Old Judaica found in Iraq

In the basement of the Iraqi security police the Americans found some of Saddam's Secret Stash in form of a number of scriptures from the Jewish community which was almost terminated during the reign of Saddam and his successors.

The basement had been flooded during the bombings but the troups, searching for the invisible weapons of mass destruction, did save the cache filled with parchment rolls, books and other documents. The rescue op did take about a week and under stress since outside the building an undetonated bomb was located.
