I would argue that some of the so called looting could be classified as redistribution of wealth and others collateral damage and some outright pillaging...
stealing from the museums? Have you actually read that museums were pludered? eBay just changed their policies regarding the sale of artifacts this week after a Hawaiin historical record was attempted to be auctioned...I hope this will deter the sale of illegal Iraqi booty.....
