There is finally some hope in the constant and ongoing battle to return the person on marbles from the United Kingdom to Greece. A new chairman has declared that there is a deal to be done in terms of the marbles. Many are very hopeful that this might be pointing to a potential return, but others have given up hope in this battle. personally, this is something that I would love to see. There are so many artifacts from around the world that are stolen and still being housed in museums in the United Kingdom. The right thing should be done, and the marbles should be returned, as should every other stolen artifact.

It is the dream of every nation to have its stolen artifacts returned, but consider these days when countries like Greece, Italy, etc., are being occupied by foreign hoodlums who are bent on destroying their artistic heritage! Artifacts in foreign museums are well kept and, I suppose, are best preserved right there. I'd ask those museums to increase safety measures. Recently an idiot went into a Texas museum and smashed an ancient painted Greek pottery. Elsewhere I advocated a law for capital punishment for such actions.
