You wonder what motivates them, and can only conclude that it's self-aggrandizing stupidity: Vandals armed with hammers beheaded a 13th-century statue at Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, and damaged other statuary dating from the 12th century. Police are investigating the vandalism, which occurred in the cathedral's Portal of St. Anne earlier this week. The portal, which is undergoing restoration, faces the main square in front of Notre Dame.
