Israel Sees 'Jew Hunt' as Islamic Terror Attack: 'Palestinian Community Foundation Incited Pogrom'
tel aviv - Israel labels 'Jew Hunt' as an Islamic terrorist attack orchestrated by the Palestinian Community Foundation. Leaders are said to have ties with Hamas.
According to a report from the Ministry of Diaspora and Anti-Semitism, the PGNL played a significant role in inciting people to action and organizing them to carry out a pogrom. The organization, known for organizing protests, allegedly provided specific instructions and broadcasted 'live' footage during the night of violence, most of which were later removed.
Minister Amichai Chikli commented, "The report we released today clearly shows that the Netherlands houses Islamic terrorist infrastructures operating under the guise of civil rights and peaceful pro-Palestinian movements, while in reality, they promote nothing but terrorism and violence."
He advocates for decisive action, stating, "This terror network must be eradicated. Dutch authorities should take legal and economic measures against the criminals and, as suggested by Geert Wilders, deport those involved."
The report highlights strong ties between PGNL leaders and Hamas, as well as a significant Syria connection.
An influential staffer, Mohammed Kotesh, is said to be in close contact with Rotterdam resident Amin Abu Rashid, previously suspected of fundraising for Hamas. Rashid has held various positions within PGNL over the years.
Former chairman Ahmad Nourallah was linked to an organization also associated with fundraising for Hamas. Nourallah expressed joy over the Israel massacre shortly after 7/10. Another PGNL staff member, Abas Adnan, described the attack as a 'blessing'. According to the report, he traveled to Gaza in the past with Abu Rashid, who met with the now-deceased Hamas leader, Islamil Haniyeh.
An interesting point is the Syria connection among the men: Abu Rashid and Kotesh originally hail from the Palestinian Yarmouk camp in Syria, migrating to the Netherlands years ago. The current PGNL chairman, Ayman Najmey, previously worked in Syria for UNRWA, the controversial UN agency for Palestinian refugees. Najmey warned in a press release that the 'mass protests in major Dutch cities will continue'.
Shortly after the violence in Amsterdam last week, the Network Contagion Research Institute (NCRI), a US organization identifying online threats and disinformation, largely blamed PGNL. The Palestinian Community Foundation allegedly coordinated the protests online in the 24 hours leading to the violence.
"The announcement for the violent demonstration on November 7 was shared in the same manner on PGNL's Telegram and WhatsApp channels," stated the NCRI. "Analysis of the WhatsApp community revealed the mobile numbers of 4 admins, one of whom was a former UNWRA employee in Syria before migrating to the Netherlands." Likely referring to Chairman Najmey.
The Jerusalem Post recently reported on an earlier report from the Israeli Ministry of Diaspora in May, describing the situation in the Netherlands as one where anti-Semitism is tolerated and violence is encouraged in some cases. There seems to be a coordinated campaign involving prominent figures spreading anti-Semitic rhetoric publicly to harm Israel.
The report mentions Abu Rashid, Gretta Duisenberg, Thomas van Gool associated with a respected human rights organization, Pax Netherlands, and Thomas Hofland of Samidoun, an organization linked to the terror group PFLP, and Rachid al-Ghazaoui, known as the rapper Appa.
Concerns are raised in the report about the Dutch government's indecisive approach, contributing to an atmosphere where anti-Semitic and anti-Israeli rhetoric is tolerated and even normalized. The government's hesitance enables pro-Palestinian activists to misuse public spaces, legal systems, and social media to escalate their campaigns.
