This is good news. Not just for Americans, but also for the world which did not loose as much of its heritage as had been feared.

Even if that is true, it really doesn't affect the issue at hand. The U.S. command believed that the museum was being looted, and did nothing. It is this willful neglect that has angered the world.

Thousands of Iraqi artifacts recovered

[Which means the previous announcements that only 30 or so were missing was, uh, a lie. Or disinformation, if you prefer]

U.S. Customs agents have recovered nearly 40,000 manuscripts and about 700 artifacts believed to have been stolen from the National Museum in Baghdad last month. Officials reported thousands of pieces stolen from the museum as looting broke out as the Iraqi capital fell.
