"Iraq: Looting of Cultural Treasures.... April 21, 2003
Washington, D.C.: Why didn't the Bush administration have a plan for Iraq's antiquities before or during the war? Where they not concerned about Iraq's world heritage sites? I am so angered by what we have lost!
Francis Deblauwe: Basically Ancient Near Eastern (ANE) scholars had meetings with people in the Pentagon and the State Department ahead of the start of the war. The Pentagon was very interested in getting a more extensive list of the important archaeological sites and from what I know so far, the coalition Air Forces did a great job of avoiding bombing archaeological sites and museums.
The weakness of their preparation, however, lay in not planning for the aftermath of liberation. They were told to expect looting of museums as it happened during the aftermath of the Gulf War in 1991. But for a reason unknown to me and to my colleagues, they did not follow up on that, even though it would probably have taken only one tank to protect the Baghdad museum.
