Please show where I have blamed the US for the looting of Iraq's museums.

Please show me where I said that you blamed the U.S. What makes you think I was even talking about your posts? Sorry to break it to you, but I didn't even read any of them.

By the way, I cringed at you calling archeological treasures from the cradle of civilization, going back thousands of years, including the code of Hammurabi, "pottery". Ouch.

I don't place much (any?) value in the physical possession of these. They will all crumble due to time anyway. The "value" of them was what they taught us, not their actual existence. Most of them are still around and if it pains you that they're sitting in some private collection in Saudi Arabia rather than being on public display in Baghdad, then I'm sorry. Personally, I couldn't care less.
