If you want to judge a civilization, look at the cemetries and how they honour their dead. This shows the end of a former civilized country.

Talk about being paranoid. This regime is even afraid of the deceased!!!! Can it get any more uncivilized?

So sad, so tragic for the Iranian authorities to tolerate such abuse. Not for one moment do I believe that the Iranian people actually sanction this barbarity. Someday in the places where these desecrations occurred, beautiful gardens will bloom . . .for the pleasure of all.
