If someone were going to start attacking MtGox accounts, they aren't going to steal 29 BTC, et even worth the attention it brings... 2FA works fine, the OP enabled 2FA after attack. That simple.  
He is claiming otherwise. Although you are right, we would probably see evidence of more 2fa heists if the OPs claim is true. Perhaps this was a test run. Perhaps it's just a gox troll.

Logs would be nice (from gox), at the very least. Perhaps you can pull logs from the yubikey, idk if that is at all possible. In the end of the day the logs could be tampered with by either party so there is no way to know for sure.

If this is a lie by the OP we would need to find motive, perhaps another exchange spreading FUD.  

Gox has my real info, they can verify if I'm associated to another exchange or not. You're right about the seeing evidence of more 2fa heists though since my incident shouldn't be an isolated incident. For now, I have filed a police report with my local pd in addition to contacting my attorney general.

FACT:
Mt.Gox did not steal your coins.  They can literally print all the goxUSD, and trading BTC they want, and can be much more discreet, without leaving a paper trail. 

Read the thread man, this has been addressed many times. No one really thinks they stole it. We want to see if there is an issue with the 2FA implementation.
