Are we watching another pogrom?

https://jewishchronicle.timesofisrael.com/pogrom-in-amsterdam-five-in-hospital-62-arrested-police-say/

an organized attack on Jewish soccer fans occurred in Amsterdam on Thursday…

we were distracted by domestic politics, but it seems that the intifada supporters are actively terrorizing and hurting Jewish people outside of Israel

it seems a wave of Anti-Semitism is sweeping the world and we are ignoring it

and do we not think that once the Jewish people are eliminated, the Islamic terrorists will not turn their focus westward?

the second world war started this way…

We all know how leftist governments hate to be inconvenienced by those damn Jews. :wink:

The Netherlands has allowed their great country to be overrun by immigrants who have not assimilated into the culture they chose to move to and live in. So now…it’s the “culture” that’s being degraded…and very quickly. The UK is another example. Those natives who built their great countries truly believed they could "V"irtuously handle it and it appears…they were wrong…big time.

Soccer hooligans backing Tel Macabbi did their own rampaging before the match. Afterwards some locals rampaged in return. As usual, God’s chosen lunatics cried victim when the locals responded in kind.

From what I read the Israeli soccer (ugh lived in the US too long) fans were not totally innocent. They were mouthing off quite loudly and voraciously.

No excusing violence but it does seem the Israeli fans were not just walking along minding their own business quietly.

I have been in many football crowds before and the tribalism is fascinating to observe. Fans on both sides chant insults and things can get quite heated.

Again not an excuse for any violence or racism but this is not the start of a pogrom more a backward slide in football hooliganism. Fans always latch on to current events when insulting the other side. The insults at times can be very creative and quite funny

Yep. This. They were starting things before the match. Ripping down flags starting fights and attacking cabs

When the other side decided to retaliate the riot began.

The initial over reaction by Bibi thumping his chest and sending planes without waiting for more details was perfect.

No details. No information

Just good old immigrant bashing.

here is a link

“Verified social media videos show Maccabi fans setting off flares and fireworks, chanting in Hebrew “olé, olé, let the IDF [Israel Defense Forces] win, we will ■■■■ the Arabs”, and declaring that there were “no children” left in Gaza.“

quite the soccer fans we have there.

hooliganism at its worst.

Its really nothing new but builds into the current vogue that anti semitism is ripping through the world.

Or we are watching another example of mainstream media spreading lies and misinformation.

According to the journalist that took the image in the OP’s Foxnews link, her video shows violent Maccabi fans attacking a local man in Amsterdam. Western media claim just the opposite.

For background see:

Given the laws in Britain and other European countries against spreading misinformation that stokes racial or ethnic tensions, will western media outlets be seeing police raids and arrests?

Or do those laws only apply to random people complaining on social media?
