If we allow it, there will come a day when these thugs try to erect a mosque over St. Peter's tomb.
I have no doubt that, somewhere in the bowels of Tora Bora or Ramallah plans for the final mosque conversion exist. Gild the dome, move some pillars, carpet the steps and there you have it.
The lack of coverage in the US media, even when it happened, is chilling.
If?
This happened a year and a half ago.
Have you heard the World complain? The USA?
If Israel now took it back, you would hear of Israel desecrating an Islamic site.
I'll go back to my original point. If you care about such things, include yourself among the poportionally infinitesimal Gentile righteous- although I don't know how you could be on FR for so long and not know.
The Islamization Of Biblical Sites In Israel
Give Europe another 50 years, maybe less. Muslim immigration and birth rates will accomplish what jihad could not.
Nobody but a few and some disparate stories in the press from time to time gave a rat's *ss when the Pan Albanian Islamics destroyed all kinds of Serbian Orthodox churches and sights. By the way. The Saudis offered almost a half a million to build mosques in Kosovo. Some likely over those same areas where churches once stood.

KOSOVO CRUCIFIED - ONLINE VERSION
Desecrated Icons in Post-war Kosovo
All these barbarous acts by the Albanian extremists have occured in the presence of UN and the International Peace Forces (KFOR), not in the time of war but of PEACE. The Serbian Orthodox Church and its Historical and Religious heritage are exposed to systematic destruction and extermination in the very presence of the most powerful armed forces of the world and in the very heart of Europe. The Kosovo Albanian gangs of looters, arsonsts, miners are mercilessly destroying the monuments which are of world wide renown and which have survived centuries of turbulent history. With such a systematic campaign against the Christianity, Civilization and World Culture Kosovo Albanian extremists prove that thier goal remains ethnically cleansed Kosovo without Serbs and their Christian monuments.
