Netanyahu: 86th anniversary of Kristallnacht was ‘marked’ on streets of Amsterdam last night

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says the 86th anniversary of Kristallnacht was marked on the streets of Amsterdam last night when hundreds of Israeli soccer fans were attacked by pro-Palestinian mobs.

Unlike during Kristallnacht, though, the Jewish people have a state of their own, Netanyahu says in a statement during his visit to the Foreign Ministry’s situation room where he was briefed on Israel’s response to last night’s attacks in Amsterdam.

The forces behind the attacks don’t just pose a risk to Jews but the entire free world, Netanyahu adds.
