Not cool how they always use the term “looted”. Most of this stuff was not even close to looted. And think of all the treasures lost in Egypt, Iraq, and Syria.
When things are looted, it prevents islam from destroying world heritage items that predate them by centuries.

Same with the Chinese. If the West hadn't purchased all those old artefacts from the Chinese, they would have destroyed most of them during the Cultural Revolution and the Great Leap Backward.

Now they are pissed off they have to buy it back.

The Turks “looted” it when they took the land.
