I appreciate that the thread started with the story of an idiotic vandal ... but with various comments about ownership of cultural heritage etc I thought this may be relavent.....
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/south_asia/7334229.stm This is the same story reported in Canada, but this has responses from readers.... http://www.cbc.ca/arts/artdesign/sto...kh-armour.html |

This type of ( forcingly political ) issues is allways amazing ... to give them a sporty name
 Allways all parties trying to "bleech" the whatever raised examples to make their interests more benignous that those of the others, expelling any possible remorse from their own scene  .It's a bit like discussing the sex of virgins, as we say over here  .Eveybody sacks everything from everybody, as everybody sells everything to everybody; it's all a matter of context. This is a dog world, that has allways been ruled by the law of the strongest. As for collectors being the nice guys in the story, it depends on what they collect; there are even collectors of nations
