The Islamist suffers from psychological complex

These Islamists basically suffer from inferiority complex. In their eyes, destroying these historical monuments is something akin to proving the superiority of Islam over other religions. Above all , it is their hatred towards Pre-Islamic cultural heritage, that is the root cause of such barbaric actions. In my opinion ,they suffer from some sort of paranoia that by destroying Pre-Islamic heritage sites they can deny the past & can prove the superiority of Islam over other religions.
