Sam Hardy on Looting at Apamea and "that" Coin


Cutting through the multi-layered crap that is accumulating around the stories of looting in war-torn Syria and Iraq, Sam Hardy dissects a particularly unfortunate Times story: "Conflict antiquities from Apamea do not finance the Islamic State – they finance the Assad regime" Conflict Antiquities, March 18, 2015 - tagline: "Despite the headline, the Times has not presented any evidence of Islamic State-looted antiquities on eBay". Well worth a read.
