What is worse amidst the Taliban blowing up Buddhist statues and the Spanish in Mexico with the pyramids? I am referring to the Spanish Christians in the 1500's and what they did to the city of Tenochtitlan. Both are tragic, but will go with Buddhist statues, because would have like to have seen them the most. |
