Antisemitic chants erupted in Netherlands after Morocco's soccer defeat, with crowds invoking Holocaust imagery and Hamas slogans targeting Jewish people.
A mob of individuals of Moroccan descent gathered in the Netherlands and unleashed a torrent of antisemitic abuse, blaming Jews for Morocco’s loss in a soccer match and targeting what they believed was a location housing Israeli tourists.
Video circulating widely on X shows the crowd chanting slogans including, “All Jews are fags! Hamas! Hamas! Send the Jews back to the gas chambers!”
The incident fits a disturbing recurring pattern across parts of Europe. In recent years, soccer matches involving Moroccan teams have repeatedly triggered antisemitic riots and “Jew hunts” in the Netherlands, Belgium, and France. Moroccan-Dutch communities have been disproportionately linked to such outbreaks, where sports disappointment rapidly escalates into Holocaust references, support for Hamas, and threats of violence against Jews.
Jewish organizations and local residents have raised alarms about rising antisemitism in Europe, particularly in countries with large unassimilated migrant populations from the Middle East and North Africa.
Dutch authorities have faced repeated criticism for failing to curb such incidents or adequately integrate certain immigrant groups, allowing parallel societies where open Jew-hatred goes unchecked.
This latest event adds to growing concerns that Europe’s migration policies have imported not only people but also deeply entrenched antisemitic attitudes. Calls for stronger law enforcement, deportations for incitement to violence, and honest debates about cultural compatibility are intensifying.
