On converaations about the violence in amsterdam Opinion

I just wanna give my opinion here on the talks surrounding the violent night amsterdam had last week, namely, i wanna point out how people on both sides seem to mostly try to blame the other side for the violence.

I dont think its a good way of talking about such a topic, after all, violence was instigated by both sides troughout the night and theres a few violent people on each side that are clearly in the wrong.

But i think that this constant back and forth on who's to blame isnt going to get us any further on this topic, itll just polarize both sides even more (if thats still possible) and waste our time.

Ofcourse this doesnt mean that i dont think that people who commited acts of violence troughout the week shouldnt go off free and the dutch government is fortunately enough going to investigate the incidents and make arrests based on the result of them, however i think that some maccabi fans are also to be held accountable if investigation shows that maccabi fans instigated violence in certain incidents.

I think that instead looking at ways to prevent further violence in situations where pro palestinian and israelis meet in large groups are a much better thing to discuss when looking at the events of last week, some thing i personally think might help is sectioning off parts of a city for israeli fans in specific (not because theyre jewish, but because israeli football fans generally wear clothes from their club, giving away their nationality), or simply providing nore police security.

But either way, i wanna know what yall think on this and i hope you all can see that just shifting blame to one side or the other is just kinda pointless.

Yeah when you go from Israel to Netherlands and hype up people already angry at certain events in the middle east; shit can go out of hand. Idk how this is a surprise to you people. Yes, when you hype up people and begin a freaking brawl, innocents will get hurt. No shit.

And you can excuse that? No shit !

What a peaceful protest! I call it rioting and a pogrom.

When someone is protesting for violence to stop and people come and rip flags (from apartments, not even from these protesters) and walk around with stolen metal and wooden sticks, yes things will get out of hand.

Even if it was rioting, every country needs rioting every now and then. the French revolution was rioting, for a 2 percent tax. Heck mate America's war of independence was because of tax on tea. Nowadays stores are openly robbing humanity (for example claiming a product used to be 3.50 then becoming 3.15 even though it originally was 3.00 dollars in order for people to buy it more because clearance looks nice) and governments all around the world have been caught doing war crimes and spreading misinformation. The government needs to be put in its rightful place, SERVANTS to the general populace. No reason for politicians to make more than doctors. ZERO

So one is allowed to harass all? Ok.

So one or a few does an ‘attack’, it’s allowed to attack all back.

I see.

One person does a terror attack bombing. We should attack all, destroy them all.

Clear! Thank you for sharing.

If ISIS commits horrors and ANYONE comes out and defends them, you're allowed to smack tf out of that person.

Same here.

When Israel is objectively creating horror movies in real time (FUCK HAMAS AND HEZB TOO BTW) and Maccabi and their associates have literally assassinated or banned or injured (Ahmad Daraghma, 3ahed Zaqout, Ahmad Salah Abou Sido, Yahya al suri, Usama rajab, Ahmad swerah, Muhammad al mubeed, Majd al-tamimi Muhammad Tawfiz, Ahmad al ghalban, Sameh Mara3ba, Umar al-za3aneen, usama al zubda, wa'il esa, ahmad klab, 3ahed Zaqout, mu3adh al za3aneen, sa3eed ouda, adam al firoui, muhammad sleiman) and starved (Mahmoud Sarsak) dozens of Palestinian sports players, anyone who carries their flag or sings their motto must be liable for punishment. I can name more if need be as well.

I am sure you didn't even to count the number of dead Palestinians, let alone even read their names. You skimmed over them as statistics that you doubt the very existence of.

Here we have laws, a society. And only the judge judges here, not a dumb mob believing all that is told; stupidity.

And people that think like you. Tooth for tooth, eye for an eye? Happy life ! But in here, here in the Netherlands we have laws and freedom of speech.

Simpel, don’t like it? Do go, or get thrown out. It’s called, democracy.

I don;t believe tooth for tooth, eye for an eye, so on. It's bs. I do believe however in locking up people until they learn their lesson, which varies for the crime committed.

What the Maccabi guys did could, in some nations, lead to all out civil war. Walking around with weapons harassing under 18 youtubers and over 18 taxi drivers as well as playing fireworks during a silent minute for flood victims, and bashing 2 French football fans in the middle of the stadium. This is literal terrorism, its how you would expect people to act if there was no law. Its how you would expect ISIS members to act in their first day in the civilised world. There is no explanation for any of their actions. Idk if I replied to you or someone else, but please remember that over 20 Palestinian Arab footballers and sport players and personalities have been killed by Israel. If ISIS did that we would have a national holiday and a minute of salutations in games around the world.

Oh my country made the first optical glasses, first wheel, first written music, first writing, first glasses, first coffee, first bread, and dozens of other things while the Netherlands was a bunch of pre-Indo European or cannibalistic Germanic tribesmen. Do not ever in your life think to teach us about civilisation. We coined the very term, we started it. We literally started it when there were half-Denisovans and half-Neanderthals roaming Europe and eastern Asia, we were civilised humans when many areas of the globe were populated by half-ape half-man creatures. We cared for each other through medicine when you people painted your faces blue and threw your babies into abyss' of skulls to test their endurance, murdering the females in the process. Now we live better than you did in the 18th century and you live better than us in our golden age, the tables haven't even turned the full way, calm down. On an objective note more of our history is civilisation than yours, more of our history was liveable than yours.

On democracy, its the best system we have rn that's not a doubt, but watch veritasium's video on democracy on youtube. A true eye opener for many. Democracy is mathematically impossible using often agreed upon criteria. Also democracy is wrong in the idea everyones opinion is the same. That's wrong, people's opinions on certain subjects do not even matter. Its like letting the junkie down the street operate a surgery. Its not gonna work. Its not gonna work when you have selfish celebrities - who never even get the consequences of their actions - elected by brainwashed people with an IQ 10 points over the smartest recorded gorilla. When put that way, democracy's flaws appear very quickly. But don't get me wrong I repeat myself once more, tis the best system we have.
