An Iraqi Museum will reopen at the end of this month, that has been shut down since shortly after the U.S. invaded in 2003. The Iraqi National Museum, is home to artifacts that are priceless to the nation of Iraq. This reopening is a major building block in the nations struggle to preserve important artifacts.
Qahtan al-Jibouri, the minister of state for tourism and antiquities has been working on the renovation for the museum for several months, and is saying that the artifacts, and the museum will be protected by a new ministry force entitled the "relics protection force".
Its nice to see that although this country has been through some hard times, they are working hard to keep there heritage alive.
