One of the most surreal moments of my life was turning on the TV and watching ISIS destroy the same ancient Assyrian ‘Lamassu’ Winged-Bulls I visited while on deployment to Mosul, Iraq in 2010
A crime against humanity 💯
Never forget, someone paid $$ to have them destroyed…
The crime against history most don’t know about…
ISIS destroyed Assyrian archeology.
They burnt Aramaic manuscripts.
They blew up Old Testament history including the Tomb of Jonah.
They erased ancient Churches, driving Assyrians out of Nineveh.
How much was lost?
