraq? It makes no sense.
Of course, why do I expect rationality from these people?
Think of it as Protestants blowing up a Catholic church because it has ‘idols’ and you’ll get some insight. Extreme Sunnis view the Shia practice of venerating shrines as heretical.
Because shrines are idolatry.
Check out 2 Kingsi 18:4.
They have a good point. Reckon why YHWH buried Moses himself? Deut 34:6
