The Persepolis Tablets

An absurd judgement against Iran over a suicide bombing in 1997 has resulted in museums such as Chicago's Oriental Institute being threatened to have artifacts from their collections removed and sold to pay for reparations to the innocent victims of this terrorist act.

The American museums better ready themselves if this goes through as plenty of Iraq's citizens have an excellent case over the invasion of their country and killing of their civilians by the United states military in the current unnecessary war in that country.

State complicit terrorism is not just a phrase that applies to Iran alone.
