There is a black/white movie called “THE TRAIN”-—with (IIRC) Burt Lancaster in it.
RIVETING true story of Nazi’s trying to get stolen artworks out of Germany at end of war days.

Let’s just hope Oberlin has the same kind of bad luck they had with the bakery case.

The article is confusing. The only Manhattan I’ve heard of is in NY? What jurisdiction does a (probably corrupt) D.A. In NY have in Ohio?

Seems to ne those kind of universities are few and far between now.

So very typical of hard left groups that are actually fascists at heart.

They know they are in possession of stolen property.
Return it, already!

[snip] In 2002, Oberlin College returned a twined root bag that had been taken from the Nez Perce tribe a century before, and even held a symposium celebrating the return... why fight for so long the return of an item stolen by the Nazis during the Holocaust? Why not treat it like the twined root bag returned to the Nez Perce tribe, where ethics and morality — not the law — led Oberlin College to give up its possession? Are items stolen from Jews during the Holocaust less worthy of non-legal ethical considerations than items obtained from Native American tribes? Why wait until the legal and public pressure mounts? Why not have returned the artwork in 2006, or last year when a civil lawsuit seeking its return was filed. Will it really take a criminal seizure warrant to get back this stolen property? [/snip]

If they knew the Nez Perce was one of the Lost Tribes they’d still have the twined root bag on display!

Stolen property is stolen property no matter how many hands it passes through. It does not get cleansed by being bought and sold.....................
