US President Joe Biden on Friday condemned the violent attack against Israeli soccer fans in Amsterdam and said it was reminiscent of darker times in Jewish history.
“The antisemitic attacks on Israeli soccer fans in Amsterdam are despicable and echo dark moments in history when Jews were persecuted,” said Biden.

“We must relentlessly fight antisemitism, wherever it emerges,” he stressed.
The King of the Netherlands, Willem-Alexander, condemned the violent attacks in a conversation with President Isaac Herzog earlier on Friday.

“As a result of the election held on November 5, 2024, the defendant is expected to be certified as President-elect on January 6, 2025, and inaugurated on January 20, 2025.

"There are few actors in the world that pose as grave a threat to the national security of the United States as does Iran," Attorney General Merrick Garland said in a statement. "The Justice Department has charged an asset of the Iranian regime who was tasked by the regime to direct a network of criminal associates to further Iran’s assassination plots against its targets, including President-elect Donald Trump.
"We have also c...

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Friday that the 86th anniversary of Kristallnacht was “marked on the streets of Amsterdam” a day earlier when hundreds of Maccabi Tel Aviv soccer fans were attacked by anti-Israel mobs.
“Tomorrow, 86 years ago, was Kristallnacht, when Jews on European soil were attacked for being Jews. This has now recurred,” Netanyahu said referring to the events of November 9, 1938, a Nazi pogrom that marked a turning point in the escalating persecution of Jews that eventually led to the murder of 6 million European Jews by the Nazis and their supporters during the Holocaust.
“There is one difference now, though, the Jewish people now have a state of their own,” Netanyahu said in a statement during his visit to the Foreign Minis...

New York, NY - Nov. 8, 2024 - We are horrified by the organized and vicious antisemitic attack on Israelis in Amsterdam. Coming days before the anniversary of Kristallnacht, it is time for world leaders and individuals of conscience to recognize that brazen attacks against Jews is what protestors are calling for when they chant “globalize the intifada”. While we appreciate that leaders in the Netherlands and Europe have rightly condemned this brazen attack, it demands more than statements. It demands that governments take new and concrete actions - both proactive and reactive - to stop this scourge, protect Jews, and prosecute those who criminally attack us. "Never again” is not a prophecy or a prediction, it is a pledge and a commitment to stand up against...
