There have always been jewel thieves.

Yes, but when we import criminals with no respect for Western culture they not only steal things, they will destroy them. A European criminal might think it an accomplishment to steal a national treasure and hide it away. A Third World criminal will destroy it for a few Euros.

I think you're a little naive about 'European criminals'...

Before the Muzzie invasion of Europe, how many church arsons were there compared to now?

You’re conflating a crime of religious hatred with one perpetrated from sheer avarice. They’re very different.

Nobody would steal these jewels just to hide them away and look at them now and then, no matter how ‘European’ they were.

By now, they’re probably all broken up and the stones ready to be fenced.
