Does anyone have modern information on this cemetery?

[edit] added effects ?

I guess this is just a way to use a copyrighted picture ? Would it be impossible to use a picture taken by an israelian wikipedian ? What's wrong with the picture on wiki he: ? I'm not commenting on the artistic quality of the picture, it's just that it's supposed to be an encyclopedic article about the Mount of Olives... My .02€. WikiMoi 22:22, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

"with Jordanians using the gravestones from the cemetery for construction of roads and toilets, including gravestones from millennia-old graves. When Israel occupied the area in 1967, the Israelis painstakingly repatriated as many of the surviving gravestones as possible." Do you have any evidence for this, highly partisan, statement? If so, state it, if not, remove the statement.
