If we have special forces to protect oil fields, we could have protected this museum in a similar fashion. If the story is true, it is catastrophic for study of near-eastern and world history.

Too bad the French and German antiquarians weren't along for the ride to Baghdad (with troops from their countries, of course). We could have used their help.

I doubt the items are lost or destroyed. They are valuable. They'll most likely show up.

Maybe an investigation will have to come first. But, that's okay.

It's more important to assign the (finite number of) soldiers to protect people's lives and the records of Saddam's regime.

Historians would have a wonderful time in Saddam's archives.
