The post after yours is Arianna HuffinPuff...She is talking and not reading or paying attention .... again.... For instance..she didn't read this from your posted piece...or she wouldn't have put her foot in pooiedodo.. In the case of the ammunition dump, Herman knew firsthand that U.S. forces had just taken control of the area; Iraqi protestations they'd been detonating ordnance there for days were obviously lies. But it pointed to the conspiracy-theorizing that has driven much American reportage , such as the claim that 170,000 priceless artifacts had been looted from the Iraqi National Museum. "U.S. Army ignored alert on museum looting risk," ABC originally announced, while the BBC heralded "a loss to mankind" as American soldiers sat idly by. The number of ancient cultural items now missing is set at 33 -- and those were reportedly lifted as part of an "inside job" before U.S. troops even entered Baghdad, using keys and the assistance of museum curators apparently working for international art dealers.
