Inside Iran's Sacred Defense Museum And Daily Life

TEHRAN, IRAN - FEBRUARY 3: A sign marks the destroyed car, wrapped in a symbolic burial shroud, of Darioush Rezaienejad, an Iranian nuclear scientist assassinated on June 23, 2011, that is now on display with several others at the recently opened Holy/Sacred Defense Museum, a vast complex created by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) to commemorate the 1980s Iran-Iraq War in Tehran, Iran, on February 3, 2016. Full of war memorabilia, the museum venerates martyrdom- including the death of five nuclear scientists whose assassination Iran blames on Israel - and also offers a nationalist narrative that is gaining ground for the first time since Iran's 1979 Islamic Revolution.
