THE RELIGION OF PEACE REALLY SPHINX

Allow me briefly to quote out beloved Nincompoop in Chief to educate you a bit on Islam. As Barry "Choom" Obama said:

"[America and Islam] ...share common principles of

...JUSTICE...

 

 

...AND PROGRESS,...

 

...TOLERANCE...

 

...and the DIGNITY OF ALL HUMAN BEINGS."

So what are the fun-loving Middle-Eastern Hippies of Peace, Hope and Love up to now? Well, in the spirit of tolerance and progress, the wacko clerics who've come to power in Egypt are demanding the Pyramids of of Giza be destroyed.

Yeah, right Bawb. You're getting out of hand again. Well, apparently so is the Washington Post these days as well:

"Radical Muslims want to tear down Egypt's pyramids and take over the world. The least the rest of us can do is take them seriously.

Islamist political victories in Egypt have invigorated the debate in certain circles over what to do with the country’s historical sites, or as the extremists call them, the symbols of pagan idolatry. The most pious Muslim theologians do not see the ancient statues, carvings and pyramids as important tourist destinations so much as affronts to their beliefs. Bahraini Sunni leader Abdal-Latif al-Mahmoud called on the Egyptians to “destroy the Pyramids and accomplish what [Egypt's Muslim conqueror] Amir bin al-As could not.” Abdel Monein Al-Shahat, a leading member of Egypt's radical Nour party, suggested that should the pyramids be too difficult to dismantle, structures that have stood for five millennia ought at least be covered in wax to hide them from view."

 That's just the tip of the bloody iceberg. Read the REST OF THE STORY here.

To those who might say this crap is just too crazy to happen, we need only remind you of what happened to the 5th Century BAMIYAN BUDDHAS in 2001.

 

So, if seeing this Wonder of the World is on your Bucket List,  you might want to consider getting around to it post haste before progress and tolerance overtake it.
