PeterRS Posted 6 hours ago Posted 6 hours ago Under international law, in war cultural stes are protected. That I suspect is one reason why the US took Kyoto off the list of possible sites for the first nuclear bomb. Now in Iraq, the US and israel are paying no attention to international law. One of Teheran's cultural glories and one of its oldest historical sites, the Golestan Palace, is now said to be in virtual ruins. The world renowned Naqsh-e-Jahan Square in Isfahan, the glory of that city, has bombs falling nearby. These cultural sites are precious to all Iranians. In my view, bombing them will only hasten their resolve to continue fighting Trump and Netanyahu's war.
