Hawass had to go. He's too westernized and believes in preserving the artifacts of past. The cult of Islam will not tolerate anything but it's own version of history.
What always got to me was these Third World countries complaining that the West came in and "stole" their artifacts - some of which they didn't even know existed. At least in the Western museums they were taken care of.
"Back home", they are left to rot.
Same goes for our "native american" culture here. THIS is what I found at the Indian War Fort McDowell in Arizona.
