Looting Of Iraqi Museums By The West by No2Atheism(m): 3:32am On Oct 02, 2009
It is my observation that it seems the White people have a plan to try to either:

a. write themselves into the history of Assyria, Babylon, Mesopotamia

or

b. simply hide something about their history

or

c. simple greed.

This is because reports point to the fact that Iraqi museums were more or less looted with the aid of the US Military. This sounds eerily close to what happened in Egypt. I was literarily shocked when i discovered the amount of books burnt or destroyed in Egypt by invaders. Men Africa has really suffered a lot and almost for no reason other than the psychotic behaviours of other races.

Europeans and other race of people, looted and burnt a great number of libraries in ancient Egypt. Africa lost a great deal of knowledge and have never been the same again since that time.

Europeans in form of Greeks then plagiarised Egyptian knowledge and claimed to be their own. . . . unfortunately, Africans cannot really proof otherwise simply because most of the stolen artefacts are still in the hands of the thief.

What is your opinion about the Looting of Iraqi historical sites and museums by the West.

they're looking for the secret to world domination.

That is a price you pay for a loss of war. They plunder and looth all your treasures including artefacts. The Bini people suffered a similar fate in 1887, and in 1901, the Igbo of Arochukwu. This stolen treasures are in British custody till date.
