This is a breaking story, so the 24-hour rule applies; All reports within the first 24 hours are suspect. But we will strive to give you the most accurate information.
***
This is an unpleasant story to talk about but apparently there are mobs attacking random Jews in Amsterdam. The mobs are allegedly predominantly Muslim—though we wouldn’t be surprised if garden variety leftists are involved, too. We have seen recent reports that Iran has been funding the waves of protests on American campuses, so we have to suspect their involvement. Still, we aren’t sure at the moment how much of this is just a spontaneous soccer riot and how much this is something more planned, but there is some kind of violence going on there and it sounds like 1) it is targeting people who are at least believed to be Jews by their attackers, and 2) it seems pretty widespread. But that 24-hour rule is very much in effect and we will issue a global CONTENT WARNING because this is often going to contain videos showing violence and bad language.
But while we have given you that CONTENT WARNING, so you have the opportunity to turn away, maybe you shouldn’t turn away. Maybe you should be a witness to the hate these (alleged) Jews are facing.
First, we get this from Noa Tishby. Ms. Tishby describes herself as ‘Former Special Envoy for Combating Antisemitism and Delegitimization of Israel. Mom. Author. Acting. Producing.’ She posted this, which we think goes a good job of putting much of this into context:
#BREAKING: We are receiving extremely disturbing footage coming out of Amsterdam where Israel’s soccer team, Maccabi Tel Aviv, was playing in a soccer match. Pro-Hamas hate mobs are attacking Jewish fans in the streets of Amsterdam. They’re beaten, kicked, run over, thrown in the… pic.twitter.com/R5xzCGzugz

The cut off text reads:
They’re beaten, kicked, run over, thrown in the river. In one instance, a fan was reportedly held against his will until he said ‘Free Palestine’. When terrorist sympathizers chant globalize the intifada, this is what it looks like. Every one of these are anti-Jewish hate crimes, plain and simple.
We also get this from the Free Press’s Bari Weiss:

This isn't a warzone. It's a European capital in 2024 where a literal pogrom is happening.
It's the country of Anne Frank.
What a travesty.
According to Webster's Dictionary, a 'pogram' is 'an organized massacre of helpless people' 'specifically : such a massacre of Jews.' October 7, 2023 was one and the Jews in what we call Israel faced pogroms on a regular basis before they rebelled against that violence.

Israel's National Security Council has given instructions to Jews in Amsterdam:

1. Do not go outside. Lock yourself indoors.
2. Hide any symbols or clothing that shows you're Israeli/Jewish.
3. Get out of the country immediately.
Welcome to Europe in 2024.
It is an absolute shame that a Jewish person ever feels afraid to be openly Jewish, anywhere in the world. More so, in a city where Anne Frank had to hide for her life.
It’s worth noting that there’s complete radio silence from CNN, the BBC and Reuters about what’s happening in Amsterdam tonight
— Visegrád 24 (@visegrad24) November 8, 2024
That’s right, you have to go to social media and to websites plugged into social media like this one. Sorry, Jews, you are the wrong kinds of victims or the media favors your attackers. For one of those two reasons (or maybe both), this is not worth covering, according to the legacy media.
This is another reason why that the legacy media is dying.

Maybe also because the election of Trump has killed what little hope they had of Hamass victory. This might be a situation where it becomes darkest just before the dawn.
Aviva also wrote a post with a curse word, so we will only quote the post on Twitter/X, with mild censorship:
Kobi Itzhaki, an Israeli who escaped the violent mob in Amsterdam:
‘Running away to the hotel, bringing the wounded in with you, hearing about people who can't find them, hearing crazy explosions from all sides. F—k football, just let everyone return safely from here.’
Of course, football in this context is what Americans call soccer. We figure about 90% of you know that, but we want to help out even the 10%.

Footage going viral online of football fights in Amsterdam were apparently sparked after hooligan supporters of an Israeli team, Maccabi Tel Aviv, began attacking Palestinian flags and chanting racist anti-Arab genocidal chants across the city.
The racism sparked an angry backlash from local Muslim and Arab residents.
This is racist incitement. Israeli teams need to be banned from playing fixtures in Europe.
We have no idea if even a word of that statement is true, but even if every word of it is true, it is no justification for what we are seeing. Words and even merely ‘attacking’ flags doesn’t justify what we are seeing. At most, if the flags were the property of another person, that person would be justified in using non-lethal force to immediately protect his or her property. This chasing down and harming random Jews is impossible to justify.
In any case, being an ocean away, we can only expose what is happening there, and pray for people under attack. This article does the former, and now this author will do the latter.
Stay safe, our Jewish brothers and sisters, and any one else targeted by this violent mob.
