    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 bowing to Netanyahus tendencies 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.

        So Netanyahu is illegaly occupying the Westbank, East Jerusalem and Gaza since 1967 all by himself?

        That man must make biblical Goliath look like an ant.

        Anti Zionism is just euphemism for antisemitism

        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.
