They are all "World Heritage" sites..... in other words under a UN treaty signed onto and ratified by the US in 1973, these sites, in the words of the treaty:
"World Heritage sites belong to all the peoples of the world, irrespective of the territory on which they are located."
That means that sovereignty over these sites is technically ceded to the UN.
Practically speaking, there has been no change over control and use of these areas....YET. But should the UN ever decide to exert authority over them; under international law, they would have that right.
Anyone else find this disturbing?

Yet nobody seems to care, domination by Socialism and Communism have killed off more humanity than any other ideology in the history of mankind short of Islam.
