This was discovered to be the work of the Jews, the same people who, during the former (1860) massacre, distinguished themselves by standing at the doors of their houses, and voluntarily offering lemonade to refresh the Mahommedans, hot and weary with the slaughter of the Christians, and who, in many well authenticated instances, offered first aid and concealment to the terror-stricken Christians, and then brought in the Turks to murder them. Some three hundred of these Jews are under the protection of various European Consulates, and can thus with impunity laugh at the authority of the Turks, and wreak their hatred on the co-religionists of their protectors".

--
The crosses were chalked up by the Jews of Damascus in an attempt to enrage the Muslims at the Christians and start another massacre. There had been a massacre of Christians 10 years earlier in 1860, the mentioned lemonade event, but this time the British Consul at the time, Burton, caught them at the cross-drawing and stopped it, leading to a letter campaign from the local Jews, who were also upset that Burton wasn't willing to use Consular power to enforce their loans against local villagers for them. This letter campaign eventually got Burton dismissed. |
