Viral video reveals Israeli hooligans attacked Dutch police while instigating Amsterdam unrest Max Blumenthal and Wyatt Reed·November 10, 2024
Footage by a teenage YouTuber shows Tel Aviv Maccabi hooligans attacking Dutch police while pelting private homes with stones and hunting victims with metal pipes. The video offers the clearest evidence yet Israeli ultras provoked the violence which gripped the city.
A November 8 video report by a 16-year-old who publishes YouTube reports under the moniker “Bender” provided extensive on-the-ground footage of a mob of armed Tel Aviv Maccabi ultras hunting victims, throwing metal poles at police vehicles, threatening journalists, and even being detained after attacking undercover police officers.
While Western corporate media, US President Joe Biden and the Dutch government have faithfully echoed the Israeli propaganda narrative that the Maccabi ultras were innocent victims of an antisemitic “pogrom,” no mainstream media outlet has reported to date that the Israeli football hooligans attacked police vehicles and undercover officers, in addition to their assaults on Muslim taxi drivers and other Dutch citizens.
In a statement to The Grayzone, Amsterdam police spokesperson Eline Roovers refused to discuss the documented attacks by Israeli thugs on Dutch police officers and vehicles. “We cannot comment on ongoing investigations, which means we are not able to answer questions related to this now,” Roovers stated, referring us instead to a press conference by Police Chief Peter Holla.
In his statement to the press, Holla acknowledged that “a [Palestinian] flag was taken down by Maccabi supporters,” who also “vandalized a cab.” On Amsterdam’s Dam Square, he said, “a Palestinian flag was set on fire.”
The Dutch police said 5 people were hospitalized during the Nov. 7 mayhem, and 30 suffered more minor injuries.
Effectively confirming the Israeli hooligans as the source of the violence in Amsterdam, Holla stated, “peace [returned]” only after Maccabi supporters were “accompanied by the police back to their hotels with the use of buses.”
However, the police chief’s comments evinced heavy political bias in favor of the very element that instigated the violence: “I can imagine that Israelis feel unsafe,” he said. “As mentioned before, their well-being is our top priority.”
Israeli hooligans caught on camera attacking cops in Amsterdam
On November 7, Maccabi Tel Aviv ultras engaged in violent clashes with those of the local Ajax football club. The fighting followed a night in which Israeli football hooligans destroyed a taxi cab with a Muslim driver, tore Palestinian flags from private Dutch homes and burned them, chanted in support of the genocide of Palestinian children, and attacked any local resident displaying pro-Palestine sympathies.
Maccabi Tel Aviv hooligans carry a reputation for assaulting leftists and Palestinian citizens in their own country. Following a Tel Aviv Maccabi match in Athens, Greece this March, the club’s ultras surrounded a lone Egyptian man and brutalized him so badly he was hospitalized.
“We know Maccabi fans, they already had a reputation. Even in Israel they stand out,” Yuval Gal, a member of the Dutch Jewish anti-Zionist collective known as Erev Rav, told the Dutch journalist Left Laser. “We know many of them are soldiers and ex-soldiers in Gaza right now. I also tried to explain this to the police. I said, ‘Look, if somebody just came back from Gaza, and just came back from killing a lot of people, you don’t expect them to act normally in your city.’”
Indeed, many of the Maccabi Tel Aviv Ultras were confirmed as reservists in the Israeli military who had participated in the assault on the besieged Gaza Strip. And they were escorted to Amsterdam by agents from Israel’s Mossad intelligence and assassination agency.
Several Dutch citizens told Left Laser they were assaulted by Maccabi hooligans the day before their November 7 match in Amsterdam. “Every time somebody with a Palestinian symbol walked by,” one local resident said, “they did something pretty violent. Middle fingers, also physical violence.”
Another Dutch citizen said he was randomly assaulted by the Israeli thugs, who spit on him and doused him with beer: “I don’t like aggressiveness in my city. Amsterdam has always been a tolerant city towards others, but when a group so aggressively comes in, it made me not feel at home any more.”
Bender’s YouTube report provided clear documentation of the well-organized mob of Israeli hooligans roving around central Amsterdam on November 7, gathering metal pipes and wooden clubs as they hunted for victims with apparent permission from local Amsterdam authorities.
Early into the foreign goon squad’s rampage, Bender filmed them hurling weapons at a passing police van.
“Oh, metal poles are being thrown at a police car!” the YouTuber exclaimed. “They took the metal pipes from this construction site and started throwing them at people and police vans.” Ctd....The last working-class hero in England.

Cook: The West buries a genocide – by making victims of Israel's football thugs
There has never been a harder time to do political and media analysis than right now. Each day, the western establishment unmoors itself further from reality. Its priorities are so inverted, so obscene, that the most appropriate response is ridicule.
The latest example was the reaction late last week to violent clashes in Amsterdam before and after a match between Maccabi Tel Aviv and the local team Ajax.
The ridiculous framing from western politicians, assisted by mainstream media outlets, was that the visiting Israelis were “hunted down” in what supposedly amounted to a “pogrom” by Dutch street gangs, comprising mainly youths of Arab and Muslim heritage.
According to this official narrative, the violence on Amsterdam’s streets was further proof of a rising tide of antisemitism sweeping Europe and imported from the Middle East. More, the attacks were presented as having disturbing echoes of Europe's Nazi past.
Outgoing US President Joe Biden claimed the Israeli fans faced “despicable” attacks that “echo dark moments in history when Jews were persecuted”.
Israel, of course, helpfully stoked this idea by promising “emergency flights” to “rescue” its football fans - seeking to evoke memories of its airlifts in the 1980s of Ethiopian Jews to escape famine and reports of persecution, or possibly of the 1975 airlift of US embassy staff from Saigon. Nazi comparisons
Dutch politicians with their own ugly, racist agendas, as well as the country’s king, rushed to join Israel in fuelling the hysteria. Geert Wilders, the racist, far-right leader of the largest party in the Dutch parliament, said “multicultural scum” had carried out a “Jew hunt”.
Germany’s foreign minister, Annalena Baerbock, gave her country’s official stamp of approval to portray events in Amsterdam as a potential “second Holocaust”, calling the scenes “horrific and deeply shameful”.
She added: “The outbreak of such violence against Jews crosses all boundaries. There is no justification whatsoever for such violence. Jews must be safe in Europe.”
This is the same Germany where videos daily show Arab and Muslim demonstrators – in fact, anyone waving a Palestinian flag – being brutally assaulted by German police officers for protesting against Israel’s genocide in Gaza.
Baerbock seems just fine with crossing those kinds of boundaries - whether it be eradicating the right to protest or fostering a political climate that authorises Islamophobic violence, not from random football hooligans but from functionaries of the German state.
Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu exploited the opening offered by Baerbock to compare the violence in Amsterdam to the Nazi pogroms against Jews in 1938 known as Kristallnacht.
And, of course, British Foreign Secretary David Lammy took his cue from Washington, declaring he was “horrified”. He wrote on X: “I utterly condemn these abhorrent acts of violence and stand with Israeli and Jewish people across the world.” Celebrating genocide
It is not support for violence, let alone for antisemitism, to point out that this portrayal of events was utterly divorced from reality.
Videos on social media showed the visiting Israeli fans wilfully provoking confrontation as soon as they arrived in Amsterdam.
In the days leading up to the match, they had torn down and burned Palestinian flags in the city centre. They had hunted down Dutch taxi drivers and passers-by suspected of being Arab or Muslim. They had chanted genocidal death threats against Arabs.
At the game itself, they raucously disturbed a minute's silence in the stadium for the victims of Spain’s floods by singing, “There are no more schools in Gaza because we killed all the kids”.
Spain is apparently reviled by Israeli fans because, in line with international law but against Israel’s wishes, it has recognised Palestine as a state.
Video of the Israeli fans arriving home at Tel Aviv airport showed them unbowed. They chanted the same genocidal songs: “Let the IDF win and fuck the Arabs. Ole ole, ole ole ole. Why is school out in Gaza? There are no children left there!”
Like Wilders, the Israeli fans had used their time in Amsterdam to vent their bigotry at “multicultural scum”.
Even after the match, when they felt the backlash from incensed local residents, it was clear that Israeli fans were initiating the violent clashes as much as getting caught up in them.
A video shot by a young Dutch Ajax fan following the Maccabi Tel Aviv hooligans as they rampaged through Amsterdam after the match went viral on social media. It shows a large gang of Israelis prowling through Amsterdam armed with batons, throwing stones and aggressively confronting local police.
Astonishingly, Dutch police are shown either absent or keeping their distance for much of the time as the Israelis look for trouble. Notably, not one Israeli fan has been arrested. Islamophobic bile
The western media’s coverage of these events was as strangely deferential to these genocide-inciting thugs as the Dutch police’s handling of their violence.
Had visiting British fans behaved this way in Amsterdam, the police would have made mass arrests immediately.
Similarly, had British hooligans found themselves on the receiving end of violence in such circumstances, the British media would have shown little sympathy.
The clashes would rightly have been understood as ugly tribalism, a not-unfamiliar sight at football matches.
The difference here was that the clashes unleashed by the Israeli fans’ provocations had a much larger context than simple antipathy between rival teams. It was fuelled by tensions surrounding horrifying events taking place on the international stage.
There is nothing shocking or especially sinister about Dutch fans, especially those with Arab or Muslim heritage, responding with their own violence to Israeli youths – some of them presumably fresh from military service in Gaza – trying to export their own genocidal anti-Arab and anti-Muslim incitement to Amsterdam.
All the more so when the Israeli fans were amplifying the bigoted, Islamophobic bile of leading Dutch politicians.
It should have been even less surprising given the wider context: that Maccabi Tel Aviv fans were celebrating in someone else's city the Israeli military’s genocide in Gaza, among Dutch citizens who don't view Arab life as worthless or Muslims as "human animals".
Sadly, that is exactly how the western establishment has viewed Palestinians over the past 13 months, as Israel has slaughtered them in the ever-shrinking concentration camp that is Gaza.
Paradoxically, it was left to an Israeli politician, Ofer Cassif, who belongs to the tiny Hadash party, the only joint Jewish-Arab party in the Israeli parliament, to bring some perspective.
He wrote on X: “[Israeli] fans go on a violent rampage, carry out beatings, tear up Palestinian flags in the streets as if they were an occupying force, and shout Nazi slogans in favour of the extermination of a nation [Palestinians], and then whine when the situation degenerates into complete chaos and violence returns to them like a boomerang.” ‘Victims of pogroms’
As ever, the establishment media dutifully regurgitated the official presentation of events in Amsterdam. Its reporting is best characterised as industrial-scale trolling.
Headlines like this one from the New York Times took it as read that the Israeli fans were victims of antisemitism who needed saving: “Antisemitic attacks prompt emergency flights for Israeli soccer fans.”
Other outlets uncritically reported unhinged statements from Dutch officials: “We failed Jewish community during football fan attacks as we did under the Nazis, says Dutch king.”
Or, as with this Reuters headline, the media used quotation marks to justify peddling disinformation: “Amsterdam bans protests after 'antisemitic squads' attack Israeli soccer fans.”
The BBC, which trumpets its dedication to accurate reporting with its Verify service, didn’t bother to verify images from Amsterdam it used to supposedly illustrate attacks on Israeli fans.
In fact, as the Dutch photographer who shot an image used by the BBC pointed out, it showed the exact opposite: Israeli youths beating up a local Dutch resident.
The misuse of these images – disinformation – was repeated by CNN, the Guardian, the New York Times, and other major outlets, as all raced to bolster the fake news narrative being imposed by the western political class.
The photographer has since demanded apologies and corrections from media organisations that used her footage incorrectly and without authorisation. By Saturday, she had received only one - from the German news programme Tagesschau. Wellspring of thuggery
The degree to which the establishment media intentionally sought to deceive audiences to promote a distorted official narrative was illustrated by Sky News’ coverage.
Initially, before the politicians had had a chance to frame events more conveniently for their agenda, Sky’s journalist in Amsterdam reported the violence as being initiated by the Maccabi Tel Aviv fans – a club already notorious for the aggressive anti-Arab racism of its supporters.
Her report was soon pulled, however, as Israel, Wilders, Baerbock, Biden and Lammy reformulated the narrative in terms of antisemitism and pogroms. A note from the channel’s editors claimed the video “didn’t meet Sky News’ standards for balance and impartiality”.
A new, heavily re-edited video was posted that played down the Israeli fans’ violence and foregrounded Dutch politicians claiming the Maccabi Tel Aviv fans were victims of unprovoked, antisemitic attacks. A Maccabi fan was even given space to suggest the clashes recalled Hamas’ attack on Israel on 7 October 2023.
In fact, there was a parallel with 7 October but not in the sense suggested by the Israeli fan or western politicians.
Media coverage of Hamas’ attack 13 months ago has consistently scrubbed out any of the preceding context: decades of illegal, violent Israeli military occupation of Gaza; a 17-year Israeli siege that denied the Palestinian population there the essentials of life; and many months of Israeli snipers executing and crippling Palestinians who tried to protest against their imprisonment.
The Amsterdam violence was similarly decontextualised.
The media’s uncritical acceptance of this new, overtly politicised narrative paved the way for Amsterdam’s mayor to then impose a martial law-style crackdown on protest.
Predictably, the city’s police then used the ban as a pretext to arrest anti-genocide protesters en masse in Amsterdam on Sunday when residents came out to denounce the provocations and genocidal incitement by Israeli fans over the preceding days.
Conveniently for western politicians and their accomplices in the establishment media, they have provided themselves with yet another opportunity to present protests in the West against Israel’s genocide as inherently dangerous to the safety of Jews. Jonathan Cook 19h
A wild idea, I know, but might banning genocide-cheering Israeli football fans from European competitions be a good start?
Or might stopping the genocide of children in Gaza have an effect?
Too radical? Back to the drawing board then. 199 22 44
European antisemitism can be snuffed out, so their logic goes, only by stamping out the right to protest against Israel’s slaughter of Palestinian children.
There is a double deception being perpetrated here. That Jews were attacked in Amsterdam for being Jews rather than for being Israeli football thugs all too visibly trying to provoke confrontation.
And that the only proper response is to further accommodate not just Israeli football fans’ thuggery but the wellspring of that thuggery: Israel’s genocidal actions in Gaza. Israelis, not Jews
Western politicians and the establishment media, meanwhile, have made it all too evident that they share the racist sentiments of Israel and its proudly racist, thuggish football emissaries.
Contrary to what western politicians and the media would have us believe, “taking offence” isn't something reserved only for Israelis and for Zionist Jews. Other groups have sensitivities, too, even if western politicians and media systematically denigrate those sensitivities.
Lost once again in the political and media frenzy is the fact that people can feel angry towards Israel and its citizens, especially when they glorify the mass slaughter of Palestinian children, without hating Jews.
Israel, after all, has been carrying out a live-streamed genocide for 13 months, backed by almost its entire population. Anyone opposed to genocide – sadly, not enough of us, it seems – probably isn’t feeling too warmly towards Israel right now. That is a moral position. Confusing it with antisemitism is pure sophistry.
The sophistry is dangerous, to boot. It creates the very reality it claims to be trying to stop. It suggests there is some connection between being Jewish and supporting genocide. That truly is antisemitism.
In echoing Israel’s own mischievous conflations of Israeliness and Jewishness, western politicians and the establishment media have helped to intensify tribalisms that can only lead to damaging polarisation, violence and repression.
Some Europeans fete Israel, and are willing to indulge its genocide, because they wrongly imagine that this is the best way to protect Jews. Other Europeans, though small in number, end up blaming Jews for Israel’s genocidal actions.
Both of those sides are living in an entirely false and anti-democratic reality, one created for them by the deceptions of western politicians and the establishment media.
Those who reject either position – a sane, embattled majority – suffer constant gaslighting and find themselves lumped in with the genuine antisemites.
The BBC’s reporter in Amsterdam replicated precisely this type of confused narrative on Friday night, arguing that Israeli fans had been attacked for their “nationality”, while also echoing her colleagues in arguing that this amounted to antisemitism.
But “Jewish” is very obviously not a nationality (whatever Israel may claim), and loudly cheering on Israel’s Zionist ideology of Jewish supremacism over Middle Eastern, Arab populations is a political act – and at the moment, complicity in a monstrous genocide. It is not victimhood or “innocence”. Burying the story
There are two, related reasons why the media have been so ready to whip up yet another antisemitism furore out of thin air.
The media have blown up this football hooliganism story into a major international scandal, with front pages concerned for the welfare of violent Israeli football fans, at the same time as they ignore the latest chapter in Israel’s horrifying, 13-month genocide in Gaza.
Israel is currently carrying out the so-called "Generals’ Plan": bombing and starving Palestinian men, women and children in northern Gaza to force out the 400,000 of them who have been living amid its ruins.
Israel has said this population will never be allowed to return home. In other words, it is formally announcing that these Palestinians are being ethnically cleansed.
Any Palestinian who refuses to move into the concentration camp Israel has made of southern Gaza – one constantly bombed too – faces being executed as a “terrorist”.
One might imagine these horrors upon horrors would be a major news story. Not so. Nowadays, there is always some other story, however unimportant, to take precedence.
On Friday night the BBC dedicated not one second to the genocide in Gaza because the corporation, like the rest of the media, was too busy focusing on the suffering in Amsterdam of Israeli football hooligans. Those fans, remember, had threatened to murder Arabs and Muslims in Europe, to replicate what has been happening in Gaza.
The media’s priorities here are beyond obscene. Stoking hatred
What the coverage is seeking to do is not just bury the Gaza genocide and turn Israel and Israelis into the victims even as they commit genocide.
It is also intended to stoke Islamophobic hatred towards Arabs and Muslims for being present in Europe, and for insisting that we not forget about Gaza. It is to import into the West the same racist assumptions and discourse that led to Israel’s genocide.
Western establishments have willed this outcome. They are enabling it through their rhetoric and actions.
What possible justification can there be for banning Russian teams and sportspeople from international competitions the moment Moscow invaded Ukraine, when Israeli teams like Tel Aviv Maccabi are still being welcomed in Europe after 13 months of genocide?
How is it possible that fans of Israeli teams not only find themselves embraced by western leaders but treated as victims when they parade their anti-Arab, anti-Muslim bigotry - and their glorification of genocide - in European cities?
The Israeli national team is due to play France in a Uefa Nations League match in Paris on 14 November. Clashes are all too predictable. They could be easily averted by imposing a ban – similar to the Russian one – on Israeli involvement in international competitions.
What the coverage demonstrates so clearly is that the aim of leading western politicians, aided by the establishment media, is to recast Europe’s Arab and Muslim populations as a threat, as barbaric, as antisemitic, as impossible to integrate into a supposed western “civilisation”.
In other words, the transparent goal is to turn Europe’s Arab and Muslim communities into Europe’s Jews of the 1930s – reviled, distrusted and seen as a menace.
By supporting every monstrous Israeli crime, by pandering to Israel’s genocide-inciting football hooligans, western politicians and the media know they are bound to inflame tensions, especially with domestic populations of Arab and Muslim heritage. That is what they wish to do.
The aim is to promote the demonisation of Europe’s Arab and Muslim minorities. Worthless lives
We know where European bigotry towards Jews led. To the gas chambers.
And increasingly we can see precisely where western politicians and the establishment media want to take their publics in endlessly promoting Israeli-style bigotry towards Arabs and Muslims.
Already western establishments have rationalised their active complicity in the genocidal murder of Palestinians in Gaza, and the destruction of south Lebanon, by supplying weapons and diplomatic immunity.
Already they have cast Israel’s blockade of aid and the mass starvation of the 2.3 million people of Gaza as “self-defence”, and as a “legitimate war” to eliminate Hamas.
Already they have insisted that the lives of Palestinians are so worthless, so insignificant, that they can be butchered in their tens of thousands – or, more likely, hundreds of thousands – in revenge for the deaths of barely more than 1,000 Israelis on 7 October 2023.
Already they have inverted reality to depict genocidal Israel as the innocent victim and the tens of thousands of Palestinian children killed and maimed in its slaughterous rampage as the guilty party.
None of this has happened by accident. A mood is being cynically cultivated in the West, just as it was in parts of Europe in the 1930s, to suggest that some groups are sub-human, that some minorities must be expelled, or rounded up and disappeared.
That is the proper context for understanding what really happened in Amsterdam last week, as the police treated violent Israeli hooligans with kid gloves and the politicians and media recast the villains as victims.
If our politicians and media are really worried about Europe’s not-too-distant Nazi past, they would be far better advised to stop stoking an all-too-real new antisemitism: incitement against Arab and Muslim minorities.
The darkest days in Europe’s history are indeed back with us. But not because a bunch of Israeli football hooligans ended up receiving as much violence as they tried to dish out.
It is back because the West is all too ready to embrace Israel’s anti-Arab, anti-Muslim bigotry. Day by day we inch ever closer to renewed pogroms.
Not against Jews or Israelis, who enjoy the support and protection of western politicians, media and police. Rather those in most danger are the “new Jews”, the Middle Eastern populations those same politicians, media and police constantly vilify, insult, incite against and assault.
Western racism never went away. Europe’s ruling class just found a new target, and a new scapegoat.
The dark clouds from Amsterdam are gathering across Europe. Authoritarianism and fascism are once again in the ascendant. It is those trying to keep us tethered to reality who will be first in the firing line. The last working-class hero in England.

Amsterdam shows us just how brazenly the media rewrites history
We’ve just witnessed the mainstream media rewriting history in a way that would make George Orwell proud. Well, not proud, I guess, he’d probably turn in his grave because this is exactly what he tried to warn us against.
In a rare lapse, Sky News told the truth about what took place in Amsterdam, undermining the narrative of anti-Semitic violence against Israeli football fans. Clearly, someone got a call, probably from the Sky News editor whose Twitter feed is a dumpster fire of pro-Israel misinformation. Sandy Rashty hangs out with Douglas Murray and shares posts from the likes of David Collier and she is the woman in charge of Sky’s news output.
Anyways, what happened is Sky shared a clip to Twitter then deleted the clip, posted a message explaining it had not met their expectations and then deleted their explanation! Sky then uploaded a newly edited clip which was an Orwellian rewrite of history. It was one of the most blatant propaganda moments I’ve ever witnessed from a media outlet and it perfectly illustrates how badly we are lied to.
Just think about how many things we might have been lied to about over the years, especially prior to social media. There could be many moments in history that we accept as true that are anything but. This is one of the most terrifying aspects of the mainstream media: they are systematically destroying our ability to establish truth while putting themselves forwards as arbiters of truth.
We’ve all seen the footage of Israeli football fans vandalising property in Amsterdam, chasing people with metal pipes, tearing down Palestinian flags, singing racist songs, wishing death upon Arabs, and triggering mass brawls. Yet, as the evidence became undeniable, all the worst aggro-Zionists in the media doubled down. Suddenly it was “Oh, so now everyone’s telling us what they think justifies violence towards Jews?”
No, we didn’t make this about Jews, you did! We were talking about football hooligans starting a riot and then pretending they were victims of a “pogrom” when local hooligans fought back. What is it that Israelis love to say? Don’t start a fight you can’t win? Don’t launch attacks on other people’s territory and not expect a response? Well, does the same logic apply here? Of course not because the rules always favour Israel!
This might be the first time in history a clash between two sets of football hooligans has resulted in the media pretending one side was an innocent victim. I mean, we’re really siding with hooligans now? I’m old enough to remember when the media heavily condemned our own football hooligans, but hooliganism is another thing Israel is allowed to get away with. We can hardly be surprised here, given Israel is allowed to commit genocide.
Council Estate Media is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.
Starting a fight and crying when the other side hits back is a perfect analogy for the history of Israel, and to call this a “pogrom” is frankly grotesque. It is no better than trivialisation of the holocaust. The new rule is if one set of football fans attacks another, that is a pogrom, but we know that Maccabi Tel Aviv fans attacked Ajax fans and local residents first. Does that mean Maccabi Tel Aviv fans did a pogrom? You see how stupid this sounds?
One massive elephant in the room is that Mossad sent its agents to the football game “just in case”. That was literally the justification in the Jerusalem Post.
Sorry, but what the hell were Mossad agents doing at a football game? It’s not their job to police Amsterdam, that’s the job of local police! Imagine MI6 saying it’s attending a Champion’s League match in Madrid because it can’t trust local police to keep British fans safe, and then a riot breaks out, and our politicians immediately politicise it, and then the media is caught lying about what happened. I think everyone would ask what the hell British agents were doing there in the first place and why was there a cover up. It wouldn’t take a genius to figure out there was more to the violence than meets the eye.
We know, for example, that Israeli fans (probably Mossad agents) were marching up and down trains looking for a fight because this is one of the few truths the media has bothered to report. It’s just that the media quickly pivoted away from the truth in a way that should concern everyone.
If not for social media, most people would have little idea what really took place in Amsterdam. Similarly, most people would have little idea what is really taking place in Gaza. Everyone knows journalists and politicians lie to us and it’s only through alternative media sources that we have a chance of finding the truth, so, of course, they want to censor us.
Ominously, Israel has warned of a series of planned attacks at large events across the UK and Europe, following the Amsterdam clashes. We’re expected to believe it’s just a coincidence that Israel was the first country to figure out they are coming.
Given the Mossad presence at the riots in Amsterdam, I think we can figure out what is going on: there is going to be a series of false flags. Israel is going to provoke trouble, probably at sporting events, and when there is an inevitable reaction, it will be used as an excuse to ban pro-Palestinian protests and silence criticism of Israel. We’ve already seen protest bans in Amsterdam, but the locals have so far defied them.
We are going to need an awful lot of defiance because we will soon be told it’s necessary to introduce stronger “ant-Semitism laws” to prevent imaginary “pogroms”. Suddenly, everyone who is speaking out about the extermination of civilians in northern Gaza and the escalation in Lebanon are going to find they are guilty of hate crimes. We’ve been heading in this direction for some time and we are reaching our inevitable destination.
Even if the violence in the Middle East stopped tomorrow, there would be a need to censor us because the call for prosecutions at the ICC will only get louder as more evidence emerges. Censorship is self-preservation and we’re seeing the strategy for introducing censorship taking place before our eyes. It’s vitally important we call this out because the louder we are, the more we undermine their strategy. If their strategy fools no one, it fails, and people can only be fooled if those who see what is taking place are silent.The last working-class hero in England.

Re: Viral video reveals Israeli hooligans attacked Dutch police while instigating Amsterdam
What a wonderful young lad from Amsterdam. Goodness, he might have displayed a rather overenthusiastic boyish enthusiasm for his reporting, but his descriptions and analysis were spot on. For instance, when the police marshalled the "fans" along the road, it was in front of th hotel housing Palestinian refugees, he noted that didn't seem to be a good idea. . Isn't it odd and wonderful how youngsters will attach themselves so fervently to some enthusiasm from an early age, could be football, entomology, singing, film making, whatever, and pursue a successful career throughout their lives. There's a stirling reporting career ahead of him.
