Ok, so the Sunni Nutters are now borrowing Shia history, and I thought they hated Shias above all else. The Sunni extremists are sooooo stupid

Now, the latest propaganda is that ISIS knew they were fake all along. They smuggled the real statues out of the country and sold them, but not before manufacturing replicas of the statues and placing them in the museums for the video.

I think the freedom to reject Islam as a load of rubbish might prove that wrong.
While using whatever tools that come to hand may be permitted - it's a reminder of their backwardness. If god is on your side there's no need to ride the coattails of your enemies.

It is an opportunistic religion. Survival is the name of the game. Remember the Marines were forbidden to even enter a mosque lest some religious edict was violated? The same people would gladly raze that mosque to the ground if it meant “saving" Islam.

Funny. That explains why such grotesque things like child brides, rape, men "thighing" little boys and infants to get off, having sex with goats, wiping your butt with your bare hand, and female genital mutilation are all allowed in Islam.

Not so, what about that enormous stone statue that was one of the ancient gates, it's a winged man who has a lion body. Video shows them dismantling it. Doubt they made a fake one of those, it was huge and must have weighed several tons.
