[FREE IRAN Project] In The Spirit Of Cyrus The Great

[kambiz]

Asare tarikhi, hoviyate melli hezaran saleye ma dar shorofe naboodi !!!

[Ba salam va arezooye tandorosti hamegi shoma,
Lotfan khabare narahat konandeh zir ra bekhanid; Byayid ta ejaze nadahim mirase farhangi, dastranje hezaran sal pedaran va ajdade ma, asare binazire tarikhi az bein beravand.]

Please read the following two messages and see if you can do anything (e.g. speking to members of Iranian Majlis or sending letters with signatures to them) to stop it:


Tehran, Iran, Aug. 31 – Iran is building a dam which once completed will destroy the 2,500-year-old historic ruins of tomb of the first Achaemenian king of ancient Persia.

The Sayvand Dam being constructed in the central Fars province will inevitably cause river waters to submerge Persepolis, the capital of ancient Persia, and Pasargard, the site of the mausoleum of the first Persian conqueror Cyrus the Great.

The dam which is near completion is some eight kilometres from Pasargard and 50 kilometres from Persepolis, according to an official in Iran’s Cultural Heritage Organisation.

The dam is to start operation in early 2006.

Water built up from the dam would destroy the historic sites which contain magnificent artefacts about ancient Iran’s heritage and have buried underground much of Persian civilisations’ hidden secrets.

Cyrus the Great, believed to have been the first king to have introduced a universal declaration of human rights, lived from 580-529 BC.

The point is it will be shameful for us especially toward future generations that we (as educated people) let this obvious mistake to take place.

May God give wisdom to our leaders and does not let our priceless heritages to be destroyed.
