Seven years ago, the archaeologist Khaled al-Asaad was beheaded by ISIS at the age of 83. He had been head of Antiquities at Palmyra for 40 years. His “crime” was to have hidden the artifacts in Palmyra’s museum. Tortured, he refused to disclose where he hid them. A modern hero. https://t.co/uBfmhydEdv
