The "They'll just sell or destroy them" defense is sort of awful. They aren't necessarily wrong, but they also neglect the fact that they've sold and destroyed a lot of them themselves already.

Director of The Met was quoted as saying "Clearly those artifacts belonged in a Museum" before directing his security agents to throw the reporters over the side.

Why are the pyramids in Egypt? Because they were too big to transport to England.

I'm surprised they haven't tried at least taking one with them, like attempt to fully disassemble it , just to reassemble it later at the British museum. I can almost see it as a Monty python sketch where they fuck it up tremendously and then end up having to paint the walls themselves to cover up their fuckup
