ERBIL, Iraqi – Satellite photos obtained by The Associated Press confirm what church leaders and Middle East preservationists had feared: The oldest Christian monastery in Iraq has been reduced to a field of rubble, yet another victim of the ISIS terror group's relentless destruction of heritage sites it considers heretical.

The last muslim will be in a diorama in a natural history museum with stitches on its head.

Has this been a mosque, the entire Islamic world would be in a jihadic frenzy running rampant through every city street in the world.

No big deal, says Obama.

First they destroy books, buildings and history - then they go for the people. This is the way it always is.

The problem is not Muslims running amok if you destroy a mosque as they do it everyday, kill each other a detonate explosives on each other.

No, the main problem is when a Liberal, self-defeating, Western, useful idiot, bleeding heart, sympathizers go into a Jihadic frenzy over such an act.

Roman Catholic Army chaplain Jeffrey Whorton, who celebrated Mass on the monastery's altar, was grief-stricken at its loss. "Why we treat each other like this is beyond me," he said. "Elijah the prophet must be weeping."

Elijah the Prophet is not weeping, he is in the presence of the Lord and knows that this too shall pass.

And WE didn't do this, the Muslims did this, just like they are doing it all over the world. Christians didn't tear down mosques and blow up Islamic sites, or Buddhist sites or anything else. or did any Americans, except for that stupid statue of Saddam.

At some point long ago in this war, the Vatican should've been involved in paying mercenaries to protect these Christian treasures. It's appalling that the US and our allies have deposed leaders who protect Christians and other minorities and preserved their heritage.

So what does this Pope do? Welcome invaders and encourage others to do so. Still waiting for a "migrant" camp inside the walls of the Vatican....with this Pope, who knows?

Beyond disgusted.

You see.....Christians and Muslims worship the same god.

“A lowlife trademark: they attempt to destroy history they’re not comfortable with...”

Like making Safe Spaces at universities and colleges.

We all have the same God. The Muslims who kill innocent people are not worshipping that God, and have no clue about the nature of God.

[SpaceBar]

We all have the same God.

No we don't. Not by a longshot pardner.

We all have the same God.

No we don’t. Not by a longshot pardner.

Actually we do all have the same God. There is only one God.

The muzzies worship something else. The devil? An evil hero-warrior? Whatever it is, it is not God.

[SpaceBar]

The devil?

Ummm duh. Did you just roll out of the cradle?

[Teacher317]

They’re not destroying God or faith... “merely” history. Unfortunately, I love history and artifacts and anything man-made that has lasted for a long long time. Islam needs to be put down.

[samtheman]

What, are you attacking me personally over this?

You are the one who said we do not all have the same God.

I was POLITELY pointing out something which you (as a stranger to me, I do not know you, do not know what you really think) at the very least worded very poorly.

There is only one God, no matter what anyone on the planet says they believe about anything.

[triSranch]

Destroying parts of history imagine that. Glad they don’t do stuff like that in the Southern States. That would make people like that just like ISIS or worse.
