Members of the Nour (The Light) Salafist party, which won 20 per cent of the vote in recent elections, are talking about putting an end to the ‘idolatry’ represented by the pyramids.
This means destruction – along the lines essayed by the Afghan Taliban who blew up the Banyam Buddhas – or ‘concealment’ by covering them with wax. Tourists would presumably see great blobs rather than the perfectly carved steps.
Brazilians for the Mummy’s!
Hee hee!
I,M surprised they just don’t blow them up.
Just wait, they may…..
Next time someone suggest returning patrimony/artifacts ‘stolen’ by explorers and such, the response shall be “Fuck you, and the camel you’re riding”. Then suggest lessons on re-civilizing.
Cheers
If they’re going to blow up the pyramids, they should practice by blowing up the Aswan Dam π
