This Is An Interesting Admission

Quote:A National Plan to Excavate the Judean Desert Caves and Save the Scrolls from Being Robbed

Quote:The Israel Antiquities Authority, in cooperation with the Heritage Project in the Ministry of Jerusalem Affairs, and together with the Minister of Culture and Sport, MK Miri Regev, is promoting a national plan for comprehensive archaeological excavations in the Judean Desert caves, and rescuing the Dead Sea Scrolls, which are among the earliest texts written in the Hebrew language.

According to Israel Hasson, director-general of the Israel Antiquities Authority, “For years now our most important heritage and cultural assets have been excavated illicitly and plundered in the Judean Desert caves for reasons of greed. The goal of the national plan that we are advancing is to excavate and find all of the scrolls that remain in the caves, once and for all, so that they will be rescued and preserved by the state”.


It would seem that the Israelis have a far superior understanding of their own heritage than these idiot fundies who think fucking "David" was writing books in hebrew in the 10th century!  Of course, that isn't really a surprise.  There isn't much dumber than a fundie.
