Bam was one of most beautiful city of Iran ...
" Kerman, Dec 26, IRNA -- Governor General of Kerman province Mohammad
Ali Karimi said the 6.3-Richter scale earthquake in the southeastern
city of Bam early on Friday destroyed 60 percent of residential areas
of the city. "

Helping with financial aid w/out strings attached in these most trying of times for the Iranians of Bam will go in the right direction towards a changing of prejudice. Probably a good start in our "anti-terror" campaign. It would be money well spent IMHO.

This is why we have building codes. a similar sized earthquake hits the US and 2 people die. Hopefully the survivors will realize they lost their friends and family because a theocratic government keeps them in the dark ages.

Yo, Frog-child, they have mud and sticks to build with.  It isn't about the building code, so just say a prayer for them and let it go.
