Degenerates policemen....YES!, what does this have to do with Amsterdam ?

Amsterdam isn't French, you don't know that...?

Learn about the French domains:

The church compound, also known as the “Church of the Pater Noster,” for the belief that Jesus taught his disciples the Lord’s Prayer there, is administered by France, as one of four so-called “French national domains in the Holy Land.”

The “French domains” — which also include the Tomb of the Kings and the Church of Saint Anne in Jerusalem and the Benedictine monastery in Abu Ghosh — have been the site of previous diplomatic incidents.

“The Eleona domain… is an area that has not only belonged to France for more than 150 years, but whose security France ensures,” Barrot told press on Thursday.

“The integrity of the four domains that France is responsible for here in Jerusalem must be respected”.

Nearly 70% of Gaza war dead are women and children, UN says

Quote:
The UN's Human Rights Office has condemned the high number of civilians killed in the war in Gaza, saying its analysis shows close to 70% of verified victims over a six-month period were women and children.

The agency said the high number was largely due to Israel's use of weapons with wide-area effects in densely populated areas, although some deaths may have been the result of errant projectiles by Palestinian armed groups.

The report said it found "unprecedented" levels of international law violations, raising concerns about "war crimes and other possible atrocity crimes".

Israel has in the past said it targets Hamas and takes steps to mitigate risk to civilians by using precise munitions.

The BBC contacted the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) for comment in response to Friday's report.

The UN agency said it verified the details of 8,119 people killed in Gaza from November 2023 to April 2024.

Its analysis found around 44% of verified victims were children and 26% women. The ages most represented among the dead were five to nine-year-olds.

About 80% of victims were killed in residential buildings or similar housing, the agency added.

The report said the data indicates "an apparent indifference to the death of civilians and the impact of the means and methods of warfare".

Gaza's Hamas-run health ministry, whose figures the UN sees as reliable, has reported a death toll of more than 43,300 people over the past 13 months. Many more bodies are believed to remain under the rubble of bombarded buildings.

The health ministry said it obtained full demographic data for a majority of those killed and reported that children account for one in three of that number.

UN Human Rights Chief Volker Türk said in a statement that "this unprecedented level of killing, and injury of civilians is a direct consequence of the failure to comply with fundamental principles of international humanitarian law".

He cited the laws of distinction, which requires warring parties to distinguish between combatants and civilians, proportionality, which prohibits attacks where harm to civilians outweighs military advantage, and precautions in attacks.

Türk called for a "due reckoning with respect to the allegations of serious violations of international law".

The IDF has previously told the BBC in response to criticism that it "will continue to act, as it always has done, according to international law".

About Amsterdam, BBC should be prosecuted for miss information....!

Read the comments of the following video:

"no school in Gaza because there are no children left"
Chanted by the Israeli football fans

Mention the racist chants and the disrespect towards the victims of Valencia

I am American living in Amsterdam. My friend was at the football match. He said there were a group of people (presumed Israeli) chanting slurs against Palastine. Thus provoking the Muslim fans. So if you taunt and provoke people you have to expect repercussions.

Shame on the BBC for once again, NOT telling the truth!

I was in Amsterdam yesterday, and as a local, I can tell you that the riot started when Israeli football supporters tore down Palestinian flags from homes and shouted disrespectful slogans about the lives of Palestinians. They were incredibly rude and provocative towards everyone, even vandalizing taxi driversÂ’ cars. Their actions clearly sparked the unrest, and now theyÂ’re playing the victim in the aftermath.

And what about the racist chants of the Israeli fans and their burning of flags - is that not to be prosecuted - Are the Netherlands going to extradite those criminals?

It is antisemitic to not allow far right football hooligans to rampage across European cities chanting genocidal songs and disrupting a minutes silence for victims of the floods in Valencia. It's a pogrom

I just saw the BBC report of the violence on TV. It reported that Palestinian flags were burnt and songs were sang about Gaza not needing Schools as all the children are dead. Then it went to Amsterdams' major, Israeli politicians and EU leaders all criticising and condemning anti-semitism. Not a single word about the Jewish provocation.

Funny how they donÂ’t mention the chants by Israeli fans boasting their murder of Gazans and Lebanese.

They think they are untouchable, thinking no one else has the right to defend themselves.

etc.......

There was a lot of police on the beat, Thursday night in the capital. More than 800 police officers were on hand. An exceptionally large number, even for Amsterdam. But they could not prevent violent assaults on football fans from Israel. On Wednesday night, the Amsterdam triangle (police, judiciary, mayor) decided to ban the pro-Palestinian demonstration at the Arena. on Wednesday night, the first reports of vandalism and violence from Maccabi supporters arrive. Footage shows Israelis pulling a Palestinian flag off a building on Rokin and setting it on fire and smashing home windows.

Footage also circulated showing hooligans beating a taxi with an iron chain, kicking a driver. After that beating, a group of taxi drivers chased the supporters into a casino on Max Euweplein. One supporter ended up in the water and was forced to shout ‘Free Palestine’. One woman warns of ‘the consequences for the Islamic community, which will be blamed’. Several activists stress the futility of violence. ‘It's going to happen anyway,’ says someone. 'Even without pro-Palestinian supporters. The battle is on. It is now the Amsterdam youth against these IOF (Israeli Occupation Forces, ed.) hooligans.' On Thursday afternoon, Maccabi supporters gather in downtown Amsterdam. They wave Israeli flags, applaud the actions of the Israeli army, chant ‘**** the Arabs’, carry banners with pictures of Israeli soldiers, and plaster the Dam full of stickers of these ‘heroes’.

That evening, a group of less than a hundred pro-Palestinians turned up at Anton de Komplein, not far from the Arena. ‘It is a different crowd than usual at pro-Palestinian demonstrations’. They are almost exclusively adolescents and young men, dressed entirely in black and with their faces covered.' They end up in a cat and mouse game with the riot police. Dozens of videos circulating online show Maccabi supporters being chased, assaulted and beaten up by hooded men with Palestinian flags on their backs. ‘Tonight the world is going to see that the People's Army don't like those Israeli dogs (sic.),’ reads Snapchat.

Police are investigating the extent to which taxi drivers were involved in the violence. ‘Player bus blocking those cancerous Jews,’ says someone in a Telegram group for taxi drivers with over 3,700 members. ‘Hang Palestinian flags in the city,’ says another. ‘They are going to come there like rats.’ Many Maccabi fans feared for their lives on Thursday night. ‘In Israel, because of all the threats, we are always mentally prepared to fight,’ says Menashe in the lunchroom. 'There, too, there is always back-up from the army or Shin Bet. But here, in a strange city, you have no safety net. We were on our own.'

Advice never, but utterly never in the Netherlands pull shenanigans with taxi drivers who are bad, you will very quickly get the entire mob of any town in the Nederland on your neck, then fleeing no longer helps.

Qatar quits Gaza peace talks after kicking Hamas out of country

Quote:
Qatar has withdrawn as a key mediator for a Gaza ceasefire and hostage deal and warned Hamas that its Doha office ‘no longer serves its purpose’, a diplomatic source has said.

The country has also told the terror group to leave the country, after the US complained they should not be able to seek refuge in the Gulf country.

‘The Qataris informed both the Israelis and Hamas that as long as there is a refusal to negotiate a deal in good faith, they cannot continue to mediate,’ the source said on condition of anonymity.

‘As a consequence, the Hamas political office no longer serves its purpose.’

Qatar, with the United Sates and Egypt, has been engaged in months of fruitless negotiations for a truce with hostage and prisoner releases.

The informed source said Qatar had already ‘notified both sides, Israel and Hamas as well as the US administration’ of its decision.

‘The Qataris conveyed to the US administration that they would be ready to re-engage in mediation when both sides… demonstrate a sincere willingness to return to the negotiating table’, the source added.

Israeli strikes on north Lebanon and Gaza kill dozens, officials and rescuers say

Quote:
Israeli strikes on northern Lebanon and Gaza have killed dozens of people including several children, rescuers and officials say.

The Lebanese health ministry said at least 23 people including seven children were killed on Sunday in Almat near Byblos, to the north of the capital Beirut.

In northern Gaza, the civil defence agency said at least 30 people were killed in Israeli strikes on two houses in the besieged enclave.

The first strike early Sunday hit a house in Jabalia, killing "at least 25" people, including 13 children, and injuring more than 30, according to the agency.

Another five people were killed in the Sabra neighbourhood of Gaza City and some are still missing in the aftermath, the civil defence agency said.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said Hezbollah had stored weapons at, and were operating from, the site it had targeted in Lebanon.

It added "numerous steps were taken to mitigate the risk of harm to civilians, including the use of aerial surveillance and precise intelligence".

The IDF said it struck a site in Jabalia where "terrorists were operating" and in the case of that strike as well, steps had been taken to mitigate civilian harm.

The details of both incidents were under review, it said.

The Lebanese health ministry said rescue workers were still searching the rubble after the strike in Almat.

Israel has missed US deadline to boost Gaza aid, UN agency says

Quote:
The main UN aid agency in Gaza says Israel has failed to meet a US deadline to boost aid to the territory or risk a reduction in American military aid.

Last month, in a strongly worded letter, the US secretary of state gave Israel an ultimatum of 30 days to ensure more aid trucks reached Gaza daily. The deadline expires on Tuesday.

The amount of aid getting into Gaza is at its lowest level in a year, the UN says. A UN-backed report recently warned that there was an imminent likelihood of famine in northern Gaza, where hardly any aid has entered in the past month.

Israel says it has substantially increased the amount of aid getting into Gaza, and accuses aid agencies of failing to adequately distribute it.

UN aid chief warns of ‘gravest crimes’ committed in Israel’s war on Gaza

Joyce Msuya tells UN Security Council that the ‘daily cruelty we see in Gaza seems to have no limits’. Israel’s military continues to bombard, besiege and prevent aid from reaching the civilian population.

Palestinian civilians have been driven from their homes by Israel’s military and “forced to witness their family members killed, burned and buried alive” in Gaza, which Msuya described as “a wasteland of rubble”.

Israeli construction along buffer zone with Syria violates ceasefire, UN says

Quote:
The United Nations says Israeli construction along a demilitarised buffer zone with Syria has led to “severe violations” of a 50-year-old ceasefire agreement, which risk increasing tensions along their shared frontier in the occupied Golan Heights.

Satellite photographs show new trenches and earth berms dug over the past few months along the length of what is known as the Area of Separation (AoS).

The BBC has filmed construction taking place alongside a military vehicle near the town of Majdal Shams, and fresh earthworks in rural land further south. The work in both locations is believed to lie within Israeli-controlled areas.

The UN Disengagement Observer Force (UNDOF) says most of the Israeli construction does not breach the AoS, but that some trenches - dug under protection from military vehicles including tanks - do cross into it, and that Israeli army vehicles and personnel have also entered the buffer zone.

Hamas: 'We're ready for a ceasefire deal'

Quote:
Hamas says it is ready to secure a Gaza ceasefire deal "immediately" but claims it has not had any "serious proposals" from Israel in months, an official for the group has told Sky News.

Dr Basem Naim also suggested Hamas has no regrets about the 7 October attacks which killed 1,200 Israelis last year, despite the ensuing war in Gaza that has killed tens of thousands of Palestinians.

He accused Israel of "big massacres" in Gaza and said Hamas has not received any "serious proposals" for a ceasefire since the assassination of its leader Ismail Haniyeh.

Appearing on The World With Yalda Hakim, he said the last "well-defined, brokered deal" was on 2 July.

"It was discussed in all details and I think we were near to a ceasefire... which can end this war, offer a permanent ceasefire and total withdrawal and prisoner exchange.

"Unfortunately [Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu preferred to go the other way," Dr Naim said.

Asked about the upcoming change in administration in the US, Dr Naim said Hamas is calling on "any president" - including Donald Trump - to take the necessary steps to stop the war immediately.

Maccabi Tel Aviv are known for their violence, anti-Muslim, Hooliganism Turkey banned them. What we see now in France and before in Amsterdam is what always happens when these Hooligans are abroad. Nothing to do with anti-Semitic violence, it is Hooliganism. Even Israeli secret services warns every country that it always goes violent with Maccabi Tel Aviv.
