Out of respect for other posters, I will post the link and not the image.....notice how it looks like a canoe, upside down of course.

That's fucked up. Might want to put up a warning on that one bud.

I will add more of a warning but I did say I wouldn't post the actual image out of respect.

There, now we can be friends again.

ISIS is now destroying art and statues in Syria, all 6 world heritage sites have been damaged. I may change my stance on these fuckers. Maybe we do need to treat them like ants and just eradicate all of them. Bastards

So you were cool with the beheadings and burning people alive but not with destroying things?

Yea, I know his comment came across that way and yet I understand his sentiment and I suppose we all have a point of no return and maybe this was his.

Humans and art are not equivalent. The destruction of historic objects that are thousands of years old is just one more level of inhumanity.

I know but the resident hippie lettuce promoter sets himself up as such an easy target sometimes that I can't resist. Sure, the wanton destruction of priceless artifacts is barbaric ignorance but there are plenty of reasons other than that to want to wipe them off the face of the earth.

True, true, true. I was "there" a long time ago but I admit to a new "pang" of sadness when I first saw this story. The shit was 2,000 years old. When we are gone, this is the kind of thing that is left behind to tell a story. To destroy it, is to once again, devalue human existence.
