Looking "clear-eyed" into a mirror, American pro-Israel warmongers see fascists at work.
Horrendous, beyond pale remarks by president Biden
Biden's speech on Holocaust memorial day was an extended attack on the progressives. He said campus protests represent the latest "surge" of the "ancient hatred of Jews," the same hatred that fueled Nazism. [nonsense - false and oversimplification Joe]

The smear got sympathetic coverage on broadcast media. "This is ultimately a continuation of why he ran in 2020, when he saw neo-Nazis marching in Charlottesville chanting -- quote -- `Jews will not replace us,'" Laura Barron-Lopez said on the PBS News Hour. CNN reporter Jamie Gangel echoed the Charlottesville claim. While CNN anchor Dana Bash said that the protests "hearken back" to Nazi Germany.
Biden's attack on the demonstrators carries great political risk. The Democratic base is overwhelmingly critical of Israel. By 56 to 22 Democrats say that Israel is committing a "genocide" in Gaza, according to a new poll.

Riot police beat up on pro-Palestine protesters in a large gathering near university grounds. Copy-cat harsh intervention by well trained riot police, usually needed every weekend for football hooligans.
The provocative visit in March by Israeli president Yitzhak Herzog fueled the protests against genocide in Gaza and d war crimes by Israel in general ...fascists and terrorist in the war cabinet of long-time PM Bibi Netanyahu who himself will be required to answer before the ICJ and ICC in The Hague for eleven genocidal acts.
A biased political view from the Dutch
With Islamophobe Geert Wilders historic electoral win in November, a right-wing majority are in talks for a new coalition where Rutte's VVD, now with new xenophobic leader Yesilgöz participating. Getting along well as many seats lost by the VVD went over to Wilders' PVV ... same electorate.

Translation:
The events at and around the UvA in the last few days clearly cross the red line. Demonstrations are allowed. Always. But using violence against the police and causing destruction is never allowed. Stop that!
More and more often and with increasingly harsh words, the violence in Gaza is being blamed on Jewish Dutch people. Unjustly! It is a form of anti-Semitism that we must continue to fight loud and clear. Don't be silent, don't look away. I will discuss this further on Monday in the Catshuis with numerous social organizations. Anti-Semitism should have no place in the Netherlands.
