The ‘Jew Hunt’ Expands to Belgium
On November 7, Muslims — mostly Moroccans with an admixture of other Arabs — conducted a “Jodenjacht,” or “Jew Hunt,” in Amsterdam. Gangs of Muslims went running after and assaulted Jews, including Israelis who had come to the city to cheer on the Maccabi soccer club earlier that day for its match with a local Dutch club, Ajax. Maddened by antisemitic hate, these Muslims surrounded Jews, punched them to the ground, kicked them in the head. Some required hospitalization. The Dutch were embarrassed and apologetic. “We failed the Jewish community of the Netherlands during World War II, and last night we failed again,” said King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands to President Isaac Herzog during a telephonic conversation.
Now, four days later, the antisemitic attacks have erupted in another city, Antwerp, and in another country, Belgium. More on this latest outburst of Muslim Jew-hatred can be found here:
Antwerp police arrest five, as fears of a ‘Jew hunt’ rise following calls to action on social media
by Yuval Barnea, Jerusalem Post, November
Antwerp police arrested five people on Sunday as part of proactive operations against a suspected “Jew hunt” following calls to action on social media, according to De Morgen.
A police spokesperson told De Morgen, that five people had been put under administrative arrest, a special form of arrest used in Belgium as a preventative measure rather than as part of a criminal investigation, it can last up to 12 hours.
All five were released from administrative arrest that night in accordance with Belgian law.
Belgium was not immune from the global rise in antisemitism stemming from Hamas’s October 7 attacks. City authorities recorded over 90 reports of antisemitism in the first two months of the war, according to a Sky News report. In the same report, residents highlighted that they were much more visible as the majority of the community is haredi (orthodox Judaism).
After the Amsterdam pogrom, calls began to appear on social media from Thursday to Friday for local youth to organize a jodenjacht (Jew hunt)….
Police checked groups behaving suspiciously. Anyone found in possession of flags, balaclavas, or other material that could point to imminent action risked an administrative arrest. The same applied to those who did not respond to police requests to leave the area….
Outgoing Justice Minister Paul Van Tigchelt tried to reassure the Jewish community following the Amsterdam pogrom in a meeting on Sunday. He told them that the Belgian anti-terror service was working to stop copycat attacks.
“Can this happen in Belgium? The honest answer is: why wouldn’t it happen here? We have to be realistic about that.”
Belgian PM Alexander De Croo also spoke out against the violence, saying, “There is no place for antisemitism in Europe.”
Has De Croo been in a coma for the past ten years? Europe has invited antisemitism into the continent with open arms and open wallets. And, the situation will only get worse. Islam is the New Nazi!
Belgium: Muslims scream genocidal ‘Khaybar’
chant as they beat Jews in the streets
As The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS explains, Islamic tradition holds that Muhammad led a Muslim force against the Khaybar oasis, which was inhabited by Jews — many of whom he had previously exiled from Medina. When he did so, he was not responding to any provocation. One of the Muslims later remembered: “When the apostle raided a people he waited until the morning. If he heard a call to prayer he held back; if he did not hear it he attacked. We came to Khaybar by night, and the apostle passed the night there; and when morning came he did not hear the call to prayer, so he rode and we rode with him….We met the workers of Khaybar coming out in the morning with their spades and baskets. When they saw the apostle and the army they cried, ‘Muhammad with his force,’ and turned tail and fled. The apostle said, ‘Allah Akbar! Khaybar is destroyed. When we arrive in a people’s square it is a bad morning for those who have been warned.’”
When they entered Khaybar, the Muslims immediately set out to locate the inhabitants’ wealth. A Jewish leader of Khaybar, Kinana bin al-Rabi, was brought before Muhammad; Kinana was supposed to have been entrusted with the treasure of on of the Jewish tribes of Arabia, the Banu Nadir. Kinana denied knowing where this treasure was, but Muhammad pressed him: “Do you know that if we find you have it I shall kill you?” Kinana said yes, that he did know that.
Some of the treasure was found. To find the rest, Muhammad gave orders concerning Kinana: “Torture him until you extract what he has.” One of the Muslims built a fire on Kinana’s chest, but Kinana would not give up his secret. When he was at the point of death, one of the Muslims beheaded him. Kinana’s wife Safiyya bint Huyayy was taken as a war prize; Muhammad claimed her for himself and hastily arranged a “wedding” ceremony that night. He halted the Muslims’ caravan out of Khaybar later that night in order to consummate the marriage.
Muhammad agreed to let the people of Khaybar to go into exile, allowing them to keep as much of their property as they could carry. The Prophet of Islam, however, commanded them to leave behind all their gold and silver. He had intended to expel all of them, but some, who were farmers, begged him to allow them to let them stay if they gave him half their yield annually. Muhammad agreed: “I will allow you to continue here, so long as we would desire.” He warned them: “If we wish to expel you we will expel you.” They no longer had any rights that did not depend upon the good will and sufferance of Muhammad and the Muslims. And indeed, when the Muslims discovered some treasure that some of the Khaybar Jews had hidden, he ordered the women of the tribe enslaved and seized the perpetrators’ land. A hadith notes that “the Prophet had their warriors killed, their offspring and woman taken as captives.”
Thus when modern-day Muslims invoke Khaybar, they are recalling an aggressive, surprise raid by Muhammad which resulted in the final eradication of the once considerable Jewish presence in Arabia. To the jihadists, Khaybar means the destruction of the Jews and the seizure of their property by the Muslims.
