The statue commemorating Anne Frank, one of the most famous victims of the Holocaust, was defaced with pro-Palestinian graffiti for the second time on Sunday.

The statue is located in Merwedeplein, near the Anne Frank House in Amsterdam.

According to images published on X, the base of the statue was spray-painted with the slogan “Free Gaza” while the girl’s hands were painted with the same red color, AFP reported.

    Yes that is my point. He wasn’t doing actual racist shit so they had to make stuff up. Genociders won’t have that problem here.

      And large numbers of White Americans believed it, because they were primed to assume colored people were monsters.

      Genociders won’t have that problem here.

      Stocking the hate towards Arabs is a pivotal part of the war effort against Gaza.

        And, in my opinion, spray painting “free gaza” on a statue depicting a jewish teenager who died in the holocaust is only going to help them have something to point at and say “see, we’re right”

          If you look at a Holocaust victim’s memorial tagged with a condemnation of another Holocaust, and you think you yourself “Arab people deserve to be exterminated”…
