Antiquities "looted during unrest in Egypt are reaching public markets in the West"

"Antiquities looted during unrest in Egypt are reaching public markets in the West" says a London archeologist-anti-collecting-blogger.

"Anyone sane must agree, if antiquities that have demonstrably been looted from crisis-and-unrest-riven Egypt are reaching public markets in the West, then they must also be reaching private markets in the West, even though the nature of those markets makes their illicit commodities practically invisible. And anyone reasonable must accept, if antiquities that have been looted during the unrest in Egypt are reaching Western markets, then antiquities that have been looted during the conflict(s) in Syria and Iraq too must be reaching Western markets, even though the nature of those markets makes their illicit commodities practically invisible".

Prove it. What was it that was being said the other day about fanciful claims that looted artifacts provide ISIS' second largest funding source or that $36 million was derived from looted antiquities in one Syrian locality alone? Yet the archeologists will not willingly abandon their discredited anti-collecting propaganda.
