Wanna hear something freaky? Saddam claimed he was the reincarnation of King Nebuchadnezzar, and he began rebuilding babylon, and even had money made in his honor that depicted him and the king on the front- billions of dollars was poured into rebuilding babylon- and unesco is set to pour even more money into finishing it apparently- Saddam tried desperately to buy the gates of the old temple of the god that was worshiped during the king’s reign The germans own it now- but they wouldn’t sell it to him-
And that is why the description in the Bible is that all people spoke one language, were of one mind, could do anything. They had mass communication and those who ran the tower, were in control of that power over the masses. Much like today.
Building a new Babylon would have been a big tourist attraction in Iraq. Who knew Saddam had a Disney streak?
ISIS blew up the ancient temple of Baal in Palmyra, a ruined city in the Syrian Dessert. The world was very upset with ISIS for destroying this ancient archaeological treasure. Palmyra was a city the world passed through in ancient times, with camels and donkeys loaded with goods from Asia on their way in long, endless caravans to Rome. So much history passed through those gates.
Until Obama and Hillary started blowing up Syria, it was a world heritage site, now, mostly a pile of rubble. But Demonrats really don't care about ancient culture, do they?
Acknowledging Palmyra MAY PERHAPS be the reason the Temple of Baal is being depicted at the conference. As a snub to ISIS.
