   Actually, the Eiffel's tower still stands because someone disobeyed direct   
   military order that was barbaric and made no military sense.   
      
   "Von Choltitz learned later that Model’s headquarters had received the order   
   from Hitler but did not pass it on. His staff had found it on the network and   
   given it to him. Some Germans in France agreed with von Choltitz and Speidel   
   that Paris should    
   not become a field of ruins."   
      
   The Holy Bible is not silent about the disobedience of this type: general   
   Joab of king David did a half-hearted job in executing David's commandment of   
   the unlawful census of the population, which provoked wrath and cause a   
   plague. Joab did not count the members of all tribes, because he loathed the   
   command. But this was not    
   exactly a military command in a war. The example of general von Choltitz of   
   Wehrmacht is a more contemporary example.   
   ...   
      
   “I’m thinking that as well,” von Choltitz replied. Later he wrote that   
   it was obvious that he and Dessloch agreed and “did not wish this senseless   
   and barbaric bombardment of the city.” But with their phone conversation   
   likely monitored by the    
   Gestapo, they had to talk to each other “tongue in cheek” so that   
   everything would seem to be in line with orders.
