I don’t think anyone will ever be able to fully comprehend the extent of intergenerational trauma that is being created right now as we speak. This will be a stain on the history of humanity forever.

Ursula von der Leyen has now expressed more outrage over racist hate-spewing Israeli football hooligans than over the Palestinian children whose deaths these hooligans were celebrating. History will remember this.

Justin Trudeau Some football-related clashes in the streets of Amsterdam can get Western elite and media on its toes but the bloodbath in the streets of Gaza ongoing for a year fell on deaf ears. This shows value of lives of thousands of women & Childern killed in the eyes of western elite.

the way antisemitism is banded around to mean any injuries sustained by israelis is so incredibly dangerous, not to mention insulting to real victims of it. a load of hooligans went to a town, chatted shit, got banged there isnt any more to it. shame on lammy for inflaming this

Funny I don’t remember statements from world leaders condemnation and concern for the Black and brown people of the UK when they were having their homes set alight, places of worship attacked and stopped from driving due to their race in actual race riots

All joking aside. Today has been mind-blowing and to be honest frightening. Almost all of our media blatantly lying about the events in Amsterdam. The hysterical use of language like pogrom and kristallnacht. And the only brave person to tell the truth was at Daily Mail Sport 😵‍💫

Whilst world leaders scramble to condemn violence that started after Israeli football hooligans attacked people, property & chanted "death to Arabs" A UN report found 70% of those killed by Israel in Gaza are women & children Ages most represented among dead were 5 to 9 yr-olds

Since Maccabi Tel Aviv is trending, come and get to know its soccer/football fans who ignited anti-Arab hate and violence in Amsterdam, leading to reprisals from Arabs who were attacked (and who are universally being smeared as antisemites engaging in pogroms). 🧵

They're engaging in theater of "victimhood", supporting a historically violent, racist fanbase who came to Netherlands to assault and incite violence against Arabs, then flipping it to claim the reprisals and anger in return are simply targeting Jews. 9 x.com/SMohyeddin/sta…

Maccabi fans are your run of the mill racist football hooligans who overstepped the line in Amsterdam. That's pretty much the story.

Those soccer fans - or, more accurately, hooligans - were attacking people, ripping down Palestinian flags, and chanting happily that there are no kids left alive in Gaza. Oh, and it’s you and your administration that helped kill 16,000 Palestinian kids. That’ll be your legacy.

Superb academic analysis of what is and isn’t a pogrom. Last night was not one, not even close. And to describe it as such does a disservice to Jewish history & undermines the fight against all racism, including antisemitism. To do so in an attempt to justify Israel’s genocide is

Maccabi Tel Aviv fans have been involved in violence in Greece, with Cyprus fans, have cursed their own Arab players, have a reputation of racism and here returning to TA airport they chant “why are schools out in Gaza? Because there are no children left”

I've often said that those who have politicised antisemitism in the UK have made me & other Jewish people less safe. It means genuine cases of Antisemitism get lost amongst the finger pointing. A similar principle here explained by Aaron from the grim events in Amsterdam:

Matthew Leake (@mleake83) 's Twitter Profile Photo

"Israeli far-right ultras are notorious for their racism and physical violence... [Leaders' statements] failed to mention attacks against Dutch citizens".

Matthew Leake (@mleake83) 's Twitter Profile Photo

Some of the most racist politicians across Europe are casually using false claims of 'pogroms' in order to demonise Muslims and migrants and non-white people in general. Media are totally falling in line by unquestioningly quoting such language Good thread by Brendan McGeever

If Egyptian or Moroccan hooligans rampaged violently through the streets of Amsterdam chanting “There are no schools in Israel because all the Jews are dead”, they would be shot on sight. Yet This week the Dutch police, media, politicians, and monarchy have thoroughly disgraced
