Violence in Netherlands against Maccabi Tel Aviv fans - Robert - 11-14-2024
Violence in Netherlands against Maccabi Tel Aviv fans of November 8, 2024:
Only in regard to Israeli citizens, do the International Media seem to become "confused".
A video emerged, by a Dutch photographer Annet De Graaf (female) which appears to show:
a mob running.
At first this was reported generally, as pro-Palestinians attacking (a) Maccabi Tel Aviv fan(s).
Now the media are fact-checking this to state, at the photographer's (the photographer who made the video in question) insistence, that the mob were instead Maccabi Tel Aviv fans attacking a Dutch man.
On the following DW webpage it also states that another video taken from a different angle, confirms De Graaf's claim.
On France 24 English they claim the mob are identified because one man was wearing yellow.
My concerns:
Although the Dutch photographer Annet De Graaf claims the people shown on her video were Maccabi Tel Aviv fans, there is no indication as to how she so identified the people shown on her video.
Although there is apparently another video taken from a different angle allegedly confirming De Graaf's claim about the identity of the people shown on her video, again there is no indication how this other video confirms the people's identity, any more than the De Graaf video.
France 24 English claim one man was wearing yellow, but the yellow clothing I saw them show, did not confirm that this was the yellow and blue typical of Maccabi Tel Aviv.
[Heading:] "Fact check: Amsterdam video doesn't show attack on Israelis":
https://www.dw.com/en/fact-check-amsterdam-video-doesnt-show-attack-on-israelis/a-70763374
However, if the reader cares to scroll down that webpage, in fact right down to the bottom of it, they can see that it also states the following:
Quote:'The exact identity of the men in the video remains unclear. A spokeswoman for the Amsterdam police said in an interview with DW that the video taken by the Dutch photographer is the subject of an ongoing investigation. At present, the police cannot provide any information about the identity of the perpetrators seen in the video.'

The Media appear to be trying to make the case the mobs in the Netherlands were Maccabi Tel Aviv fans, and not as they were, pro-Palestinian Arab attackers, but unfortunately for the anti-Israel pro-Palestinian Arab terrorist Media, one can hear from the soundtrack of at least one video (not the one mentioned above), members of the mob demanding of the man they are beating-up, that he say: 'free Palestine":

From soundtrack of the latter video:
Quote:One attacker:
'For the children, for the children M*F*, for the children.'
Victim:
'I give you my money, I give you my money.'
Same attacker:
'Free Palestine now. Free Palestine.'
Another attacker:
'Free Palestine, free Palestine.'

Apparently five people were hospitalized, while others were arrested. Regarding all those people, the Dutch police have not yet confirmed the nationalities of any of them.
