(Japan Times) When ISIS Jihadists invaded the Central Library of Mosul in January, they were on a mission to destroy a familiar enemy–other peoples ideas.

Residents say the Jihadist Thugs smashed the locks that had protected the biggest repository of learning in the northern Iraq town, loading around 2,000 books which included: Children’s stories, Poetry, Philosophy, volumes on Sports, Health, Culture and Science, into 6 pick-up trucks, leaving only Islamic texts.

A bearded Islamic Fascist said, “These books promote infidelity and call for disobeying Allah, so they will be burned.”

Since ISIS seized a third of Iraq and neighboring Syria, it has sought to ‘purge society’ of everything that doesn’t conform to Islam, it has already destroyed many archaeological relics, deeming them pagan–books now have been increasingly on the firing line.

On the 25 July, I wrote here and posted photographs of ISIS Fascists desecrating and then blowing up the Prophet Jonah’s tomb in Iraq.

Following the U.S. led invasion of Iraq in 2003 that toppled Saddam Hussein, residents near the ‘Central Library’ in Mosul, hid some of its centuries old manuscripts in their homes to prevent their theft or destruction by looters but this time, ISIS has made the penalty for such actions, death.

Presumed destroyed, are the ‘Central Library’ collection of Iraqi newspapers dating to the early 20th century, maps and books from the Ottoman Empire and book collections, contributed by around 100 of Mosul’s establishment families.

Day’s after the ‘Central Library’ ransacking, Islamic Fascists broke into the ‘University of Mosul’s Library’ making a bonfire out of hundreds of books on science and culture, destroying them in front of students.

A ‘University of Mosul’ professor who spoke on the condition of anonymity fearing for his welfare, said the Islamic Fascists started wrecking collections of other libraries recently, he reported particularly heavy damage to the archives of a Sunni Muslim library, the library of a 265 year old Latin Church and Monastery of the ‘Dominican Fathers’ and the Mosul Museum library with works dating back to 5000 BC

The professor said that ISIS appeared determined to change the face of this city…by erasing its iconic buildings and history.”
