I think you are a Paranoid Wacko! You need to see a Dr. fast. . . you need help! Why can't you give the Iraqi people a little credit to think of doing it themselves? Your reasoning simply does NOT COMPUTE! Get help! Joe

All decisions come from Rumsfeld's office and the military has to like it or lump it. If there was any coordination that is where to look. I've already said I don't believe a museum would even be in the scope of the military war plan. I meant that the coordination came from within the Iraqi government. I still think the most likely scenario is that Rumsfeld ordered that the looting of government buildings not be stopped I don't think most people would take issue with that if it were true. You really should look at it from a perspective of being on the ground over there yourself in the heat of battle and see if you would worry about government buildings. I don't think I would. I don't know how to explain any coordination between our forces and the looters without scaring myself even more. That statement alone should cause you re-examine your theory. Especially given that most of us - at least the ones posting - think it's not a plausible one.
