When compared to their other barbarous crimes the book burning looks pretty trivial. But I have to admit that there is something deep inside me that reacts with visceral horror to the deliberate destruction of books, artifacts and cultural heirlooms.
Agreed. The book burning to me is just another visceral horror in addition to the murders these “mooselimbs” have done. I was just as sick at what the Taliban did when they shot up that huge Buddha in Afghanistan.
