These are the bastards, under Reynault de Chatillon and others, who were responsible for the brutal massacre of Jews and Muslims when Jerusalem was taken. So the lot of them should be massacred.

On the other hand they were just stealing from others who had stolen so there is no justice to be had by giving them anything.

However, if this proceeds through the Courts, then I want the Maltese Falcon exempted from the proceedings and declared a world treasure which cannot be possessed by anyone.

The treasure is on Oak Island.

The treasure was on Oak Island. It was moved to Rosslyn Chapel in Scotland and now resides in the basement of the new Louvre Annex in Paris.

Didn't you see "The DaVinci Code"?

“moved to Rosslyn Chapel in Scotland”

What do their demands matter - they were a religious organisation answerable directly to the Pope. If they claim to be the organisation, he can simply smile and say, by the way, I order you to relinquish all claims to those assets your order used to hold as part of the Catholic Church...

...a laborious court case through the creaking Spanish legal system...

Riiiiiight.... Good thing Spain has NEVER been in lockstep with the Catholic Church. Granted, things are changing, but methinks not that much.

Yeah, maybe next time they will read the fine print about infallibility. Also, I can see the next headline:

Vatican to Knights Templar: You'll get your money when you can show you have been executing your duty of "protecting pilgrims en route to the Holy Land for the last few hundred years. Mind you, I am not defending the Church on this one, but I am pointing out that even a revered name can file a frivolous lawsuit

You left out the Vandals and Suevi, the Byzantines (under Justinian), and the Franks (under Charlemagne).

To: The Cuban

“....Being a Cuban, I am going to sue: (1) The Lebanese Government, for the invasion of my ancestral home by the Pheonecians and thier spawn, the Carhaginians; (2) Greece for the invasion of my ancestral home by the Ancient Greeks; (3) Italy and the City of Rome for the conquest of Spain by Rome; (4) Germany, lets not forget those damn Visigoths!; (5) [Can’t sue Islam, its a Religion of Peace, we were the Crusading occupiers (repeat 20,000 times] (6) France, for the War of Spanish Succession and that horrible Napoleonic occupation; (7) England, how dare they invade Napoleonic Spain! and (8) The United States, for the Spanish American War....”

I’d like to join you suit as a class action against Rome for building that damn wall across England and depriving my Scottish ancestors of their livelihood of raiding and pillaging.
