Despite all the war and insurgency that is happening in the nation, this city Baghdad is actually the worlds oldest city that is still in existence and is the birthplace of civilization. I would like to know how much of Baghdad's historical relics have been effected by the war and whether they can be fully restored for tourists to enjoy in the late future. Do you think there will be a day when Iraq will become stable enough were people can bring their families to witness the wonders of ancient civilizations? Or is that never going to happen? What is your opinion? How much relics were lost from the war? Are U.S soldiers protecting archeological sights?
