The Iranian mullahs do not deserve their lofty perches of power, and the deliberate destruction of these priceless treasures should be enough in and of itself for the Iranian people to finally rise up and dispatch the mullahs straight to hell courtesy of the end of a rope.
No, the destruction of such beautiful ruins requires them to die in a much more painful way...or so I think. ;)
Sometimes I wonder why we haven't just nuked Mecca and Medina by now... :-P
