Until now not much information about the catastrophal quake in Bam is available but according the news the impact must be desastrous. The fact that the Iranian government was pleading for help says everything. To give an impression what mankind maybe lost in a matter of seconds I post some sites with pictures and information about Arg-e-Bam.
We should do everything to help the Islamic Republic of Iran to overcome this tragedy.
