How many religious people have you seen do that? I was 20 there.

What do you mean by protected Julius? Those are Unesco world heritage sites besides that local people have a very deep respect for the sites.

There is a word in Greek bostani, which is used to define sth about the plants (i cannot remember exactly), but it has to do with plants.

EDIT:Now that i looked in Turkish voc,it comes from Turkish bostan, relevant definition with Greek.It must be a Persian word. Turkish have a lot of them.

zagros, they have? they destroyed the remnants of a fire temple in Chaloos a few months back and demolished an ancient bridge with Zoroastrian design dated back to Median times, Unesco isnt doing anything, same with what happened in Oman--even the founder of the Persian Empire's tomb is being destroyed with humidity and the tombs of Darius, Xerxes and etc are going down the drain. what can the Iranian people do with the mandates of Khameni? alas a world's cultural heritage might be lost after awhile. but there is no doubt local people protect this sites, i just wish more iranians would do so.

Ive read what the ayatollah wrote when he was still alive he was much against Irans pre-islamic past.

but here is what I am suggesting, in ankor wat, they dont let the monuments be touched by human hands because of deterioration, the protection of the monuments in Iran are not being protected, even in susa, people could enter it without jurisdiction, two pillars were destroyed a few months back by vandals or probably prescribed by the real leader of iran. the terakato warriors are isolated against the heat in a warehouse, they control the heat, they fix it up and etc, in Iran, that would be awesome to do. nobody is watching the place out, you dont have guards posted, there are places in the world that are much younger and being preserved better. I dont know, a pity really...

With that kind of gesticulation and facial expression?  Only akhonds go on the manbar.  The mosque was dead, so to speak, so we decided to have some fun.
