So the British Museum is demanding that eBay clamp down on the sale of antiquities, as the Brits are apparently worried that their heritage will be plundered and sold to the world. Now, would this not be the same British Museum that plundered the world to get ITS extensive holdings - including the Elgin Marbles, i.e., a big momma hunk of the Parthenon from Athens? And the same British Museum that balks at giving the Greeks back one of the most important, if the not THE most important, piece of their antiquity? Why, yes it is!
I can understand the legit concern of the Brits to stop plundering of their heritage, but they can go Cheney themselves for trying to stop others for doing what they continue to do to this day.
