The mayor of Amsterdam has taken back comments describing violence that took place following a football match between Israeli and Dutch teams earlier this month as a “pogrom”, and has said Israel “bypassed” Dutch authorities regarding the details of the events.
Mayor Femke Halsema was speaking on Sunday evening on Dutch state broadcaster NPO’s News Hour programme.
On 6 and 7 November, travelling Maccabi Tel Aviv fans stirred trouble in different parts of the Dutch capital by chanting racist anti-Arab slogans ahead of their Uefa Europa League match against Amsterdam club Ajax.
You’re not fooling anyone. The world is watching who the violent ones are.
Oh no, the Israeli soccer fans tore down a flag and chanted some rude things - they deserve to be hunted and beaten.
WTF do you think the Jewish community around the world has been dealing with for the past 14 months???
“some rude things”
Boo hoo, those poor idf return racist zionist football hooligans
Also I can tell you what the “Jewish community around the world” has NOT been dealing with - A full scale genocide
