CWN Editor's Note: Video footage showed “two young men — both wearing a Jewish skullcap and tzitzit, the knotted ritual fringes worn by observant Jews — breaking into the cemetery, knocking over stone crosses and smashing and stomping on tombstones, leaving a trail of debris and broken headstones,” according to the report on the desecration of the Protestant Mount Zion Cemetery.
