Just a reminder that the #West destroyed #Iran ’s #progressive #democracy in 1953, deposing a leader beloved of the people, & installed a #dictatorship in his place.

The #US & #UK have been terrorizing that country for as long as any of us have been alive.

It’s sick.

Inside the North Transept chapel of Dryburgh Abbey, the image reveals soaring ribbed stone vaults and elegant, clustered columns of weathered red sandstone, with tall lancet windows filled with diamond-patterned glass casting a gentle light across the interior; prominent gravestones and a large stone tomb rest against the walls, their inscriptions partly faded, imbuing the historic space with a reverent and timeless atmosphere.

No radioactive material at the targeted sites: Iranian state media

IRNA news agency quotes an official with the country’s public broadcaster as saying: “There are no materials in these three nuclear sites that cause radiation.”

The comment suggests that Iranian authorities may have removed enriched uranium from the facilities before they were bombed.
