The USA already carried off the treasures it discovered in the Central Baghdad region. The British already plundered the Nineveh site in the 1920s and stole the ancient Babylonian weapons and illuminating devices, though the Cabal has been searching the Holy Lands very closely since WWII.

we know Iraq was originally invaded to squash the threat of radical moslems, plunder their oil and minerals, and get into strategic position for similar attack on Iran, and dozens of Air Bases were left on standby for that coming war. but now that Abu Bakr has taken over northern Iraq, and is busy mutilating millions of women round Mosul, and planning to expand his divine New Levant in all directions, what is happening to the american bases ? are they being attacked by mr.Bakr as well ? is he going to cut off all the yankee cocks in northern Iraq ? or has o'Bummer got a secret agreement with His Holiness to leave them alone ?
I would love to know what exactly The Vatican has in its possession, in terms of artifacts, reliquaries and writings. It's my belief that, even with access to as many experts as they've had over the centuries, they do not know the true function of what's been stolen and transported from the Crusades era leading up through the present.

** you guys are commenting on looting of ancient treasures 15 years ago. but the question was about the dozens of american Air Bases left on standby 2013-4 after the main troops left Baghdad. why is Psycho Abu not attacking them ? Syrian rebels are supplied with CIA weapons and Saudi money, and have captured rich Oil Fields around Mosul, so this all sounds like a CIA overplan to let the rag-heads (of all types) kill each other off, AS LONG as the Bases are left alone, waiting for jews to find excuse to attack Iran SOON ..... meanwhile mr.Putin has armed his icbm ready for yankee troops to be stupid enough to move into Ukraine.... its all heating up .... just need a false flag, or even a real one !! where is that "god" when earth needs the useless homosexual ? busy scratching his ass in "heaven" do doubt ...
Oh they are going to attack the bastards are just cowards and picking the easy civilian fruit why attack bases where....wait for it....actual weapons are stored.

You saying ISIS would run that risk? The Caliphate would be dead and buried if one of those bases was attacked.
Good point. Maybe the treasures were transported to Avignon, Novosibirsk or New York, I don't know. We know they would not have been destroyed. Some of them maybe have had jewels or precious metal of intrinsic value, but of course these would simply have been removed without destroying the rest. The Ark of the Covenant, for example, if it were possible to touch its exterior without being smited, the gold could simply be scraped off- no one would dare to destroy the box itself, much less the tablets or Aaron's Rod.

Considering how many times Rome itself was sacked: in 410, 455, 546, 846 and 1527 how much do you think might have been left not to mention the plundering of its records by Napoleon in 1809, nor considering the centuries where the Papacy wasn't even in Rome and sometimes there were two or even three Popes in Italy, France or Spain.
I doubt that.

I've often considered posting a fictional/hypothetical story/thread based on many things you've touched on in our Skunk works forum. Who knows...
Sometimes, the reality of any given situation may be stranger than fictional accounts based on historically known facts.
DIABOLICAL! I had always assumed the Jews would rebuild it in Jerusalem, but I guess consecrated ground can be found elsewhere and is abundant in the Holy Lands.

Iraqi Freedom was a sleight of hand to draw attention from the tunneling under Al Aqsa to rebuild Solomon's temple underneath the mosque. Construction started in 1996, it's nearing completion now.

One worries what the overlords have in store for us with the Holy weapons they've recovered. The Biblical accounts seem like harmless magic, but it doesn't take too much imagination to see that these were instruments of terrible plagues, tremendous destructive power and the wrath of G*d- packaged conveniently into a tangible item that we could later use / abuse.
My suspicion is that there's a high likelihood that the plundered treasures have already been used. The Manhattan Project would not have been possible without such tools. So too was infecting the Chinese people with mass retardation, and blighting American men with baldness and erectile dysfunction. The invisible hand of capitalism that Adam Smith envisioned is nothing to the invisible puppet strings that these people (?) utilize to direct the course of human history. Perhaps if I knew more of their intentions I would be even more afraid.
