  No, I'm not saying that they should be allowed to re-steal. I said that I don't care about a shipwreck, but the spanish government has been known to claim this kind of finds in the past because technically that is a Spanish ship and legal precedents exist. Also, all the global empires have been built on the same coercive foundation, and that doesn't make them "regimes".

    The reduction of the North American Indian population from an estimated 12 million in 1500 to barely 237,000 in 1900 represents a"vast genocide", the most sustained on record. http://historynewsnetwork.org/article/7302 http://historynewsnetwork.org/article/7302 Well, it looks like there was, in fact, a vast genocide. In the north and also the south americas. Really sad...
