Thanks for sharing this!
You kinda got this mixed up. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn.com/cnn/2024/11/07/europe/israel-soccer-fans-attacked-amsterdam-intl-hnk
I did not. The title is correct.
The person who recorded and posted this video stated the perpetrators were Israeli hooligans.
There were other instances where Israelis were beat up, this was not one of them.
Some of the group also appear to have “La Familia” logo on the backs of their shirt.
And yellow is the Maccabi color
Nope. Here is a reaction of the maker of the video (iAnnet on X). iAnnet explains in the image below. Note that this movie was used by the Israeli embassy in USA to claim these nicely behaving, innocent football supporters were attacked. Subsequently all mainstream media copied it from there.
Well there are two stories going around, the story where the Israeli’s are the victim ofcourse getting a lot more attention. The story where the Israeli’s tear down Palestinian flags and beat up an Arab taxi driver not so much.
Bit of Column A and Column B.
Israeli fans were being belligerent. There are videos of them chanting slurs towards Palestinians, tearing down Palestinian flags, etc.
Not saying the violence they received in turn is justified, but I think the “antisemitic” motivations may be just a bit overblown, though not necessarily nonexistent.
