I agree with you skunk. You have clearly shown me that America is falling into the fallacy of European imperialism. Evil Republican imperialist have obviously helped relocate treasures lost in looting and then appointed an Italian to put together a show of these treasures to be seen by even more evil Americans. Why if those stupid Americans saw these cultural heirlooms they might even appreciate Iraqi heritage and history. We all know how horrible that would be. To make matters worse, the museums which would show these treasures would bring in money to the Bagdad Museum so that it could restore it's buildings. What a nefarious plan!
In case you missed it, sarcasm was intended in the preceding statements.
In the United States almost all museums are privately sponsored or sponsored by local communities and not the national government. Are you sure that the Bagdad Muesuem was a national museum? What if it was titled to Saddam Hussein's family, should we ask Husseins's daughters for permission?
The reality is that I'm saddened by so many posting in this forum who delight in believing the worst not only of the American government but its people as well. We are accused of not understanding other nations or cultures but the accusers seem to be no better informed and also seem to have gotten their understanding of American life and culture from movies and TV, which is no more real than a fairy tale.
