Maccabi Tel Aviv fans: - chanted "kill the arabs" - chanted "there are no schools in Gaza, because all the children are dead" - ripped down Palestinian flags - disrupted the minute silence for the Valencia flood victims - with fireworks "Antisemitic attacks"? Get a fucking grip.
We are deeply alarmed and unequivocally condemn the antisemitic attacks against Jewish football fans in Amsterdam on Thursday evening. These abhorrent acts, which resulted in multiple injuries, are a stark reminder of the ongoing threat faced by Jewish people worldwide, even in public spaces. Occurring on the weekend of the Kristallnacht anniversary, these attacks serve as a grave warning that the fight against antisemitism remains urgent and vital.
