We like facts and reliable sources here. Don't spread misinformation or try to change the historical record.
This is pretty hypocritical coming from Aljazeera. Most Muslim faiths destroy archaeological relics from other religions. We've had almost entire mountainsides blown up, destroying artifacts that went back millennia. For them to now go "Muh relics! Archaeology!"...yeah. Gonna fall on deaf ears.
I mean, don't get me wrong -- I don't think their stuff should be destroyed either, I'm just saying they aren't exactly arguing from a strong point.
Like every other religion, Muslims are not a monolith...
Al Jazeera hasn't destroyed any archaeological sites.
Meanwhile, Israel has destroyed hundreds of them
But al Jazeera is saying not to destroy MUSLIM sites.
What Muslims did to iran,Pakistan etc etc.
(U can downvote if u do not have some points)
They are saying that in this particular opinion piece focussed on this particular topic, yes. It's disingenuous to argue they only speak out for Muslim heritage when you could easily search their site and find many reports and commentaries on the destruction of historical sites all over the world.
