Modern Egyptians have been getting short sheeted for centuries. Ancient Egypt is a world civilization after all these millennia but it is still an Egyptian legacy for which they've have the right of first refusal. I'm glad to see Egyptians having the same opportunities as anyone else.
I do not agree they have a right to the personal property of anyone until they can actually how it was removed illegally. I don't so much mind some museum items being "repatriated" but not personal property. Anyone who purchased anything in good faith has every title to that property until it has been PROVEN to be illegally exported by the laws in effect when it left the country.
