Most Missing Iraqi Antiquities Found in Secret Vault

Gee, another "secret" whatever. Can we trust it? c.i.

There were versions that the artifacts were stolen by the museum employees when there was a brief power vacuum in Baghdad. Americans were physically unable to prevent this in such a case since they have not yet established a civil administration. And if the Army units made any attempt to prevent looting by means of measures the Army may undertake, all the world would start accusing them in massacre of civilians. The fact that the U.S.-led civil administartion makes serious efforts to retrieve the stolen property and to return it to the museum proves that it is attempting to impose law and order on the country.

I am not sure this is entirely correct. I believe the Americans had appointed an Iraqi ex general as the "Governor", however the islamic clerics are really running the show.

How is that new computer going steissd?
