Violence broke out following the recent Europa League match between Ajax Amsterdam and Maccabi Tel Aviv. A video showing the riots was misrepresented by many media outlets. DW takes a closer look.
Israeli fans attacked first. Pulled down Palestinian flags on houses (on film) and attacked a few people, destroyed a taxi. Chanting “death to arabs”, and “kill sinwar, kill them all” or something like that. Stuff that doesnt belong in a foriegn country, and designed to provoke a response. After the fighting started the cops focused on rounding up palestinians only and did not investgate the israelis. It was all a setup. Amsterdam minister is a far right zionist. Media fails to investigate it. The usual.
It looks to observers that hamas and hezbollah are good with media, but they keep being outplayed. No one mentions that the Oct 7 attacks were preceeded by Al aqsa being occupied by Israeli Jews and vandalized, with the intention of occupying it permanenetly and turning it into a temple, all with brutal IDF and police assistance. And this Amsterdam thing was obviously planned. 1500 “soccer fanbs” arrive many hours early to a foreign city and go through arab neighborhoods not near the game, shotuing threats? Thats not an organic thing, thats planned. They are terrorists.
I agree with the gist of what you say, but there’s no such thing as an Amsterdam Minister. Its either the mayor (who is not a zionist) or one of the countries ministers, some of whom can be said to be pro Israël and anti Arab.
No surprises there

Surely they published a front page retraction and apology.
