Shiraz has a central place in the eyes of many of us this season.

It's the city where the Bab declared His mission on May 22nd - 23rd 1844 in a house that was a site of pilgrimage for Baha'is until 1979 when it was destroyed.

It was the city where Mona Mahmudnizhad along with nine other women were hanged for her beliefs in 1983... three months earlier Mona's own father had been executed. She was buried in the Baha'i cemetery in Shiraz which is now slated to be destroyed and desecrated.

And it is in that city where we are now awaiting the convictions of the fifteen Baha'is.
