An interesting video regarding the Rome and European beliefs.
the winner always destroy the symbols, the books, the achievements of the defeated.
So according to Ar-Rum, Had the Romans won first and then be defeated? Or vice versa?
Why the believers will rejoice? Any thought?

That's true and the same attitude were / are shown by Caliphs and Sultans.
Referring to events when :
- Caliphates defeated the Persian Empire (demise of Zoroastrianism, rites and temples), Egypt (demise of Kemet traditions, scripts, monuments/pyramids and scrolls)
- Sultans defeated the Hindu/Buddhist kingdoms in India and Indonesia.
Or even as recent as what the Taliban did in Afghanistan.

To the extent that I don't see any difference between European / Middle Eastern organized religion / dogma / beliefs. They're one and the same, similar in characteristics and attitude, just different in label or name.
