I can't find anything published yet to support this yet... but the story I'm hearing is that the museum collection was designed to be broken down in a 24 hour period at the onset of war for hiding, and in this case they had several weeks lead time.... there's also speculation that most of the collection was reproductions, and Saddam had already self looted the museum a while ago. Take that with a grain of salt for now, but it sounds plausible...
and it still sounds like a coupla tanks parked protecting the outside of the museum, and the library wouldn't have hurt either.
