‘Pogrom’ in Amsterdam: Netanyahu sends planes to save Jews, US congressmen demand action .
The Israeli National Security Council told Israelis to remain in their hotel rooms, avoid wearing anything with Jewish or Israeli symbols and to return home early. JNS Staff.

(Nov. 7, 2024 / JNS)
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated at about 4:30 a.m. local time that he was dispatching two rescue planes to Amsterdam following a “very violent incident against Israeli citizens.”
“The harsh pictures of the assault on our citizens in Amsterdam will not be overlooked,” Netanyahu’s office stated. “Prime Minister Netanyahu views the horrifying incident with utmost gravity and demands that the Dutch government and security forces take vigorous and swift action against the rioters, and ensure the safety of our citizens.”
The Israeli National Security Council stated in Hebrew that Israelis in Amsterdam should remain in their hotel rooms and avoid the street, refrain from wearing visible Jewish or Israeli symbols and notify Dutch police and the Israeli mission about any threat or attack. The council also advised Israelis to return to home, with more planes expected.
Earlier in the day, Maccabi Tel Aviv lost 5-0 to Ajax Amsterdam in a Europa League soccer game. Various reports indicate that Israeli fans were attacked—with some reports of injuries—after leaving the game. Some reports indicated that up to dozens of people were arrested. (JNS sought comment from the Amsterdam police.)
Geert Wilders, who leads the largest political party in the Netherlands, wrote that it “looks like a Jew hunt in the streets of Amsterdam.”
“Arrest and deport the multicultural scum that attacked Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters in our streets,” Wilders wrote. “Ashamed that this can happen in The Netherlands. Totally unacceptable.”
Danny Danon, the Israeli ambassador to the United Nations, wrote that “we are receiving very disturbing reports of extreme violence against Israelis and Jews on the streets of Holland. There is a pogrom currently taking place in Europe in 2024.”
“These are the true faces of the supporters of the radical terrorism we are fighting. The western world needs to wake up now,” he wrote. “This is the time when the United Nations should immediately and clearly condemn the violence of the Palestinians and their supporters. The Dutch authorities must take decisive action against terrorism now.”
Deborah Lipstadt, the U.S. special envoy to monitor and combat antisemitism, wrote that she is “horrified by the attacks tonight in Amsterdam, which are terribly reminiscent of a classic pogrom.”
“I am also deeply disturbed by how long the reported attacks lasted and call on the government to conduct a thorough investigation into security force intervention and on how these despicable attacks transpired,” Lipstadt wrote. “In terrible historical irony, this is happening two days before the grim anniversary of Reichspogromnacht in 1938, when Nazi-sanctioned and led pogroms against Jews erupted across the German Reich.”
“This is outrageous. The government of the Netherlands must protect Jews from these attacks and prosecute the assailants,” wrote Rep. Brad Sherman (D-Calif.). “I’m putting together a group of Jewish members of Congress to discuss this with the Dutch ambassador tomorrow.”
Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-N.Y.) wrote that “the hysterical and hyperbolic demonization of Israel has led to a global outbreak of antisemitic vitriol, vandalism and violence. The single most monstrous manifestation of antisemitism is a pogrom that is presently unfolding against hundreds of Jews who were cheering on the Tel Aviv football club in Amsterdam.”
“Those inciting antisemitism now have the blood of a 21st-century pogrom on their hands,” he stated. “The situation is so dire that the Israeli government is dispatching rescue teams for Jews in danger. I am sick to my stomach that a pogrom is happening in the 21st century.”
Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) wrote that “two days before the anniversary of Kristallnacht, Jews are once again experiencing antisemitism and vicious attacks in Europe.”
“I am deeply disturbed by the reports from Amsterdam, and I will continue working to stop the rise in antisemitism across the world and in America,” he wrote.
“A horrible pogrom in action. Where are the police? Just allowing Jews to be hunted and beaten in the streets,” wrote Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.). “We will demand answers from the the Netherlands Embassy in the United States.”
What ‘globalize the intifada’ looks like
Melissa Lantsman, a member of the Canadian Parliament and deputy leader of the Conservative Party, wrote that “the scenes from the streets of Amsterdam tonight are absolutely horrific.”
“This is what ‘globalize the intifada’ looks like,” Lantsman wrote. “Don’t look the other way. Watch the footage and stand up against this lawless mob there and everywhere.”
Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO and national director of the Anti-Defamation League, wrote that “this is exactly what ‘globalize the intifada’ looks like. Mobs of hate-filled people chasing down and attacking innocent Israeli soccer fans, who they have dehumanized as ‘Zionists,’ hunting down and brutalizing ordinary people who came to Amsterdam simply to enjoy a soccer match.”
“We demand Dutch authorities do everything necessary to ensure the safety of the Israeli fans, work to apprehend and prosecute the perpetrators and apologize for this obscene, unprovoked violence,” Greenblatt wrote.
Former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett wrote that the attack “seems like a planned and organized pogrom in Amsterdam.”
The Israeli embassy in Washington stated that “hundreds of fans of the Maccabi Tel Aviv soccer team were ambushed and attacked in Amsterdam tonight as they left the stadium following a game against Ajax Amsterdam.”
The embassy shared video footage that appeared to show someone being attacked as he lay motionless on the street and a driver intentionally driving a car into a pedestrian.
“The mob, who targeted these innocent Israelis, has proudly shared their violent acts on social media,” the embassy stated. “Responses to this video so far have ranged from: they started it (by chanting), they deserve it (since they’re Israelis), and they don’t belong there.”
“Let’s get one thing clear: There is no justification for a lynching mob,” the embassy added. “Israeli soccer fans should be allowed to support their team without fear of physical danger. The days of chasing Jews down European city streets should remain in the dark annals of history.”
“We are horrified by footage coming out of Amsterdam that shows masked assailants brutally attacking Maccabi Tel Aviv soccer fans,” the American Jewish Committee said. “We urge the Dutch government to immediately act to ensure the safety of the fans and bring the perpetrators to justice.”
Agudath Israel of America stated that it is “horrified by the scenes coming out of Amsterdam tonight” which it called “a modern day pogrom,” in which “Jews are attacked by mobs of antisemites in the streets of Europe once again.”
“We urge the government of the Netherlands to immediately ensure the safety of Jewish people in their country and apprehend all of the perpetrators of tonight’s riot,” Agudah said.
Mark Dubowitz, CEO of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, wrote that “radical Islamists are tearing Europe apart, targeting Israeli Jews—even at a soccer match in Amsterdam.”
“Europeans: If you think this stops with the Jewish community, think again,” he wrote. “You’re at risk of losing your countries, democracies, and way of life.”
Earlier in the day, David van Weel, the Dutch minister of justice and security, posted about taking part in a Kristallnacht commemoration at Amsterdam’s 17th century Portuguese synagogue. At press time, neither he nor many senior members of the government had commented on the attacks.
“Antisemitic mobs attacking Israeli soccer fans tonight in Amsterdam. Pathetic response from the authorities as Israel is sending in two rescue planes,” wrote David Friedman, the former U.S. ambassador to Israel. “All this in 2024—three days before the anniversary of Kristallnacht!”

And Europe demands that the USA protect them from Russia.
Screw that. They made this Muslim bed, and now they can have nightmares on it. The EuroTrash willingly invited the Muslim hordes to conquer them. Soon, the women will be forced to wear burqa’s.
Message to Christian and Jewish Europeans. Get out NOW, while you still can. DEATH IS COMING TO EUROPE!
Dutch MP Geert Wilders:

A pogrom in the streets of #Amsterdam.
We have become the Gaza of Europe.
Muslims with Palestinian flags hunting down Jews.
I will NOT accept that. NEVER.
The authorities will be held accountable for their failure to protect the Israeli citizens.
Never again.
Geert is no.1 anti woke in Europe.
Let me make this as clear as I can. You attack Jews, we attack you.
Vote better.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the Israeli intelligence operatives quietly “disappear” the ringleaders of the pogrom.
Think about how history is repeating itself, in 2024 you have Jews hiding in attics in Amsterdam, like Anne Frank and her family did back in WW II.
According to Amir Tsarfati on his Telegram account, it was a bad attack, on par with Oct 7.

Singleness of Purpose. Barbarians Without Borders strike again. Yesterday...Today...Tomorrow.
Amsterdam is a wonderful city. So sad to see this happening.
Here’s my experience.
It’s before the ‘Vid at Christmas time, and the streets are filled with people. As I’m walking along and couple of guys come by on a scooter. The one on the back lights a large firecracker. The explosion causes everybody to flinch and duck, while the two guys laugh as they ride off. It was just a test.
Amsterdam has a large Moroccan population and they do most of the menial jobs in the city, like kitchen help and such, mush like here.
But as in many places, once the immigrant population grows to a certain point, problems start. There’s a scent of aggression just below the surface, and these attacks show how brazen they have become.
By that I mean that we tell Saudi Arabia to carve out a chunk of seaside land for Moose Limbs of this kind, Palis, Hamas, Hezbollah, all such feculent garbage included, and just tell the Saudi princes that they are going to get some visitors.
Then just transport all such @$$#0les as these, and all such rabid Moose Limbs, going forward, who engage in crimes and terrorism.
They must take them in just payment for financing, training, supporting, and otherwise growing their deadly movement.
The alternative would be straight up war with the US and maybe Israel, who might just participate for the fun of it.
End this $#*T now.
These people do NOT deserve to live among civilized Normals. But Saudi Arabia, with all their Wahabi types, would be the perfect place for them.
Oh yeah, all Saudis OUT of the US. Innocents too... nobody on their side was splitting hairs about who was innocent on 9/11 before they executed their diabolical plan.
And next time, don’t try to colonize places with mostly Muslims, like the Dutch East Indies.
And white Christian euroweenies are surprised. Islam has been in a constant state ofmwar with all thing white and Christian for 1400 years. Islam REQUIRES the murder, humiliation, and submission of all. It is right there in their evil book. Wars have been fought to rid Europe of that violent death cult. And in only a generation loberals invited it right back in and paid for it.
Many Europeans do not and did not support the unchecked illegal immigration encouraged by their governments.
I think people can vote better and even if their party gets the majority still get screwed over by that crowd in Brussels.
How soon before college campuses face mass protests decrying Israel sending rescue planes?
The Amsterdam pogrom: A planned ambush, not a sudden outburst
A witness speaking to an Army Radio reporter noted that hundreds of pro-Palestinian attackers waited in key locations waiting to pounce on Jews.
1 Avi Woolf | JFeed | 11.8.24|11:56
Army Radio reporter Doron Kadosh reported a short time ago today (Friday) that he just spoke with a friend who is in an Amsterdam hotel and was a witness to the pogrom.
He said that there were many hundreds of pro-Palestinians waiting in ambush at midnight along all the central streets in Holland, in the alleys, and next to the hotels, and waiting to pounce on Israelis coming back from the soccer game.
According to the source, “the police here does not have any tools to deal with such an event.”
Kadosh commented “Let that sink in. A pro-Palestinian organization, deployed in an organized fashion in one of the central streets in Europe, and establishing organized, prepared ambushes waiting to carry out pogroms against Jews.”

I pray the missing Jews -Israeli or otherwise- are being hidden. However, I suspect that Jihadis launched a terror operation to kidnap Israelis and set up the pogrom as cover.
