The Blaze – In the eyes of radical Islamists, it seems attacking the living was not sufficient retaliation for U.S. troops inadvertently burning copies of the Koran in Afghanistan. Now, protesters in Libya have released their wrath on the dead.
A group of Libyan men – apparently angry at the Afghanistan incident – desecrated the graves of British World War II fighters in a cemetery near Benghazi, Libya. During the Second World War, British Commonwealth forces fought Italian Axis forces in this theater for control of Libya and Egypt. In the video below, one can see the Libyans destroying tombstones, while a ladder is erected which a man climbs and begins hammering a large cross overlooking the cemetery.
