I won’t judge historical actions by our morals, but it’s fair to judge our contemporaries. If you want other nations to respect you, you gotta play by the rules.

British imperialism has left a legacy of genocide and plundering around the globe. Instead of wishing back the good old days it’s time to make up for it. It’s not like the Greeks want reparations, they just want back what was stolen.

So in the interest of European relations and trade and all the other nice things we have going right now, just give them back their old rocks.
