Palestinian Rioters Destroy Historic Jewish Religious Site - Media Silent

For the third time in about 20 years, Joseph's Tomb, an ancient Jewish religious site located in the biblical city of Shechem, or Nablus, has been desecrated by Palestinian extremists, who attempted to set the site ablaze.

Joseph's Tomb, said to be the burial place of the biblical Joseph, was attacked by Palestinian rioters in 2000, as well as in 2015. While Israel guarantees religious freedom to all faiths, the Palestinian extremists who desecrated Joseph's Tomb are a stark reminder that religious protections in the region come only from Israel.
