One message sent to a Dutch-language WhatsApp group the day before Thursday night's violent outbursts reads "tomorrow after the game, at night, part 2 of the Jew Hunt. Tomorrow we work them.”
Another message reads “who can sort fireworks? We need a lot of fireworks.” The pro-Palestinian activists refer to “cancer dogs,” an insult considered particularly vile in Holland.
The lackluster response of Dutch authorities was noted by many.
Dutch king Willem-Alexander reportedly said to Israel’s President Isaac Herzog in a phone call on Friday morning that the "we failed the Jewish community of the Netherlands during World War II, and last night we failed again."
