Why not return to the United States Balangiga Bells in the Philippines?
A brief history ... In 1901, during the Philippine-American War, many number of American soldiers were killed in a guerrilla attack in the town of Balangiga Samar, the Philippines, was said to be the worst defeat U.S. Army Battle of Little Bighorn at this time. They said that the church bells were used for the signal to attack. In retaliation, Gen. Jake "Howling Wilderness" Smith was ordered to kill anyone over the age of 10 years in the city takes also bells as booty. Imagine how'd got the nickname. over a century later, the bells are still with us in the army. one in Korea South, another in Wyoming.

If the Philippine police was present the broken head still bleeding Osama Bin Laden Geo Geo WW so it's probably one of the bells back, but as another respondent said, the spoils of war, even an unjust war being winner. .....
