“us”? Is that the pluralis majestatis?
But if all of you haven’t figured out by now that the whole UNESCO World Heritage Site scam is just that - a scam to impose some sort of UN mandate to control local politics - then you are a fool indeed.
The UN is an attempt to assert global control, true. Unfortunately, the preservation of history and ancient artifacts takes money that people don't want to contribute. Instead of blowing hard at UNESCO, Find us a way to get people to care about the preservation of history and antiquities. Show us the way. That is if you care about old stuff.

No need to resort to name-calling. A modicum of courtesy would be appreciated.
No, I haven't "figured that out yet." In fact, I dare say that 99% of all FReepers have not conducted a thorough study of this so-called "scam," and so would likewise be interested in any reasonable arguments you would care to post.
I am by no means a "friend" of the U.N., but I was unaware that being designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site was, in and of itself, that fraught with peril.
Saying "If you don't know already, you are a fool" is a troll's argument - a non-answer intended only to provoke and insult - and thus unbecoming of a FReeper interested in civil discourse.
