Once again, an expensive work of art said to have been "looted" by the big bad "Nazis" ™ has, after eight decades, found its way back to the grasping alleged heirs of the "rightful owners." And once again, the happy-as-pig-in-mud heirs just happen to be, shall we say, with all due reverence, people "of the Jewish faith" ™. Cheese and crackers! Were there no non-Jewish owners of all these artworks suddenly finding their way back to "the rightful owners" after all these years? Did only Jews own the countless pieces of art which the culture-loving Germans diligently gathered up to protect them (here) from the merciless heavy-bomber carpet blasting of the glorious Allied "liberators" of Europe?
In this particular case, the art is said to have been taken before the bombing raids. From the article:
"A cathedral in Germany has agreed to return a Nazi-looted painting to the heirs of Gottlieb and Mathilde Kraus, an Austrian Jewish couple from whom it was stolen in 1941, according to the Commission for Looted Art in Europe, which has spent the last eight years negotiating the restitution.
The painting, “View of a Dutch Square,” attributed to the Golden Age painter Jan van der Heyden, was one of about 160 looted from the Kraus family in 1941, retrieved by the Allies after the war and returned to the Bavarian State. But instead of ensuring its restitution to the family from which it was stolen, the Bavarian government sold it back to the heir of the Nazi official who bought it during the war."
OK, Nina Siegal (cough cough). If you write it in Sulzberger's Slimes, then it must be true.

In countries all across Europe, The Great One (a talented painter himself) saved many works of fine art from Allied mass destruction. The program was about cultural protection, not "looting."
Considering the destruction of the final war years and the chaos which continued for several more years after the war; we have to wonder how this "commission" is able to conclusively establish ownership after all these years? Though these stories never seem to explain the nature of the evidence nor how the cases were proved; we strongly suspect that establishing "ownership" is about as easy as some chosenite "heir" filing a complaint and showing up at some hearing whining: "Mine! Mine! Mine! --- Holocaust! Holocaust Holocaust --- Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!" As long as the long dead original owners or museum curators don't resurface to counter such dubious demands, who in the tyrannical EUSSR would dare to question them? That would be "anti-Semitic" ™, doncha' know?
The article describes the "happiness" over the latest shakedown:
“'I’m excited and happy that it’s coming to a resolution, but I’m struck both by the weight of my family and the solemnity of the occasion,' John Graykowski, an American great-grandson of the Krauses, said in a telephone interview from Xanten, Germany, where church officials were expected to turn over the painting on Thursday."
The Kraus family left Austria in March 1938, when Germany and Austria happily merged. According to this ridicuolus claim, they "left their art collection behind." Why would they not take their valuable art with them? The Germans did not seize the property of Jewish emigres. To the contrary, the Germans -- happy to see them leave voluntarily -- were very cooperative in working with Jews who "fled" during the pre-war years. This story about art being "left behind" (in 1938?) just doesn't make sense. During the war years, maybe. But in 1938?

1 & 2: All over Europe, heavy Allied bombers brought mass death and destruction of cultural treasures. (Image 2 is from Caen, France -- bombed to bits so that it could be "liberated") // 3. "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!" -- Once again, the usual suspects have found a way to profit from that horrible war which they plunged the world into in the first place.
Again, the most telling indicator that this never-ending "art recovery" is a crooked scheme lies in the fact that all the "rightful heirs" of so much of this "looted art" seem to be Jewish. Indeed, both the founder (David Lewis) and the co-chair (Anne Webber) of the Commission for Looted Art in Europe are Jews. Their "non-profit" shakedown organization (website www.lootedart.com) was set up in 2001 "under the auspices of the Oxford Centre for Hebrew and Jewish Studies." What? No art recoveries for heirs of non-Jew owners? No sir. Evidently, only Jew-owned art was gathered up for Germany's art-protection program. The rest of the artworks were "passed over," so to speak.
As long as we are on the subject of the return of looted goods and wealth; may this lowly goy ask of the Rothschild Mafia: When do we slaves get to reclaim all of the interest dollars and debased monetary value that "youse guys" have looted out of our finances for all these years? Wethinks it's time to establish a "Commission for Looted Earnings of Dumb Goyim" to go after some of (((these people))).

1. Anne Webber on TV News Show in occupied-Germany --- "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!" // 2. Her co-conspirator, David Lewis // 3. American GI's retrieve "looted art" in 1944. It happened during a chaotic time so long ago, yet Webber and Lewis are somehow able to just keep finding more and more "heirs" of the "rightful owners" -- who just happen to all be Jewish.
