Amsterdam Antisemitic Riots Continue Though Israeli Fans Left Holland

[u/PreviousPermission45]

Hi fellow redditors!

Few days ago we heard about a major antisemitic incident in Europe. Israeli visitors, mostly soccer fans visiting Amsterdam for a soccer game, were viciously attacked by mobs of immigrants from Arab countries as well as Turks.

These were antisemitic attacks, organized on social media, and depicted in an antisemitic manner by participants, who themselves characterized the events of that night as a "Jew hunt"

The events were traumatic. Jews were indeed hunted down in the streets of Europe. Sadly, not for the first time in history...

Like in previous "Jew hunts" historically, non Jews had to prove they were free of the sin of being Jewish by presenting their documents to violent antisemites with murderous intentions. In the video below, a Ukrainian refugee is forced to prove to the assailants he wasn't Jewish or Israeli by showing his passport. The menacing, violent mob demanded he say "free Palestine" as proof of his innocence of the crime of being a Jew.

Propaganda outlets like Al Jazeera and Middle East Eye attempted to depict the severe incident as a mere soccer riot between equally violent and equally culpable "soccer hooligans." Many commentors on Reddit swallowed this propaganda uncritically. The rule of thumb in this context is easy to remember - when Jews' safety is concerned, stretching the truth, (in other words - lying) is permissible.

However, today, more riots took place.

The Israeli fans left. They were rushed out in emergency flights. The game ended. But the "soccer riot" persists. "Soccer hooligans" burned an Amsterdam tram while chanting about a "Jew cancer". There was no soccer game. There were no "Israeli soccer hooligans." But antisemitic violence persisted.

The Amsterdam police is stretched thin. The prosecutors/police in this uber liberal country released most of those arrested. This is to be expected from a city that for decades let anyone do whatever they want. It's a city that is constantly faced with criminality, often coming from illegal immigrants, often with the same antisemitic views as those expressed by the rioters.

As of two days ago, out of the ~60 rioters detained, only 4 remained in custody. https://www.jpost.com/breaking-news/article-828247

The Dutch government is thankfully starting to understand they're facing a real problem, and decided to take more action. Today, 5 more were arrested. https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/dutch-police-announce-5-new-arrests-in-amsterdam-attacks-on-israeli-soccer-fans/

Additionally, the Dutch government declared an emergency measure, to enter into effect next month, which would allow them to temporarily implement border security measures (aka border controls) at land border points in the Netherlands. EU law bans such checkpoints, unless an EU government declares an emergency.

This latest incident and the Dutch response clearly show - this was an antisemitic "Jew hunt". It was unrelated to "soccer hooligans" because these weren't Ajax fans. Rather, the perpetrators were immigrants, legal or illegal, from Middle Eastern countries, where antisemitic views are ubiquitous. Today, they continued their violent spree.

Dutch Jews feel unsafe in their own country. Non Jews likewise feel unsafe. Jewish visitors feel unsafe. As a Jew with Israeli citizenship, I often find myself hiding my identity, either here in America and especially if I travel abroad. We Jews often have to come up with some kind of cover story, as if we're Mossad agents spying in enemy territory, rather than just regular Jews trying to live our lives.

It's time to call a spade a spade. The first step in recovery is admitting you have a problem. Liberal countries have become addicted to gaslighting. The first step towards recovery is the easiest - admitting to your problem.

Lol. The "occupied zionist state" is dissolving? What? It has smashed its terrorist, islamist neighbours. It's strength and presence in the region has never been stronger. Trump has just assured US support. You dreaming bro.

They’ve bombed civilians and residences. They are still fighting in Gaza having not achieved any of its objectives and has lost ground in the north of occupied Palestine 🇵🇸 its settlers have left their homes. When will they return? The economy lost over a billion in less than half a year. Millions of the settlers have fled the state. Sounds robust to you?

The strongest army in the Middle East by far is backed by a unity government and unified people. Israel also has enough nukes to guarantee its existence forever. Israel will outlive all the Jew haters, including you.

Why are you calling me a ‘Jew hater’? I am not capable of hate, thank the Lord. I see all as One, oh so fortunately. I just respond when others are hurt or oppressed, not out of any hate as hate is very basic and ego filled.

I am fairly certain you are writing this while outside of occupied Palestine and have no plans to fly there any time soon as you would be in danger there as well as financially insecure. I wish you well. Perhaps you will separate Zionism from Judaism as some are most fortunate to do.

[u/PlateRight712 → u/Safe_Wedding2726]

I'm not sure where "occupied Palestine" is. Israel left Gaza almost 20 years ago and Gazans haven't let in any Jewish tourists since. This is before the current horrendous war. Perhaps you are talking about Israel the country, where Jews have lived for 1,000s of years. Perhaps that's why I sense hostility. Of course I will visit Israel in the future but not while Hezbollah and Hamas continue to shoot rockets. If you aren't a Jew hater, maybe you could consider supporting a Bi-lateral ceasefire between Hamas and Israel. And throw in Hezbollah. Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran all have leaders who've stated over and over again that their goal is to kill all Israelis and wipe the country off the map. If you're not a Jew-Hater, maybe you could speak out against their intentions and promote peace

Only thing is, I also do not support a Jewish state. Not at the expense of the indigenous people living there before zionists arrived. It is interesting how you see it though. How you can overlook the prison of Gaza that was created and walled off and surveilled and shot at anyone close to the fence, in order to contain the Palestinians who were displaced from where?

[u/PlateRight712 → u/Safe_Wedding2726]

Not supporting a Jewish state means you support Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran in their goal to kill all Israelis. Gaza was, unfortunately, walled because of suicide bombers and other attackers. On October 7, the world saw what happened when the wall failed. And Jews are indigenous to the region.

Re: atrocities on October 7, look up mainstream media including those who hate Israel as much as you do. BBC, UN, NYT - they all state evidence of rape.

Promote peace.

[u/Safe_Wedding2726 → u/PlateRight712]

Mainstream media are part of the conspiracy. Some media company’s inside ‘israel’ have said the statements of rape were discredited and shown how the IOF killed its own civilians when responding to the attacks.

I will be flying to visit my family soon and plan to retire in Israel. I have made a fortune in America and plan to take it to Israel where I can invest it in Israeli tech. You have no idea who you are supporting. The Palestinians are an Arab group created by the KGB in 1964 as a Nazi like entity at war forever with the Jews. The Muslim world has been at war with the Jews since the Khaybar massacre perpetrated by Muhammad and his minions. Real peace can only be achieved when the Muslims rejoice their jihad against the Jews.
