Pogrom: (Russian) Riot, specifically an anti-Semitic riot, sometimes carried out with the approval of czarist officials.
Report: Israeli soccer fans attacked. stabbed, and abducted in Amsterdam. Dutch police ban further demonstrations. Prime Minister Netanyahu sends two planes to evacuate Israeli citizens. Dutch Jews must fend for themselves.
History repeats itself, but with a variation on the theme. Last time the pogrom was carried out by German invaders who forced their way into the Netherlands. This time it was carried out by Muslim invaders who were invited into the Netherlands. But from the point of view of the victims, it makes no difference how the assailants got there. The only important thing is that Jews are no longer safe on the streets of the Dutch capital.
The Jerusalem Post:
“Footage circulating on social media has shown fans being beaten, chased with knives, and narrowly avoiding being hit by vehicles. Eyewitnesses told StandWithUs that they had seen attempted stabbings, people thrown in a river, with extremists beating and spitting on Israelis. Dutch riot police were sent in to respond to the attackers.”

There are few photos of Hitler smiling. He was not a smiley kind of guy. But this story would, I believe, bring a smile to his face. He may be dead, but his work goes on.
