Sending back Iraqi archive is simply rewarding larceny | The Jewish Chronicle One day in 1984, the Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein sent his henchmen to a Baghdad synagogue to seize what became known as “the Jewish archive”. The trove, retrieved from Jewish homes, schools and libraries, had been deposited for safe-keeping in the ladies’ gallery. The few remaining Jews were aghast to see trucks full of documents and books driven away from under their noses. In 2003, the US military discovered the archive under three feet of water on the floor of Saddam’s secret-police headquarters. They decided to ship the Jewish archive out to the US for restoration. http://bit.ly/GWDmmG Source: http://www.thejc.com/comment-and-debate/comment/112532/sending-back-iraqi-archive-simply-rewarding-larceny See if people are clicking on this link: http://bit.ly/GWDmmG+ Try the bitly.com sidebar to see who is talking about a page on the web: http://bitly.com/pages/sidebar -- Peter Kurilecz CRM CA IGP [log in to unmask] Dallas, Texas Save our in-boxes! http://emailcharter.org http://twitter.com/RAINbyte http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/RAINbyte/ http://paper.li/RAINbyte/rainbyte http://pinterest.com/pakurilecz/archives/ http://pinterest.com/pakurilecz/records-management/ http://www.linkedin.com/in/peterakurilecz Information not relevant for my reply has been deleted to reduce the electronic footprint and to save the sanity of digest subscribers List archives at http://lists.ufl.edu/archives/recmgmt-l.html Contact [log in to unmask] for assistance To unsubscribe from this list, click the below link.
