This video has started circulating on YouTube, showing Libyan Muslim youth desecrating Christian and Jewish graves in Benghazi.
The Daily Mail reports: “Headstones commemorating British and Allied servicemen, killed during World War II campaigns in the Western Desert, lay smashed and strewn across Benghazi Military Cemetery.”
It may possibly be in response to the accidental burning of Korans in Afghanistan, which the US has already issued an apology for. Or it might just be what some Libyan Muslims like to do for fun.
But whatever the reasons, desecration of graves is a despicable, cowardly act. The dead can’t fight back, and trampling on their graves breaks the hearts of their loved ones and families.
If it wasn’t for Western NATO aid, Libyans would still be dying at the hands of Gadaffi’s African mercenaries.
Way to show gratitude.

At time 1:29, you can hear them saying, “That’s Israeli writing, Hebrew” before they uproot a Jewish headstone.
