I have seen "The Thief of Bagdad" in the late forties, and since I had liked it very much I had ordered it for my grand-children to see and enjoy. Somehow, I got disconnected while I was writing my comments about the last item I ordered a few days ago, which is "The Many faces of Nefertiti". Following nowares my comments, both about the book and its author, the despicable charlatan Prof. Dr. Dietrich Wildung.
The book arrived earlier than expected, which pleased me very much thanks to the sender who was probably happy to get rid of it. Everything was perfect, though the book, which together with its author, Prof. Dr. Dietrich Wildung, former Director of the Berlin Egyptian Museum are both together not worth more than a dime as Dietrich Wildung isn't the expert who is supposed to be, but a crook, a charlatan, a very malicious and despicable man unworthy of trust. It is not for no reason that the Honorable George Xanthos, Judge of the Superior Court of the state of California, in and for the County of Los Angeles has stigmatized him an "Intellectually dishonest man" in 1995 (Please see Preface in "The Scandal of the Century, The Mansoor Amarna Exposé" by Christine Mansoor, the book being sold at Amazon, I have read Wildung's book, and since I speak, read and write French as good or a little better than English, I also read the book of "Le buste de Nefertiti, une imposture de l'egyptologie" by Mr. Henri Stierlin to whom Dietrich Wildung, in September 9, 1983 had sent his "Historical stylistic Analysis of the Nefertiti bust" worded on the letterhead of: "The Direktion der Staatilichen Sammlung Agyptischer Kunst, Munchen" describing the book as follows (translated from the French): 1} the bust is an ice-cold perfection; 2} a lifeless work; 3} not one shred of amarna style is perceptible in it and 4) a fabricated work of art; to sum it up literally in few words: "a synthesis of diverse elements with no organic elements", or in pure German language as reported by Mr. Stierlin: a "aus der Retorte". Wildung is a despicable liar, a charlatan, crook, malicious and despicable individual who has no respect for his colleagues by using them as a tool to commit his crimes on his behalf while the coward hides behind them, and who desecrated the memory of a deceased honorable French Egyptologist: "canon" Dr. Etienne Drioton, former Director General of the Antiquities Service of Egypt, Professor at the "College de France, the Sorbonne, and Researcher at the "CNRS" (Centre National de la Recherche Sceintifique), desecrated the memory of my parents, Isabel and M. A. Mansoor , and as bad if not worse than everything else, has insulted His Holiness the Late Pope St. John Paul II by ignoring a request His Holiness had made about precious and rare objects received as gifts for the Vatican Egyptian Museum from the Mansoor family. He also insulted the members of the Mansoor family as being "greedy in the lowest meaning of the word" that he wrote in French, which mean we are thieves; for this reason I called him a crook and a liar. He caused the Vatican and Louvre Museums a considerable loss of precious and rare works of art by influencing the curators of their Egyptian Departments of art to withdraw from public exhibit the objects gifted to these Museums.

In page 119 of his book of "Egypt, from Prehistory to the Romans", Wildung had a picture of the Temple of Amenhotep IV illustrated, picture he stole from pages 646-47 of the "National Geographic Magazine" of November 1970 and did not give credit to "Leslie Greener" the artist, whose name the thief erased from the picture, nor did he give credit to the magazine, therefore committing "plagiarism". In page 124 of same book the absent-minded idiot called Nefertiti "Nefertari" who is a wife of Rameses II; while in page 21 of his book of "The Many Faces of Nefertiti", he explains that "the smoothly formed bottom, repeat bottom of the side (of the bust) serves as a surface on which the bust can stand". What else could the bst stand if it's not on its base? Stand on the air? Can there ever be a more stupid scholar than him in the entire world! He also stole 4 photographs from the 1975 exhibit catalog of the "Mansoor Amarna Collection" at San Francisco State University, had them illustrated in his article of "Fasche Pharaonene" article published in a pinkish color paper to please women, and had the article undersigned by a respectable friend of his, a Geologist teaching at the University of Munich so that no one suspects the coward is the author of the article for fear of the Mansoors suing him, while the writer of the Exhibit Catalog, Prof. Andreina Leanza Becker-Colonna has a copyright on all exhibit catalogs of the Mansoor collection. He claimed the Mansoor art objects are fakes while Prof. Leon Silver of CALTECH (California Institute of Technology) proved their authenticity "beyond any and all reasonable doubts' thanks to the enrichment of Barium and copper on their surfaces, that has been approved by the World renowned Sir Harold J. Penderleith, former Director of the British Museum Research laboratory, then Director Emeritus of ICCROM of UNESCO. Dietrich Wildung has not been retired by the Berlin Museum but excused and is now employed as a Professor of Egyptology at the "Frei Universitat, Berlin". As a supposed "International leading Egyptologist" he has not been requested to submit a write-up about the Nefertiti bust for the exhibit catalog of "In the Light of Amarna, 100 years of the Nefertiti discovery". This is enough for the time being until he ends up in jail.
