Experts are reassessing the extent of looting and damage to Iraq’s National Museum. It looks like the damage is far less than originally reported. ” ‘We have dodged a bullet. Through some luck and some real preparations by the museum staff, we have saved a lot.’ The preparations included moving hundred of boxes of museum treasure to safe storage in an air raid shelter several miles from the museum. Luck spared several priceless pieces that were there for the taking but somehow overlooked by looters.”
