...actually it was the Muzzies stealing their own cultural heritage in Baghdad, or blowing up thousand year old Buddahs and smashing statues in Bamiyan and Kabul...not American GIs.
But, by all means, tell lies about the Americans...it’s all so typical.
Yep!
But, a good lie is still "good"...no?
This was reported shortly after the war was sorted out.
I don't know why this story is important now.
"But it is all a far cry from the hitherto prevailing impression abroad in the world that the invasion has directly led to the mass destruction of Iraq's archaeological heritage."
Didn't the Iraqis remove their antiquities to other locations to prevent their theft before the war?
That was my understanding.
I'm sure there's a thread or ten right on this forum to address that very subject.
