[Alouette]

it's written on a stone slab which is the Louvre, in Paris, and it hasn't been looted yet.

Of course it has been looted. BY THE FRENCH!

"Looters entered this building while American tanks were on the street," said Jabir Khalil, chairman of Iraq's state board of antiquities, standing in front yard of the museum. "They could have protected this building." HHHHHHMMMMM????
Read "The Spector of War"in May/June 2003 Archaeology Magazine, page 14.....Khalil Jaber, Antiquities Department Director said..."we are prepared....staff could "empty it's thirty-two rooms in less than twenty-two hours and move the collections to secret locations." Are the names the same? Because one belongs to the Ba'ath Party.
HHHHHMMMMM????
