It seems like a Jewish right wing are determined to start a Middle East war and WWIII . Israel is the equivalent of a Fascist state and it’s time to call them out as such .
Just the actual video evidence. Mobile phones have utterly destroyed Hasbara nowadays.
So you don't know if every Maccabi fan is a Jew or Israeli
For a big enough club like them, I'd safely say they are not
Celtic would been seen as a Catholic club but have numerous fans of diff religions following them at away games. When they were attacked in Amsterdam a few years black, was it at attack on Catholics?
Go on..
Yes, the eyewitness you posted quotes.
Again, according to the Dutch authorities, these attacks were Anti-Semitic in nature.
Dutch PM has his say.
The same eyewitness who claimed they were deliberately targetting anyone in yellow, aka an Israeli…
You are not good at this are you?
Wait til they get to Turkey. That’ll be fun.
You sound very happy and full of glee that Israelis and Jews were assaulted last night.
The logic in this thread so far instead of doing the logical, rational thing and saying vile chants are inexcusable and targeted attacks on jewish supporters are inexcusable.
Maybe people should have a think as to what is informing their opinion in this specific case, is it actually facts and logic or is it speculation and selective bias in choosing bits from Twitter that suit a certain narrative.
Statement from the Dutch Police
A statement issued by Amsterdam police and prosecutors said the evening "was very turbulent with several incidents of violence aimed at Maccabi supporters"."In several places in the city, supporters were attacked," the statement said."The police had to intervene several times, protect Israeli supporters and escort them to hotels. Despite the massive police presence in the city, Israeli supporters have been injured."This outburst of violence toward Israeli supporters is unacceptable and cannot be defended in any way."There is no excuse for the antisemitic behaviour exhibited last night by rioters who actively sought out Israeli supporters to attack and assault them."

Pity some here wont have a look in the mirror and ask themselves a very simple question.
I’m always happy to see the FA&FO graph in real life, doesn’t matter who is the recipient. Generally if you don’t FA, you don’t FO.
This x1000
Some people just cannot acknowledge whatsoever that anti-Semitism exists, even when presented with such clear evidence. In fact there has been a sort of happy glee exhibited that they got assaulted.
Disgraceful posting, but nothing surprises me anymore.
Ah right, the Jews brought in on themselves. Tell us all, what did the Jews do to 'deserve' the Holocaust?
This is not the first time and will not be the last time that football hooligans travel looking for a fight. To have this incident take over the news and be described as a pogrom is really extracting the urine. It is those people who need to think rationally but we all know that there is an agenda here
They were targeting anyone who looked like they might be jewish/israeli and demanding they show their passports. People who didn't understand Dutch or Arabic were fair game. Did the Ukranian man who was attacked '**** around and find out'? He shouldn't have looked like a possible jew i guess.
Laughable attempt at baiting. I never mentioned WW2. The Maccabi fans brought it on themselves. I will give you that.
Confirmation that mobs of men were going around demanding that people show their passports to verify where they were from.
Why are they asking the question "Where are you from", not "What team do you support?"
One of the vox pops on the BBC website
'Speaking at Schiphol airport, Israeli supporter Pnina says she hid in the hotel until was safe to go outside.
"It seems like it was organised", she says, adding that attackers appeared to be looking for fans in yellow - the colour of the Israeli club's kit.'
This happens when football hooligans travel to stir up trouble and has happened for decades
I would counter that and ask what is a football club from the terrorist state doing competing in a European football competition? They clearly do not share European values or respect for human life, are not even part of Europe and should not be allowed compete.
I will repeat.
This was not just a few hooligans looking to have a scrap with each other in some bar or on some industrial wasteland.
This was mob violence, organised and directed at a specific race of people. It was violent Anti-Semitism.
EVERYONE of note from Holland and in authority states this. The Dutch PM is leaving the EU conference early to go home and get a handle on what happened.
Stop LYING and LYING about what this is and isn't. It makes you look unhinged and dare I say racist.
I've been to many Man Utd games across Europe and it's a question regularly asked by Hooligans when they are looking to attack, if you say English you stand good chance getting a kicking, say Irish and they leave you alone
Shite like this…
…is a timely reminder of why I have that poster on ignore.
Zios = Nazis. Hope you find this informative! We see you!
So you finally admit that they were targetting Israelis and by extension Jews.
If those particular fans were the ones who got beaten up, that would be fair enough.
That's not what happened though.
So if it's fair enough to beat up, and quite possibly kill, football fans just for being the same nationality as a bunch of hooligans who sang offensive songs, presumably you also think it would be fair enough to kill a larger number of random Gazans in revenge for the murder of 1200 Israelis?
Not a Pogrom they say?
Chanting death to Arabs and ripping down Palestinian flags before the match in a city that has a 10% arab population isn't clever.
Silly boys.
Also booed the minutes silence for Spanish flooding, Disgusting.
They were asking for it and they got it.
Europe is going to hell.
Not everyone from Israel is Jewish so your talking absolute shite
