Unless the free world rallies behind this war on terror, all museums will face the same fate. It will be the Stone Age with modern weapons.

Seeing the destruction of the treasures of the museum was a tragedy, but the most heartrending thing I was was an old man returning to his farm and collecting the deadwood of his vineyard that had been destroyed by the Taliban. Those vines had been on his families land for generations. I would rather see that 30 to 50 million dollars go into replacing the vineyards and orchards that fed that nation.
Yes, you have to feed the soul too, but the body must be fed first.

Oh no - NOT shattered art and broken antiquities!
Now at last the world has a reason to condemn & hate the bastards.

Let's not forget... it's only stuff. Let's be 10000X more shocked at what they did to people.

Collectors buying stolen antiquities face stiff penalties.

Ya know, being a Talibunny or Al Qaeda member should be grounds for immediate, merciless, execution. They should empty out Guantanamo into shallow graves. These people have no place in a civilized world.

Someone used the term "Rebarb" a while ago, for those new barbarians who would re-barbianize the world. They should be hunted down like rats, as they would hunt us down.
