Sword proves reading books waste of time

This is very embarrassing for me. You see, I spent months reading; From Time Immemorial 440 pages by Joan Peters, The Middle East 387 pages by Bernard Lewis, and History of Israel 1020 pages by Howard Sachar. All wasted time and effort.

Along comes Sword of Islam & The Babies of Beslan; he reads two pages from the Internet and again proves me wrong. I think that I should burn all my books, and stick to obtaining all my knowledge from the Internet. Why if I do that, I may become as wise and knowledgeable as the Sword and with any luck I can begin lampooning people who read those silly, foolish and unreliable books.
