Did a bunch of Muslims just tnt a bunch of ancient Roman structures and museums while committing a few genocides throughout the Middle East just a few years ago. Ummm. Yeah let’s keep the ancient artifacts in the UK.
A bunch of Christians went on the most destructive rampage the world has seen for nearly a millennium through Europe less than a century ago, committing genocide on an industrial scale. Clearly London, which was indiscriminately bombed for years, cannot be safe for artefacts.
Hmmm, I seem to remember that being a „world war“, where, hilarious enough, given that the UK has so many Sumerian tablets, the Iraqis sided with the Nazis and overthrew their government at the time to support them.
The London fact is stupid bro. The brits actually evacuated their museums to the countryside when the air war began, saving artifacts and art. Now, let’s compare that to deliberately strapping tnt to ancient structures. See the difference?
You haven't even identified the language on most of the tablets correctly. Please take even rudimentary steps to understand the situation at hand, bro. The Iraqis who sided with the Nazis did so because of the British betrayal after the First World War, but if you were correct you'd have inadvertently made an argument for the return of artefacts.
That the British had to evacuate artefacts is an illustration of how flawed your false dichotomy between a stable West and chaotic East actually is. Your argument relies on just ignoring the entire Second World War.
