The magician never misses an opportunity.These items were not randomly chosen,each has a purpose and bears a signifigance to the them.There were similar reports in Mesopetamia(IRAQ) during the initial invasion of 03.
@darren i wonder if they are building something out of the pieces...

@AngryBloggers: Ignore those who make stupid comments. They are crying out for attention. There are many techniques an instigator would use to cause an uproar (such as race baiting). Politicians and TV personalities use these tactics all the time to draw the viewer to one side or the other during a discussion. Ignoring them does more damage than arguing.
Obama did it.
Wait till you see the list of missing US artifacts when he moves out of the White House!
I stole the whole loot. I have King Tux in my closet to keep it all company!
Flush the American Standard.
Is it true that Yuya and Yoda are dating?
It would do well for us to remember what happened in Baghdad in 2003 right after the U.S. led invasion of that country when the looters broke into the National Museum there and stole thousands of artifacts which will never be recovered. This the right-wing news media never talks about and never will!!!
Thank you RUFFNUTT for telling it like it is. The people in the right-wing news media don't because they're too busy catering to the right-wing thugs in Washington!!!
Quite true Cesar,quite true. I couldn't have said it better. Thank you.
If you're going to use my name, don't make me sound like a left-wing idiot!
