Apparently, you didn't watch the news as it was happening. It wasn't a "fringe legend" when CNN, Fox News, et. al., were reporting that American troops were securing museums in Baghdad. The embedded journalists were showing live feeds from the museums.
Nice try at retroactive changing of the story, however.

Haven't seen the video, probably won't watch it. I don't really believe in Nibiru, for all that it matters. (But I will discuss it). However, all you naysayers realize this:
When American troops rolled into Bagdad, where did they go first? Did they go to Power plants? Did they go to Water plants? Did they go to sewage plants? Did they go to communications facilities?
No.
They rolled into, and took over MUSEUMS.
Don't you find it incredibly ODD that, out of all the places that an army would traditionally seek to control, they would go to MUSEUMS first? No one else finds that very, very strange?
A museum has ZERO military use. None. Nada. Zip. Taking a museum does not give it a tactical, strategic, nor even PR advantage. Unless, of course, there are things in those museums that the general public is not aware of.
