Not to be outdone by Cheney's looting, the Fat Cat antique collectors want to loot and pillage too.

Apparent lobbying by American art dealers to dismantle Iraq's strict export laws has heightened fears about the looting of the country's antiquities as order breaks down in the last stages of the war

I am looking for something from a real news source on this.

The problem I have, is I think the Bush WH borders on a propaganda machine. For example, did you notice after we went into Afganistan, whenever a fight broke out the media reported it as US vs. "al quida" forces. We were NOT fighting al-quida in afganistan. We were fighting the taliban, who were guilty in that they allowed al-quida to train in their homeland, but that is all. It is bogus journalism to blatantly refer to just any old muslim army "al quida".

All these reports of WMDs in iraq which never get confirmed by a mainstream media outlet (non - FOX) in the US remind me of that.
