Chaos reportedly erupted in Amsterdam late Sunday night as masked attackers stormed a Hanukkah concert, sending concertgoers into panic. The assault comes just hours after a deadly assault on Bondi Beach (Australia), where over 15 Jews have been killed during a Hanukkah event. Eyewitnesses described terrified attendees fleeing the venue as security forces arrived to secure the area. “This is an appalling attack on innocent people celebrating their faith,” said one member of the public who witnessed the event. Emergency services were reportedly on site to assist those affected, so far no deaths have been reported.

Sources suggest that the investigation into the Amsterdam incident is ongoing, and official confirmation of what occurred is still pending. Residents are urged to remain cautious and to follow updates from official sources as more information becomes available.

Cops worldwide need to be proactive and start shooting bad guys. Until then they are just teasing murderers to commit more crime.

What to do about this? Ban masks, islamists or Hanukkah events? That’s easy, ban Hanukkah along with Christmas, just to be safe.

RE: Please Lord, don’t let there be any deaths!

Amen.

The candles lit on a menorah symbolize light from the Divine Presence brought into the world. The eight days of adding one more candle per night commemorate the hope and willingness of Jews to have perseverance against enemies, as in ancient times.

Today’s enemies choose this time of hope and light to commit murder.

We cannot let the enemies win.

Kinda like Willie Sutton and his bank robberies.

Investigator: “Why did you target a Hannakuh gathering?”

Mohammed: “Cause that’s where the Jews are!”

Thank you for your prayers.

I believe this was last Sunday (first day of Chanukah), so I think everything is relatively OK.

I was in Amsterdam at the end of tulip season a year 1/2 ago. The was an antisemitic/Israel protest on a small side street. TV cameras would have made it seem large but it wasn’t really that big. 80-100? Ugly people and surprisingly maybe more than half women.

When “Globalize the Intifada” means kill any Jew anywhere in the world, it demonstrates that the goal of palestinians is Jew murder, not a state.

But we already knew that.

By some historians’ counts, the “plaestinians” have been offered or were very near statehood eight (8) separate times. Each time they refused the state, and preferred to continue to murder Jews.

The Jews need to take care of this business, very privately. Only by word getting out afterward will this crap cease.

The old nazis were scared.
