    I’m going to disagree with you. If someone had a classic car rotting in their yard, stealing it wouldn’t be justified even if you intended to restore it.

    Imagine if China scooped up the Lincoln Memorial and promised to give it back at such time we could properly care for it.

      I’m talking about in a war zone, not just rotting in someone’s yard. Hence “being blown up.”

      What do you think about the Taliban destroying 1,400-year-old statuary? Should we be sending them more stuff just to be destroyed?
