Pogroms Return
Israeli soccer fans were ambushed and brutally attacked last night in the streets of Amsterdam. Their attackers were carrying Palestinian flags and yelling "Free Palestine" as they beat, kicked, punched, and stabbed any Jew they could find.
There's globalism in all its "glory." No one should be under the impression that a bunch of people running around in wooden shoes started beating up Jews. The rioters in the streets of Amsterdam carried out an organized, modern-day pogrom. Dozens of Israelis were injured, and at least five were hospitalized.
Geert Wilders, the "Donald Trump of the Netherlands," condemned the "Jew hunt in the streets" and demanded that the attackers be deported.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu responded to the attack, saying:
"Tomorrow, 86 years ago, was Kristallnacht, when Jews on European soil were attacked for being Jews. This has now recurred. This was marked yesterday in the streets of Amsterdam. This is what happened. There is only one difference: The State of the Jews has arisen. We need to deal with it. . . We cannot accept this."
Israel's foreign minister was immediately dispatched to the Netherlands, and Israeli airlines were helping to evacuate Jews from Amsterdam.
This is Third World antisemitism on full display. All the elites in Europe and all the elites in our country say we must allow these barbarians into our country because "These people are our future, and that's what the West, America, and the Statue of Liberty are all about."
Wrong!
This is the destruction of Western Civilization. This is what we're being told we must defend in Europe -- countries that allowed themselves to be invaded.
We're being told that if you don't support spending billions and billions of dollars to defend Europe, you're a bad person. But we're not defending the Europe of Western Civilization, free speech, and religious liberty.
We're defending nations that surrendered those values by welcoming people hostile to those values.
This is where globalism leads. A Jew walking around Amsterdam or Chicago or New York City is about as safe as a Jew walking around Gaza.
