Jewish man forced to hide in Amsterdam river as mob hunts through streets
Recent anti-semitic attacks in Amsterdam show disturbing signs of coordination‚ with multiple victims targeted across the city. Dutch officials acknowledge historical parallels as Jewish community faces increasing threats
In a shocking turn-of-events Jewish people face organized attacks on Amsterdam streets this fall-season. President Herzog of Israel called these incidents a pogrom while the Netherlands King made a direct link to his countrys wartime past
I hid in a boat in the river for over an hour in the cold of 5 degrees while pretending to be a corpse until the police rescued me
The attacks show clear signs of pre-planning: groups use cars to chase people; share attack-videos on social-platforms and work in organized teams. Another victim tells how local shop-owners turned their backs when he needed help — his taxi driver even joined the attackers
These events didnt appear from nowhere but follow a year of growing problems since the mid-east crisis started last fall. Hereʼs what made things worse:
- Pro-terror group support at street protests
- Anti-jewish acts at schools and colleges
- One-sided news coverage
- Hate speech on social-media platforms
The situation needs quick action from top-people (business chiefs media bosses and political leaders) — they must step-up to protect jewish communities. Schools need better safety rules; news groups should give fair coverage; and social-media needs stricter control of hate content
Right now Jewish kids cant show their identity in public; religious buildings need guards; and people feel scared just walking down streets. Its time for society to stop being quiet and take real steps — this isnt just about history anymore its happening right here in modern Europe
