    Well, as I can see the comment remind you of what happen in when “Muslim Arab” did in Iraq where, “checking notes”, the US and the UK destroyed the country and move it to a civil war while stealing oil and gold, then blame them for what happen to the museum.

    Then he also remind you of what “Muslim” did in Afghanistan where, “checks notes”, the US and UK made sure to fund an Islamic extremist ideology to fight the Russian, then complain when they destroyed a Buddhist statue.

    The same comment doesn’t seems to see the irony of colonizer stealing shit, making money of it, and then finding lame excuse and ignoring that Arab and Muslim lived in these lands for over 1400 years where all these artifact survived to modern day.

      You mean the ISIS which appeared after America invaded Iraq, destroyed it, and backed violent rebel groups with weapons?

      Must be that “Islamic extremism” again.

        I mean ISIS that Israel and US funded to move Syria to a disaster, allowing them to put bases all over the country and sign deals for oil extraction on recognized Syrian border…

        However, Moshe Ya’alon, former defense minister of Israel, has stated that IS “apologized” for a clash in November 2016. Communication with IS is illegal under Israeli law, and is considered to be contact with an enemy agent.[5] IDF refused to comment further on the issue

      Point of order, the Iraqis used a worker action to prevent the US from taking the oil.

      Or more specifically, from importing American oil workers and executives to rebuild the oil fields and run them in the near term. The Iraqis had a reasonable fear that they would be squeezed out of the industry and it would return to a Western corporation just taking all the oil, as it was before 1972.

      Bush actually backed off and now Iraq administers it’s own oil and sells leases like most other countries. Just recently they finalized a deal with Total(France), ACWA(Saudi Arabia), QatarEnergies, and Basra Oil Company (Iraq).

      So hopefully it’s working out for them long term.
