How Pro-Palestinian Mob Organized via WhatsApp to "Hunt Jews" across Amsterdam


(Telegraph-UK) Gordon Rayner - A pro-Palestinian demonstration had coincided with a European soccer match between Israel's Maccabi Tel Aviv and Ajax, the local team. Videos posted on social media showed fans of the two teams being punched, kicked and humiliated as pro-Palestinian marchers shouted anti-Semitic slurs at them. Now it has emerged that the attacks on the Jewish soccer fans were planned in advance and coordinated using WhatsApp and Telegram. A group chat posted on Wednesday, the day before the match: "Tomorrow after the game, at night, part 2 of the Jew Hunt." Footage posted online after the Thursday attack shows a man who had jumped into a canal in a desperate attempt to escape his attackers. A pursuer shouts: "Say Free Palestine, and we'll let you go." Another video shows a man who appears unconscious on the street being repeatedly kicked. A third film shows a young Israeli fan cornered in a narrow alley where his assailants knock him out with a punch to the head.
