Looted artifacts back in Iraq
2010-09-08
BAGHDAD — Hundreds of Iraqi artifacts looted from museums and archaeological sites across the country — including a 4,400-year-old statue of an ancient king stolen during the US-led invasion — have been returned to Iraq and were displayed Tuesday.

Iraq is home to relics of the worldÂ’s most ancient urban civilizations. Its priceless heritage was plundered during the countryÂ’s wars and upheavals, and its precious antiquities sold to collectors abroad.

#2  The Who, What, When, Why, and Where seem to be missing from the original article. I expected more from the Khaleej Times.

Because the Who, What, When, Why, and Where would probably point their finger at Iraqis blowing the image that it was the US troops. It would be bad for propaganda.
