According to several reports in the Arabic media, prominent Muslim clerics have begun to call for the demolition of Egypt’s Great Pyramids—or, in the words of Saudi Sheikh Ali bin Said al-Rabi‘i, those “symbols of paganism,” which Egypt’s Salafi party has long planned to cover with wax. Most recently, Bahrain’s “Sheikh of Sunni Sheikhs” and President of National Unity, Abd al-Latif al-Mahmoud, called on Egypt’s new president, Muhammad Morsi, to “destroy the Pyramids and accomplish what the Sahabi Amr bin al-As could not.”
And you thought I was joking!
Stupid Egyptian Muslims. Had they called for the destruction of Israel, western socialists would've shrugged. The pyramids might actually inspire some will to oppose them.
From the Frontpagemag comments:
Islam is a virus. People who encounter it either die or become carriers
Aptly put, that. Is there no end to its lunacy?

Islam is a virus.
Marines are the cure.
I wasn't joking...

Why are we allowing the scummy foam floating over the edges of our leftie law schools and socialism faculties, to make their living with their "Refugee Industrial Complex"?
All they are doing is infiltrating our society with planeload after planeload of fundamentally incompatible cult like masses. And they are getting rich in the process.
True refugees are those people being repressed in majority mohammedan countries.
Bring only them, and our children will thank you for leaving them a safer society.

You been smoking that hashish??? And Mao loved democracy,Lenin cheered for kulaks,and Mogoatboy(p1ss been upon him)was just a mis-understood paedophile.I'm sure you meant Islam is a pieces religion.
But then,what can you really say about a political religion whose cultists are so insecure with their "prophets" teachings(?),they have to destroy everything else to make themselves feel good?
Illiterate ignorant peasants and slightly less ignorant hedge-row priests have no respect for their own history.
Muslims held on to the light of civilization against the darkness when the Roman Empire fell. They were the cutting edge of medicine, science and arts. How did this happen? Study, reading something other than the Koran, thinking outside the orthodoxy.
Now? Caves and hovels, more akin to the stabled than human.
The moderates leave for whatever other port is available out of the holes the 'pious' created. The only people left are the zealots.
Why should we expect them to have any respect for any other cultures history. They have no respect for themselves...and rightly so. Filth.
That this could even be contemplated angers me.
What marc said at 12:59.
This is why the left makes common cause with radical Islam, as they both want mankind to go back to the stone age.
Nuke+Mecca, it's overdue.
Let me guess they are going to dig up the Pharaohs; and then run home to mummy.
So the Egyptian Muslims are afraid of Egyptian pharaohs who have been dead for thousands of years?
Please get over it...so ridiculous it is laughable. That ought to kill off what is left of the tourist industry...

Some have labeled this problem "The Clash of Civilizations", but now it seems more accurate to call it Civilization vs. Barbarism.
They have 1.2 Billion potential jihadis all over the world to call on, and Billions of dollars in OPEC oil money to fund the jihad that won't run out for another 30 years.
Strong national economies, along courage and a grim determination are required for the West's survival.
Our chances at this point are 50/50.
If we are going to survive as a western civilisation, we must insist their "refugees" are settled in countries like their own.
It will only end badly if we follow failed European immigration trends.
The precautionary principle, anyone?
Funny that those who subscribe to that in regards to global warming, will not consider it in the instance where it can truly save rational societies.
Our chances are far less than 50/50 unless we start DOING something about it. At home, in the US and abroad.
If we do not start soon, and in earnest it will be over before it begins.

"And you thought I was joking!"
No I didn't.
There needs to be a credible threat here. Major antiquities badly damaged, and you have 48 hours to clear out Mecca before the nukes hit. Of course, this will never happen.
I say we should encourage it.
Millions of them out in the hot global-climate change sun,
working their ass off every day without food or water.
Probably take several hundred years and kill millions of them tearing down all the Pyramids.
Now,
If we can find a way to convince them that Allah wants Mount Everest destroyed-
Bingo
Islamic problem solved..
Or I guess the lady from UNESCO could give them a stern talking to.

Maybe Fatmah is a friend of new's.

I don't get it---is this NOT what the great white NDP wants?
6th wonder of the world is a impediment to the progressive New World Order??
I would love to go after the puppet masters, if I got the call, people wold die.
That's just not Politically Correct these days.

What's fascinating about this very predictable call is that the Western MSM still do not grasp the implication of the Mo Bro being a mainstream Islamic party/group: which is that Islam is radical. Full stop.
I would merely note that it is one's "Law Enforcement" who enable all of this swill. Pop enough pigs and the problem will stop rather quickly. That is the ONLY way to fix their predilection to not bother Preferred Species...
and whom shot the nose off the Sphinx?
scratch the pyramids off the bucket list.
they can blow them up much easier. and they can then use the film for recruiting impossibly stupid youths to blow themselves up in our hometowns.
The Isrealis should have turned the country into glass when they had the excuse. the consequences of a job half done...
"Muslims held on to the light of civilization against the darkness when the Roman Empire fell. They were the cutting edge of medicine, science and arts."
Actually, no they weren't. Many historians are now starting to believe that Islam was the cause of the dark ages, because through piracy they cut off trade throughout the mediterranean. As well, any of the inventors they cite were not intelligent because they were Muslims. They were that way despite Islam. In fact, none were Arabs. They were from conquered races. And may have adopted the facade of being Muslims to save their necks.
I see three possibilities here.
1) Keep the status quo.
2) Blow them up,or tear them down. This will infuriate millions.
3) Hold them for ransom,a Blazing Saddles kidnapping. They can extort money from the UN and other sympathetic organizations to ensure their existence.
I can quite easily see the CBC headline " Harper's Conservatives extend the arts and culture war overseas ",or some such spin.
I don't think that Islam was the cause of the 'dark ages', though its aggressive militancy might, just might, have assisted, merely assisted, in the rise of the Church as a political imperialist power. This Church, acting as a political rule rather than intellectual and moral centre, set up the infrastructure of the dark ages.
But, I adree with Irwin Daisy that the few, very few, Muslim intellects were curious and wise not because of Islam but in spite of it - and as he points out, they might have simply adopted Islam out of political necessity. Remember, Islam rejects reason, rejects individual freedom of thought, rejects science, rejects innovation.
As for destroying the pyramids, I doubt that can go beyond rhetoric. Tourism, along with the Nile tolls, is the major income for Egypt. The major cause of the overthrow of Mubarak was the extreme poverty of the majority in Egypt. Egypt cannot afford the ideological niceties of Islamist fancies.
Atavist, barbaric, ignorant, self destructive and cruel - this seems to be the output of Arab spring.
Sounds like the brotherhood is working with dr. evil.
Never a good crusade around when you need one.

I see you made no mention of the Jews. Guess they're still fair game for you fu*king savages.
But but but...!!! The British are a bunch of Imperialist B@$t@rd$ for looting Egypt of antiquities!!!
Let us all now send up a little prayer of thanks for the British Museum, and for Queen Victoria. Because if these Egyptian idiots have their way, the only place you'll be able to see ancient Egyptian artifacts (or Greek statues, or Tibetan payer wheels, or Afghan burial tombs etc.) will be in London. (Assuming the Labour Party commies don't burn it all down in a fit of utter incompetence.) Amen.
crabstampede said: "Sounds like the brotherhood is working with dr. evil."
No way dude. Dr. Evil would turn the Pyramids into his Secret Lair and put a frickin' giant laser on top.
ET said: "Egypt cannot afford the ideological niceties of Islamist fancies."
That's very true. But the same can be said of Russia in 1912, which could ill afford the inherent insanity of the Bolsheviks. Fast forward 100 years, Russia is still a frigged-up mess where people either drink themselves to death or leave. Mostly to become strippers. Which tells you something about how it was back home, nyet?
I think the Egyptian Army will just kill all the Mo-Bros, mow down a few crowds in Cairo and regain their iron grip on power. That's the most likely outcome here because basically they're just mobsters with an investment to protect, and that's how mobsters roll. Shoot first and shoot later, never mind the questions.
Remembering of course that my opinion and a buck fifty will get you a coffee at Timmie's. ~:)
Phantom, it was 1917. :-)
Egypt and other Middle East countries have been demanding that the British Museum return ancient artifacts such as the Rosetta Stone to them.
Thank god the museum refused.
Not to often one can watch an entire nation become decivilized via Islam, typically each generation emerges more advanced than the one before it but in Egypt's case they seem to be breeding them to be citizens of the seventh century.
Phantom, wasn't the Iranian military in control under the Shah yet when Khomeini took over the military quickly became subservient to him?

Maybe we should take the Attitude of "easy come, easy go"
I'm ready to give up on these people and squeeze the trigger. Noting to loose, these assholes squander their Oil Gold, we just step back and work the PROBLEM.
Us vs them, OMG THATS RACIST scream the Liberals.
NDP just say Unions are the answer, NOT. give us more money, WE WILL PAY YOU OFF.

The left has had their Arab spring; as usual they don't like the side effects, especially when it appears to affect them as well.
The best we can do is not import Islam and protect ourselves, but the left won't let that happen. They are humanities enemy.
Story is fake apparently...

I don't care Jeff, these screaming hijabs are target practice.
Fuck my open mind, it's closed.
Business finished, chain mail over the windows, DONE.
The Brotherhood is a fairly fractious bunch with a large pro-business 'pragmatic' contigent that will not allow the pyramids to be destroyed. In the 1800s or so, I believe it was a Sheikh that damaged the Sphinx's nose. The locals hanged him for it.
LAS, a local parish priest who visited Egypt and the Holy Land attested that the Muslims did nothing to preserve historical artefacts.
Taking it from the horse...
Osumashi K >
LAS would rather go there aka Anderson Cooper and see for himself, thank you very much.
LAS, you go boy, don't let a few "non-moderate" muslims get in your way, mmmmmMMMMMMM.
Nuke 'em.
