OK - I hate to get political, but after touring Europe the past 3 weeks and seeing some historic sites and artifacts I have to say - "The extremists in Timbuktu are F'N insane!"  And the rest of the World is just sitting around letting this happen...this is how the Nazi's gained their early successes...

This just disgusts me: Timbuktu's Sidi Yahia mosque 'attacked by Mali militants'
