“Yesterday, the call in Arabic and Dutch was for ‘dirty
Jews from the sewers to be killed,’” Samuels told Jewish paper the
Algemeiner, a day after the second protest.
“This rally had little to do with Gaza solidarity. It was
unambiguously targeted against Jews, but also according to the Dutch
press sought to lynch journalists, who were pulled to safety by the
police, otherwise serving as silent spectators.”
Doctor Samuels had initially pleaded to the Mayor of the
Hague, Mayor Jozias van Aartsen, to undertake preventative measures to
stifle the protest to no success.
“The Dutch people today, sadly, face two forms of
terrorism”, the letter reads. “The first from those who brought down the
Malaysian aircraft over Ukraine. The second from the potential danger
at home from ISIS,” Samuels wrote.
“Mr. Mayor, you can stop the second, if you wish. If you do not, you will share responsibility for the consequence.”
Samuels presented video footage of the rally, which shows a
crowd larger than 50, waving ISIS flags and yelling “Maut al-Yahud’
(Death to the Jews)”.
