On the ground reporting from Dutch young journalist Bender: https://youtu.be/ySHIOYyJ95A
Turn on English closed captions. See for yourself what happened and how these hooligans came to our town to riot. This has nothing to do with antisemitism, and everything to do with racist football hooligans supporting Israels actions in Gaza

MODERATORS
This kind is doing a better job as a journalist than 90% of the profession.
They have a donation page. I just dropped them some coins.
I heard these Israelis were going around looking to pick a fight?
Yup. The media is framing this as antisemitism, but it's not, it's anti-shitheadism. It's in this article, but they've buried it:
Amsterdam's police chief said that Maccabi supporters set a Palestinian flag on fire and attacked a taxi a day before the match was set to take place.
Ahead of the game, a Palestinian flag was ripped off a building in the city centre and riot police blocked pro-Palestinian supporters from marching toward the stadium, according to Dutch broadcaster NOS.
Yeah, that's what started it.
We’re the same people that attacked the taxi and the flag the same people who were attacked? If they were the same people, it’s anti dickehead behaviour. If it’s other supporters, connected only by their nationality, then calling it antisemitism is not a stretch.
Yes they attacked an arab taxi driver and ripped down flags, as well as chanting genocidal songs
