Representing the Antiquities Trade, Washington Style

 

Peter Tompa spouting the same old stuff:

 

Peter Tompa's warped thought-processes obviously see the aim of "archaeologists" to be the persecution of dealers and collectors. He suggests that under the Taliban, archaeologists will enter into a PAS-style "partnership" with the Taliban - who will then as a result institute in Afghanistan a ban on antiquities sales and brutal punishments for looting. Somehow this will give jobs to archaeologists. I wonder if they teach logic in US lawyer schools, and how well Mr Tompa did in that subject.
