 Have they checked Ebay?

It looks like somebody made out their shopping list.

I hoppe they can recover these objects because they are priceless. I've been to Egypt two years ago and it's just amazing to see those thousands of years old sites and objects.

These treasures count as a significant part of Cairo. It not just possess a huge amount of value but it has a very vital hold in the history of the country. I could only wish for it to be found soon. 

<p>There have been consistant complaints about the number of ancient artifacts housed in museums outside Egypt. At least these institutions protect and conserve these treasures, while the Cairo Museum has proved incapable as far as being the guardian of its own heritage. I find the loss and damage of so many artifacts apalling, especially for such an institution whose fuction is the guardianship of such artifacts...not to mention other locations in Egypt that have failed to do the same!!</p>

Digusting that the museum be looted.
The pharoah's treasures seemed to be doomed to grave robbers, looters and museum- robbers.
Wonder if some of the pieces will ever be returned or found ?

Ouch what a long list. I would imagine they will be lost into private collections now.

<p>Now that the Republican is running for president, his campaign has begun distancing itself from some of the candidate's own words on issues such as Social Security and states' rights.</p>

<p>Pulling back won't be easy because &quot;Fed Up! Our Fight to Save America From Washington&quot; is anything but the nuanced list of general positions that fills the pages of most presidential candidates' books.</p>

<p>Already, Perry communications director Ray Sullivan was reported as saying that the book is not meant to reflect Perry's current views on Social Security &mdash; even though &quot;Fed Up&quot; was published just last year.</p>

<p>hese are national treasures. If they weren't, a lot of people may have tried to find hem.</p>
