Dutch Antisemitism Reaches Five-Year High, Despite Scant Jewish Population

19

Cases of reported antisemitism in the Netherlands have hit five-year highs — despite the fact that the region has a extremely low population of Jewish people.

The Dutch Public Prosecution Service reported that of the 144  hate crime attacks in the Netherlands in 2017, 41 percent were targeting Jews. Only 7 percent, by comparison, targeted Muslims.

That’s double the number of attacks against Jews from 2016.

Jewish News Syndicate has more:

An estimated 0.2 percent of the Dutch population are Jews, out of a total population of 17 million.

Of 60-plus criminal cases of anti-Semitism in 2017, including intimidation, assault, incitement to violence and vandalism, more than two-thirds revolved around soccer, and Amsterdam’s Ajax team specifically, which rival fans and supporters call “Jews.”

Among 117 cases of vandalism, 28 incidents involved anti-Semitism, representing a 20-year high and a 40 percent increase over 2016.

But what’s most significant about the rise in attacks on Jews is that only 0.2 percent of the Dutch population are Jewish.

That means Jews are facing targeted attacks, much more so than other demographics and religions.

From The Algemeiner:

Yet at the same time the Dutch are letting what few Jews there are in that country effectively hang out to dry, their government is now saying it’s high time to accept the fraudulent idea of a “third gender” in humanity – proof positive that the promotion of transgenderism is part and parcel of One World globalist elites’ drive to smash the foundations of Western civilization (after importing Muslims into other countries, of course), to say nothing of severing humanity from the realities of nature, biology and genetics.

Its the Left/Liberal /Feminazi pro-jihadi immigration that created the mess . Third wave feminism has created pussified men who won’t step up to protect them http://tinyurl.com/y9ll38ls

while muslims are more male driven thuggish and get away with it.

“…41 percent were targeting Jews. Only 7 percent, by comparison, targeted Muslims”

Europe inadvertently brought in new antisemitism from the East in an attempt to make up for past antisemitism in the West. Biggest irony modern history.

Just watch the video too.
The euro-libs are convinced that the land belonged to the fake Palestinians.
(It belonged to the British. before that the Turks and others).

The British and Turks recognized the modern state of Israel (1950).
The UN accepted Israel as a member in 1949. it’s done!

Stalin’s USSR was the FIRST country to recognize the modern state of Israel.

NEVER UNDERSTOOD WHY THE JEWS THAT WERE LEFT AFTER THE FINAL SOLUTION WAS DESTROYED BY ALLIED ARMIES NEVER LEFT EUROPE TO GO TO ISRAEL ….. IT SEEMS THAT THEY WOULD RATHER SUFFER MORE PERSECUTION AND POSSIBLE DEATH AGAIN AND AGAIN INSTEAD OF DEFENDING THEMSELVES LIKE THE ISRAELIS DO . I GUESS THE JEWISH SHEEPLE ARE THE ONES THAT STAYED IN EUROPE HOPING FOR ACCEPTANCE WHICH NEVER CAME. ARE WE GOING TO BE SEEING THE SAME PICTURES AGAIN IN EUROPE EVEN SEEING THEM ON CNN AND MSNBC ???comment image comment image comment image

Even if there was ONE JEW left the sentiment would be the same. Yet, even one Moslem on your soil puts the entire population at risk and in danger since the Moslem is UNSTABLE and WILD.

Hard to understand this from the Dutch. Usually they are the most tolerant and easy to get along with.

Not sure if this is sarcasm. Though the article doesn’t explicitly state it, like most of Europe, the anti-semitism rises with the increase in muslim immigration. Not difficult to draw conclusions from this.

I lived in the Netherlands for 4 years. Never heard any of them complain about Jews or the Jewish faith.

Years ago I had a conversation with a nice gentleman from the Netherlands. He told me they were taught in history class that the USA was much to blame for the devastation in that country because the USA took it’s time before jumping into another European conflict. I look at these geniuses in Europe today and wonder how long it will be before they expect us to shed our blood to get them out of another mess.
