"Saddam Hussein embellished the site with his own structures"

"US blamed for role in damaging Babylon" by Associated Press | July 10, 2009
BAGHDAD - UNESCO officials stressed that the damage didn’t begin with the US military’s arrival, nor fully end after it left. Archeologists took away some of Babylon’s finest treasures in the 19th century.... and looters returned when the Americans handed the site back to the Iraqis 21 months after the March 2003 invasion....
Yeah, right!
WE GUARDED IT when we FIRST INVADED -- that's why SO MANY of the ARTIFACTS were STOLEN weeks after the INVASION!
The REWRITING of HISTORY by the LYING MSM DISQUALIFIES it as a news source on ANYTHING, readers!
--more--"
And if it is not Iraq, then it is Iran, 9/11, the environment, the economy, and ANYTHING ELSE you will FIND in the PAPER!
