French Europe minister Benjamin Haddad said he organised the gathering in Brussels with his Dutch counterpart to tackle a resurgence in anti-Semitic violence since the start of the war in Gaza.
“I wanted us to have… a frank conversation about the causes of the rise in antisemitism and the best ways to address it and really make it a priority for the European institutions,” Haddad told French news agency AFP.
Its a mystery for everyone…
Dutch officials said Israeli fans were targeted in “hit-and-run” attacks by men on scooters on 7 November, after a Europa League match between Maccabi Tel Aviv and local team Ajax.
Tensions were high before the match after Israeli fans chanted anti-Arab slogans, vandalised a taxi and burnt a Palestinian flag in Amsterdam’s main square, according to police reports.
Speaking after the talks, Haddad said however that Europe was witnessing “one of the worst outbreaks of antisemitism” since World War II.
Ah yes, let those zionist do whatever the fuck they want and then pull the anti-semitism card when People react to those acts of violence.
Seems a bit lob-sided, no?
“When we talk about anti-Semitism, it is not just the defence of European Jewish communities that is at stake, it is the preservation… of our fundamental values,” he said.
Yeah how about we stop sucking Netanyahus Dick for once?
And I really get riled up when they throw anti-semitism (which is always bad) with anti-zionism (justified since the ongoing Genocide) into the same pot.
Anti Zionism is just euphemism for antisemitism. Ut should be anti Netanyahu. It’s all his doing.

Uhm pretty sure its not?
Ut should be anti Netanyahu. It’s all his doing.
And the israeli citizens who are complicit in their inactions.
It’s so annoying because there has been a small but noticeable rise in anti-semetism, which can probably be explained by the fact Israel is literally commiting human rights abuses which border on the definition of genocide, in fact, they probably fit it.
But instead of focusing on the genocide, and on the small increase in actual anti-semetism, these people are somehow focusing on the anti-zionism (which is completely justified in the current situation) and conflating it with anti-semetism.
It’s not anti-semetic to think we should grant palestinian statehood, ideally giving the whole of Jerusalem back to Palestinians.
Ahh yes Israelis attacking the Dutch but has any one thought about the Jews lol
