  Great read. I do wonder what procedures are now required to display foreign gifts in government buildings. I know its a common courtesy for heads of state to exchange gifts and a few of these get prominently displayed in very secure places. Just one of many examples is the Resolute desk gifted by the British now sitting in the oval office.

    I believe most things received as gifts from foreign governments are treated as suspect until screened (bio, x-ray, etc).
