Now that we know about this I hope they find a way to keep the remains safe or bring them home. Thanks for sharing Sgt Wayne Wood

Sadly this has been going on for some time. What doesn't help is that the Indonesians by both religion and politics don't give a hoot about us. Its kind of like asking a Jew to not desecrate a Nazi grave. And the answer they'll give back is "look at how they mistreated us." And obviously - several of our sage politicians have either taken the blame or allowed the blame. Irrespective of nationality, politics or religion, international waters rules are international waters rules. But few wish to enforce them.

Its sad somebody is getting paid and probably well to see that those internal waters laws are informed, ppl need to be held accountable.

PO3 Donald Murphy - I don't think Jews are a good comparison here as with all the deaths, I do not believe Jews would do this to Nazi graves.

MAJ Byron Oyler - True, It was all I could think up as an example. Bottom lines are that international law has been in place for some centuries now yet, no one wants to enforce it. Well...they do but only when it suits them. President Murphy would have pulled all US industry out of Indonesia as a "fool me once," etc. This isn't the first time the Indonesians have done it.

Been known for some time. And yet those most angry vote in folk who continue to do business with i-nesia. I guess cheap microchips are more important than desecrating Grandpa Zeb's resting place...?
