Mark,
Not as funny as you think - they want to sell off US$30 billion worth of
islands, according to some reports. From there, it is but a short step to
selling their cultural sites. At least they will get some money for it - all
the countries which had European masters for any length of time are used to
having all their cultural artifacts shamelessly looted - the British Museum
and the Louvre are the largest repositories of stolen loot in the world.
Even the so called 'Crown Jewels' is almost 100% loot!
Cheers
Jayanand
