I did not expect to see the editors take such a strong stand with ISIS and Mao's Cultural Revolutionists.

By all means, don't teach the reality behinds these monuments. (As the Eds manage to do in their posting). Instead, we should just knock them down, just like the abominations of Palmyra, and Nimrud. The lions of Raqqa. The cemetery of Confucius. The tomb of Wan Li.

Burn them all! 

And the libraries, too! 

Burn it all down!
