US Court Rules Jews are Entitled to Art That Doesn’t Belong to Them

The latest exercise in legal Chutzpah features the US District Court for the District of Columbia, which has found that a group of American Jews can walk into a German museum, pick art they think looks expensive, and then sue the German government claiming it is theirs.

The artifacts in question are the Guelph Treasure, which Jewish art speculators sold to the Dresdner Bank in 1935 out of their own free will – as a German commission found when this case first came to light. The Jewish descendants of the individuals who sold the art retreated back to the US – where they have home field advantage – and now have permission to sue them here.

Haaretz:

A U.S. district court has cleared the way for descendants of Jewish art collectors to sue Germany in the United States over objects allegedly obtained from their ancestors under duress during the Nazi era.

The ruling comes three years after a German investigative commission found that the owners of a collection – known as the Welfenschatz, or Guelph Treasure – were not forced to sell it by the Nazis.

…

For several years, heirs to the consortium of Jewish collectors that bought the 82-piece collection in 1929 as an investment have been demanding the return of the portion sold to Goering. They have estimated its value at approximately $227 million.

Attorneys filed the suit in the U.S. in February 2015 against the Federal Republic of Germany and the Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation, one year after the Limbach Commission, the German advisory board for Holocaust-related claims, rejected the plaintiffs’ contention that the 1935 sale had been forced.

The argument that the sale of this art was “under duress” because they didn’t get the price they believe they deserve 82 years later is the kind of fanciful legal logic you can get away with when you control the courts and media.

If this case goes through and succeeds, what is stopping the descendants of the Indians who sold Manhattan to Peter Minuit for a few trinkets from suing the city of New York for the full modern day value of Manhattan? They too could argue that they made the sale under duress, and might even have a better case than these Jews do.

The real duress is what Jews put the people they’re trying to fleece through. They know the weak German government is under their boot heel, and for a humble $227 million pay off, they can provide temporary relief.
