As the world’s foremost collector of rare biblical artifacts, Steven Green may have made a deal with the devil - helping to preserve Iraq’s disappearing Christian heritage by allegedly buying black market items plundered by the Islamic State.
Green, whose family-owned Hobby Lobby company clashed bitterly with the Obama administration over federal health care laws that required it to cover reproductive services, is being investigated by Customs & Border Protection reportedly for attempting to smuggle as many as 300 age-old cuneiform tablets from Iraq into the U.S. via Israel, labeling them "tiles." It was not clear if the probe centers on Green, the company, or both, but the shipment was reportedly addressed to Hobby Lobby headquarters in Oklahoma City.

Isis wold probbly destroy them, why not try to save them?
And considering the gay commie muslim heading fedgov, why think theyd help if you more precisely labeled them?
Revenge.
Um, if they were made of clay, if they were fired,
then they ARE tiles.
Next up, Obama to investigate Elgin Marbles.
If he took a sledge hammer to them, O would hang the medal of freedom around his neck.
More Gibson type harrassment. Bureaucratic bullying is this administration’s middle name.
Obama will demand they be Destroyed
“Revenge”
Yep.
They dared to disagree with THE WON.
I wouldn’t put it past the 0bama admin to have clandestinely lured Green into doing this, as revenge, yes.
Well I guess in obummer speak he is fighting ISIS this way.
Is this similar to the Gibson Guitar persecution?
Long expensive investigation no charges filed?
Nothing to do with law enforcement just lefty harassment.
“Revenge”
Exactly.
Obama Strikes Back.

The process is the punishment.
So... Is there a law against buying artifacts overseas and shipping them to the U.S.? If so, why?
Quite. Labeling them, say, "sushi" would be inaccurate. But they ARE tiles.
I’m just speculating here, but couldn’t it be to prevent the looting of a country’s national treasures?
You know The Obama has been waiting and praying (to himself) for a chance to whack Hobby Lobbys owners.
No one, but no one, is allowed to thwart the plans of The Obama.
