ISIS turned Iraqi museum into 'Islamic IRS' after destroying artifacts

  • 7 years ago
After seizing a museum in Mosul and destroying all of the Mesopotamian artifacts two years ago, ISIS turned the building into a tax office. The world learned about the museum after ISIS released a video months later of the terror group destroying the artifacts. Iraqi troops reclaimed the museum last month from the Islamic militants. The museum was entirely destroyed with only a few blocks of Islamic calligraphy left.
