Oh for fark's sake, they aren't going to blow up the farking pyramids. Egypt needs the tourism to function as a country. If you have nothing but a farking desert to come see, you're not going to get a lot of tourists

Phoenix would like to have a word with you... But the rest of the world has not heard of Arpaio, Brewer, Pierce, possibly McCain, but real locals try to ignore him and hope he goes away. If you wiped Sun City and Snottsdale off the map, this place might actually be sane... Oh and Mesa too... did not get a job because it was "mormon" owned... and I was some sort of heathen... Screw it this place is F&CKED big time...

The Pyramids at Giza had a smooth limestone shell, little of which remains because it was stripped for building material long ago.

It's not impossible to destroy a pyramid, it just might piss off Yum! corporation which has a KFC across the street.

yes they would. Your definition of "functioning as a country" and theirs are two different things. And, no, they don't NEED tourism.

I'd like to see the Pyramids restored. Right now their outter layer's missing. They look like shiat. Restore them and watch your nation grow, Egypt.

"They" don't want tourism incase you haven't noticed Egypt has been taken over by islamic fascist.

Weaver95: s of VERY large rocks. And that's just the pyramids themselves. that's not including what's in the valley of kings or the Sphinx, which is another great huge pile

.

Use artillery to undermine a few spots halfway up and start a massive rock slide. In no time at all you could have a massive pile of blocks. Since they're a slow bunch I'd say it would take them a week, two weeks tops.

Civ V now has religions in the newest expansion, but I don't think any of them require you to destroy your ancient wonders. You would lose your 25% worker bonus.

Weaver95: i'm not sure they CAN destroy those things. they're fricking huge.

Destruction is simpler than construction. If it was built, it can be torn down.

Anyway, you can see the damned things from the local KFC, so "meh".

Lionel Mandrake: A Christian Post article based on FrotPage Mag?

Puh-leeeeze

Well to be fair, the front page article was based on the blog of an Islamic extremest who is basically their equivalent of the time cube guy.

So there is at least one person, (who is in Bahrain?) who wants to destroy the pyramids. So the story is totally legit; that dude has a plan.

well one is TRIVIAL to make, including getting the ingredients. The other is a bit more of a pain.
I am NOT saying that I have ever made NG, but after reading the anarchist cookbook and a year of honors chem in college, I am surprised that there arent more suicide bombers in the US.

It's just a bunch of blocks. THey don't have to blow it up, they could just "dismantle" it. Of course that would require a hell of a lot of manpower. Maybe in the form of forced manual labor of some kind?

How do you know what Mursi is? I don't see the military allowing it to happen, but bear in mind that Egyptian Muslims ALREADY destroyed the pyramids. They stripped them of their smooth white limestone exterior (except way up high) and used the stones to build mosques and palaces. Imagine how beautiful they'd be if they were intact.

I never even got why the goa'uld would need a landing platform for their ships. They only used them like 3 times in the series and movies combined. Just bury the gate and c4 the ring platforms and we should be good to go.
Worst case scenario, wire the pyramids to blow if the ships start coming close.

Ha! An Egyptian friend of mine said that the military, it's councils, and the equivalent of their Supreme Court are so tied up with US aid, tourist/research grants and US arms funding that they've neutered the office of the presidency as much as they can. The only thing holding that country together is the Military. They're the only ones with level heads for once. Their military wanted mubarak out and they got it but phase two of the plan to have a US friendly president didn't work out. Now they deal with it.
