Caroline van der Plas is the head of the Farmer-Citizen Movement party in the Netherlands. Subsequent to the disgraceful riots in Amsterdam this past week, she participated in a round table discussion. She spoke plainly about the fact that the rioters were mainly of Moroccan and North African background and that it was an exercise in hunting down and beating up Jews. She dismissed a comment by Dutch journalist Sven Kockelmann that it was not proven that the rioters were mainly Moroccan or North African.
A video clip of her remarks appears in the below article from the conservative Dutch news outlet Dagelijkse Standaard, which is translated by Fousesquawk as is the video itself. Many thanks to Gates of Vienna and Vlad Tepes for subtitling.
(Video) Caroline van der Plas furious at NPO (Dutch Public Broadcasting): "This is simply Jew hatred"
Politics; 9 November 19:30
At the WNL (Dutch Broadcasting Association), Caroline van der Plas lashed out hard at the politically correct fools who protect the anti-Semitic, Jew-hunting scum that have made Amsterdam unsafe. She is done with that. And she also names from where the young (perpetrators) come from. If Mr Kockelmann finds that annoying, that is his problem. Rock on, Lientje!
"This is simply organized," Van der Plas says about the Amsterdam pogrom. "This has been mostly of what we see youth from Moroccan, North African origin. They enjoy beating up Jews. And they get a lot of pleasure from it."
On that, Sven Kockelmann hilariously said that that was not yet "proven". Oh no, yeah Ok, that may be. But the Amsterdam City Hall says that there were also one or two stray native followers. Thus!
Van der Plas could make no sense of that politically correct nonsense.

Fousesquawk comment: I applaud Van der Plas for supporting the Jewish community and calling a spade a spade. She is a rising star in Dutch politics. As a side note and in the interest of fair reporting, I must concede that some of the Israeli soccer fans who came to Amsterdam to attend the soccer match between Ajax (Amsterdam) and Maccabi Tel Aviv, behaved poorly before and during the match -as soccer fans tend to do in some parts of the world (like Europe). Some of their chants were offensive to Arabs. Some Palestinian flags were torn down from buildings and balconies. There was reportedly a violent confrontation between Maccabi fans and taxi drivers (identified as Muslims). I do not condone any of that. Having lived in Europe, I have seen how many soccer fans behave. In Europe, they are called "hooligans" and appropriately so.
That did not justify the pogrom that occurred after the match was over. Organized bands of young men attacked Israelis and Jews wherever they could find them. People were beaten, kicked in the head, and in at least 5 cases, had to be hospitalized. According to one of my sources in the Netherlands, all of the arrests occurred either before or during the match. No arrests occurred after the match when the violence really began against Israeli fans and Jews.
The Maccabi fans have returned to Israel, but Dutch Jews remain in the Netherlands and must contend with this Jew-hatred, which is overwhelmingly imported. They must be protected, and those who persecute them must be removed from our societies through arrests, imprisonment, and when appropriate, deportation. That's not just in the Netherlands. That's everywhere.
