The Amsterdam pogrom

Israeli soccer fans speak out about horrific mob attack in Amsterdam: ‘What Kristallnacht would have looked like’


Israeli soccer fans targeted in the horrific antisemitic attack in Amsterdam described Friday how they were chased through the streets along with Jewish women and kids and left with broken teeth and black eyes.

“It was a pogrom. If there had been Internet in ’38, that’s what Kristallnacht would have looked like,” a shaken victim told the Israeli media outlet Haaretz.

An Israel Defense Force officer in town for Thursday night’s soccer game told The Post that his friend was senselessly beaten by a group of 15 thugs till the bloodied pal shouted, “Free Palestine!’’
