Actually, the original story was 170,000 objects. Here is a particularly hysterical story on it: Now, together with approximately 170,000 other objects: statues, stele, figurines, vases, cups, diadems, clay tablets inscribed with everyday accounts as well as with hymns, myths, and epic poems, it has been brutally ripped from its shelf and has very likely disappeared forever. The pillaging of the Baghdad Museum is a tragedy that has no parallel in world history; it is as if the Uffizi, the Louvre, or all the museums of Washington D.C. had been wiped out in one fell swoop. Some compare the event to the burning of the Alexandria Library. The full range of losses will probably never be known because the catalog records were scattered and destroyed and the living record of more than eight thousand years of human history has been erased in two days. hnn.us

BUSH LIES DEPT.: CNN Poll Show No One Believe the Thief-In-Chief any longer. Re: This story will go the way of the 17,000 (15, really) looted museum pieces... CNN ran a poll yesterday, the question was "Whom do you blame for the mistake in the president's State of the Union address on Iraq?" 93% of the respondents said that King George is guilty. 2% said it was the Brits and 5% said it was the CIA. BUSH is a liar. Source: whatreallyhappened.com [[Scroll down to see results.]]
