Abstract
Heritage and cultural property in all its forms, represents people's Assembly, which passed from generation to generation, where blend the features of national character and national characteristics distinct memory. Monuments constitute an episode of cultural and civilizational evolution, and confirms that the loss of any impact, represents a great loss for all of humanity. In these circumstances, it is not surprising to find that the war took a pose on the monuments and their value, as destroying monuments and cultural property and heritage of many countries, under the pretext of military necessity. If the media play a national and a national responsibility, especially in the countries and communities in which they locked in a comprehensive counter neo-colonialism and regional and international instruments, as is happening today in many of the Arab world countries, the media transformed by necessity into high-impact strength, and be one of the priorities of its duties is not pumping breaking news field or the immediate prosecution of media hostile lies and refutes it by video and audio and documents, but also to defend the national patriotic memory components, particularly the inherited cultural and civilizational heritage, and thus defend the threatened destruction, mutilation identity. Instead of the media system's active role in the definition of heritage and civilization, and to contribute to influencing the preservation of identity and the consolidation of its components in society, it ignore little by little these components, although the deliberate destruction of Antiquities and places of worship and works of art is a manifestation of slipping into the abyss of the overall cultural war. This research deals with the role of media in protecting the heritage and cultural property, and aims to highlight: the dire consequences and the risks to the wealth of civilization and culture in the Arab countries, including Iraq (for example), which took the forms in a systematic destruction of historical monuments and religious sites. Controlled by the western media and western agencies bias against the Arab countries, and the control of news sources pictured on the Arab news, and the role of media outreach, in the face of the impact of satellite television and hostile Internet and social networks, and other media dominant, which has become a large part of which poses a threat to national identity. It follows a descriptive approach through the extrapolation of the definition of cultural property, treaties and conventions organized to protect them in situations of armed conflict, and to monitor the destruction of Iraqi cultural property solution, as follows analytical method to determine the role of new media in the protection of cultural properties.

Abstract: (arabic)
يمثل التراث والممتلكات الثقافية بكافة أشكالها ذاكرة الشعوب الجمعية التي تنتقل من جيل إلى جيل, فتمتزج بملامح الشخصية الوطنية وسماتها القومية المتميزة. كما أن الآثار تشكل حلقة من حلقات التطور الثقافي والحضاري، وما يؤكد ذلك أن ضياع أي أثر أو فقدانه، يمثل خسارة كبرى لا للدولة صاحبة الأثر فحسب بل للإنسانية جمعاء. وفي هذه الظروف فإنه ليس من الغريب أن نجد أن الحروب أخذت تشكل خطراً على الآثار وقيمتها، إذ تدمر الآثار والممتلكات الثقافية والتراث لدول كثيرة، بحجة الضرورات العسكرية. وإذا كان الإعلام يضطلع بمسؤولية وطنية وقومية، ولا سيما في البلدان والمجتمعات التي تخوض صراعاً شاملاً لمواجهة الاستعمار الجديد وأدواته الإقليمية والدولية, كما يحدث اليوم في العديد من بلدان الوطن العربي, فإن الإعلام يتحول بحكم الضرورة إلى قوة شديدة التأثير, وتكون من أولويات مهماته ليس ضخ الأخبار العاجلة الميدانية أو الملاحقة الفورية للأضاليل الإعلامية المعادية ودحضها بالصوت والصورة والوثائق وحسب, وإنما بالدفاع عن مكونات الذاكرة الوطنية القومية وفي مقدمتها الموروث والتراث الثقافي والحضاري, وبالتالي الدفاع عن الهوية المهددة بالتدمير والتشويه. وبدلاً من قيام المنظومة الإعلامية بدور فعال في التعريف بالتراث الحضاري, والمساهمة في الحفاظ على الهوية وترسيخ مكوناتها في المجتمع, فإنها تتجاهل شيئاً فشيئاً هذه المكونات, رغم أن التدمير المتعمد للآثار وأماكن العبادة والأعمال الفنية هو مظهر من مظاهر الانزلاق إلى هاوية الحرب الثقافية الشاملة.
