ishtargates:He was the head of antiquities for the ancient city of Palmyra for more than 40 years. When daesh (the so-called Islamic state) took control of the region, he refused to tell them where he had hidden priceless ancient artifacts (to keep them safe from the group). For his actions, they labeled him an idolater and an apostate; and they had him publicly beheaded. He was brave and loyal unto death, refusing to betray his beloved city. He chose to die rather than bow to the terror group. Thus, may he feast with the gods and the great heroes in the afterlife! And may daesh be trampled and crushed until they are no more than ash and dust! - Keith A. Fair -- source link
