    How does the West worship Nimrod?

    My thoughts, exactly.

    Paired up to the public beheadings and other largely exhibitionist actions of ISIS- like constant videos of them making boasts and brags to other foreing countries... - it seems like they are trying to put on a "terror show" for the world to see. Kind of like constant shock-TV. And it's baffling because their supposed aspirations of conquering the Middle East, let alone waging war on even Europe, let alone the world, is utterly non-credible.

    As a long-term strategy, ISIS seems to be playing chicken with the world, and baiting them into some sort of rage-feuled attack on it...which it could not win.

    Nimrods Kingdom was babylon. The west symbolizes Babylon (Nimrods reign) and its rebellion (materialism) against the Almighty.

    Don't you love how self righteous Jonah likes telling people what they think and how they believe.

    I view these people destroying the history of Humanity as even less human than the Nazi's. They are a plague that needs to eradicated as such with IMO.

    If Allah was so put out by these statues then why did he leave them up for 3000 years ? These religious wing nuts are too painfully stupid to live and should be exterminated like rats.

    America is Symbolic of Babylon in the bible. A place of captivity and rebellion against Yah.

    That is a completely whacked comparison and you know it. Did the people who built those statures attack and/or kill this Iraqi's friends relatives children ?

    Come on...

    Maybe you don't see it, that's not me problem. Yah's children in the belly of the beast that is.

    "Yahweh" doesn't exist.

    Now get back to the topic that YOU created.

    They surely use terror as a means of power-politics, but I doubt that they want to bait the world “into some sort of rage-feuled attack”. Quite the contrary: I suspect they want use this terror as a kind of deterrent. Whether this tactic will work or provoke said attack is of course a different question.

    Well, I wouldn’t be surprised if these ISIS guys had no more knowledge on ancient Mesopotamian history than you and I do. But even if the ancient Assyrian site they destroyed had had anything to do with the Babylonians, I’d be very surprised if ISIS studied the Bible (!) much and took on board the usual Christian interpretation of “The Book of Revelation” in which Babylon is a symbol for the world-powers of the day (be it the Roman Empire or the USA).

    easily.

    common sense says the God, as described in the Bible, is a fantasy.

    its more logical to believe in Santa Claus.

    I wouldn't be surprised, it's a common parallel drawn. What I find intriguing is the notion of Isis ( deity) destroying Babylon, kind of prophetic in its own way

    They have declared war on non-Muslims, supposedly. How is this related to a deterrent?
