In response to my article The End for Thousands of Years of Egyptian Culture, reader solinski from Norway asks:

Demolition of the Pyramids, atrocities in Syria, bombs in Irak, Pakistan or Afganistan, honestly, who gives a sh*t, these people are muslims and do, what muslims do, and so long they are doing these things in their own countries, who cares?

In part, dear solinski, you are quite right, as long as they confine their activities to killing themselves, no one should care; however when they start destroying monuments and temples that are part of the world's treasures such as 1800 year-old Bamiyan Buddhas, then everyone should be concerned. Just because Muslims infest a country does not mean they have the right to destroy treasures that belong to the world. If we remain silent when the pyramids are covered with wax burqas, then there will be no voices when they dismantle the Eiffel Tower, remove Monet and Rembrandt from museums, and Islamicize Mickey and Minnie.
