my heart is filled with sadness as I watch these images and the videos in the links below
Akkadian, Assyrian, Hatrene and Parthian antiques being destroyed, thousands of years of art history and most important human history done away ... the cradle of our Civilisation is bleeding
Islamic State 'destroys ancient Iraq statues in Mosul - BBC
ISIS fighters destroy priceless Iraq antiquities - CBS Canada - shows mroe destruction
New Islamic State video shows militants smashing ancient Iraq artifacts
Partho-Hatrene sculpture when still intact
Shame - it seems there is only one true 'faris' in the Middle East - king Abdullah II of Jordan. Where are the others?
