ALERT: Afghan Treasures in Danger

The Guardian Reports: "Western experts now fear that the Taliban are melting down Afghanistan's fabled Bactrian treasures - 20,000 gold objects about 2,000 years old. The Bactrians, who settled in northern Afghanistan, were a Greek dynasty founded by Alexander the Great."

AAR: This may be the famous TelaTapa treasures that were said to be sealed and kept in the Presidential Palace in Kabul. Destruction of this unique Afghan heritage will be a disaster equivalent to the destruction of the Buddha statues or even worse. Afghans and the free world need to rise up, use whatever means possible and put a stop to this monstreous tragedy by ignorant extremists who follow the orders of terrorists and the Bin-Laden-Pakistani intelligence network to turn Afghanistan into a cultural wasteland for their demonic goals.
