Can you sell history?

Recent wars have shown us that, somehow, they serve as the perfect opportunity for Western societies to smuggle historical artifacts. How is it even possible to sell another country’s history on the streets of London? Do the buyers of these artifacts feel any moral concern at all?

The West has always claimed to “bring civilization” to the very places they exploit. How does an “English Gentleman” purchase a bone-mounted artifact from the 4th century B.C. originating from Iraq or Syria, if it isn’t stolen? They ship weapons to the Middle East—arming people to kill each other more efficiently—and in return, strip away the actual culture, art, and artifacts of those civilizations. Backed by their immense media power, they brand themselves as the bearers of a “better civilization, better society, better humanity.” But are their citizens truly this blind?

How can UNESCO keep its eyes wide shut to the actions of Western societies?

Can’t you see, West? If you are stealing from someone else, your core values are already gone. Furthermore, aren’t you realizing that someone else is going to steal from you? (Just look at Israel).

So, I ask you: Can you really steal history? Can you rewrite it? (Just as you intentionally erased Islamic History from your encyclopedias of world history since the beginning of the 18th century). If you rewrite history, how can you even claim the authenticity of these historical artifacts anymore? What proof will you show the people? Your short-term plans are bound to fail!

The whole world will eventually see what you are doing. We will see how your so-called moral, philosophical, civil, and humanitarian concepts actually work in practice. Ultimately, this hypocrisy will lead to your collapse.

Just saying, you know.
