Philosophy Wire by Spiros Kakos [2011-03-29]: Precious Treasures of Afghanistan are exhibited in the British Museum. The nearly 200 precious pieces of gold that can be admired by those who visit the museum in England were, according to the officers of the museum, "saved" by the Taliban and that is why we are now lucky enough to be able to see and enjoy them [source: web news, web news 2]. England once again shows the best of the western "culture"... Civilization of the type "I invade your country, steal your culture and then you have to pay a ticket in order to see it"... From the Parthenon marbles to the treasures of Afganistan, the "law of the strongest" remains the most powerful of all laws... Who knows what other treasures we will "save" from Libya...
