Exactly

Romans did nothing wrong. Carthage was asking for it.

>>2542892
Carthage was definitely the bad guy here I mean the Romans were just defending themselves against the Muslim hordes who had been flooding Christian lands. You can google it, North African Muslims took over the land by force and then they started the original slave trade by kidnapping white seafarers and selling them as slaves in the Sahara.

American history classes are such fucking bullshit, they just ignore this key historical fact.

Either /pol/, bait, or referencing The Matrix.

If the redpill requires me to think islam predates mohammed I'll pass.

>>2544638
I'm actually curious about this. What were the dominant religions in the middle east before Islam?

>>2544646

Carthage wasn't even in the middle east. But anyway, it depends on the period. Immediately before Islam it was Christianity. There were plenty of Jews. The Romans brought their gods, the hellenes brought their gods, then there was the semitic religions, like ba'al worship.

even Romaboos have to acknowledge how much fucking overkill the 3rd punic war was.

>>2544912

How so?
Do you know what kind of people they were dealing with?

They sacrificed children to the god of death

The only thing Romans did wrong was not exterminate Carthage earlier

>>2542912
AND PERHAPS HE'LL BRING WITH HIM AN ARMY OF ELEPHANTS!

>>2545655
>They sacrificed children to the god of death

They dedicated still born babies to Ba-al. It's gross, but it wasn't child sacrifice by any means.

roman emperors were shiite muslims, hence their control over nature

fuicking retarded cuck, the romans were based bros that defended western culture against muslim paganism form the middle east. i wish we could go back in time and give them nukes.

>>2546076
i know it's satire but i still would agree unironically

carthaginians are logically the ancestors of modern day tunisians, so we can assume they look the same
have you ever seen a tunisian ?
it's perfectly rational to hate them and be glad that rome won

not to mention how romans already spoke almost the same language we speak and lived on the same land we live on and in all likelyhood are our ancestors too, i don't see how it's /pol/ related at all that people would prefer them

Stop being influenced by Hollywood. Carthage was a super power at the time and a greater threat to Rome than the Gauls, Germans or Parthians.
