I’m not a big fan of the International Heritage Site program, but when it comes to their safety from destruction, I think they are priceless and very much worthy of saving.

ISIS touches those sites, and it’s going to pay bloody hell for it.

I don’t think the world will sit by any further if they do.

Completely concur with you destruction of those iconic and historic sites would rivet the world with media attention.
At the same time they are unoccupied sand and stone...so the story would lose its "legs" after two or three weeks.
What a loss to history if they succeed. Hopefully the "good guys" prevail if an attack happens.

It seems like they are really trying to get us to get into a war with them.

I must respectfully disagree.

Organized gangs of muslims have been raping vulnerable British girls for years. You'd think when that came out, there'd be bloody hell for it.

As we all well know, those assaults made headlines for a few days. Then the West went back to sleep.

I couldn't care less; they are Egyptian monuments, let the Egyptians protect them.
If I recall correctly it was vandalized by a Sufi Moslim by the name of Mohammad Sa’im Dahr in the 14th century.

They certainly should, but from whom?
