CNN correspondent Jeremy Diamond shows the damage left to cemeteries in Gaza after Israeli forces bulldozed and uprooted graves:
"Israel denies the allegations, but experts say that cemetery destruction could be evidence of Israel's genocidal intent: "there is huge symbolic meaning to the notion that not even the dead are left in peace. It suggests that disrespect towards the spiritual life of your enemy, their cultural property and heritage, it is evidence of an animus against your enemy that is unhelpful in this context".Some readers might find the images of exposed human remains disturbing. Viewer discretion advised, but the topic needs to be discussed (and here in Poland the occupant's treatment of human remains contrasts heavily with the way we archaelogists and heritage professionals here in Poland are constrained to treat exhumation of Jewish human remains and Jewish burial grounds).
