NY Times kills investigation into Israeli mob violence in Amsterdam, siding with Zionist propagandists instead

Censorship still rules The New York Times after one of its own reporters launched an investigation into the Israeli “soccer hooligan” scandal in Amsterdam, only to have it canceled by the Times‘ editors.

An internal email has leaked to show that Dutch reporter Christiaan Triebert had his investigation canceled by the Times after pitching “a visual investigation I was conducting into the events of [6-8 November] in Amsterdam,” he wrote.

“Unfortunately, that story was killed,” he says. “I regret that the planned moment-by-moment visual investigation was not further pursued. This has been very frustrating, to say the least.”

The email in question was addressed to senior Times manager Charlie Stadtlander, who used to work as a senior press officer for the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) and the U.S. Army.

Had Triebert been allowed to follow through on his investigation, it likely would have shown that the official “antisemitism” narrative was bunk, and that the Israeli soccer hooligans started the fighting with their belligerent disrespect during a moment of silence for the flood victims in Spain.

The Times had previously published a propaganda piece supporting the official narrative that Israel is the victim in all this, and that antisemites who hate Jews are responsible for tearing down flags and causing trouble because of the war in Gaza and Lebanon.

The Electronic Intifada scooped the story and produced the following video discussing the matter more in-depth:

There was no “pogrom” in Amsterdam

One of the things that the Times and many other corporate media outlets got blatantly wrong was their unsubstantiated claim that “antisemitic attacks” occurred in Amsterdam that fateful day.

“There is still precisely zero evidence that even one anti-Semitic attack took place in Amsterdam – let alone the ‘pogrom’ that Israeli government officials immediately claimed had happened,” writes Asa Winstanley for The Electronic Intifada.

“The Times has come under fire for using a video of Israeli football hooligan violence in Amsterdam last week to claim the exact opposite of what the video actually showed.”

What really happened in Amsterdam, based on independent video evidence, is that an Israeli mob provoked violence against a Dutch citizen, not the other way around. The Times was eventually forced to issue a correction after Dutch video photojournalist Annet de Graaf, who captured the footage, publicly condemned the international media at large for lying about what happened.

“In fact, the video shows a mob of dozens of Israeli hooligans attacking someone, after their team Maccabi Tel Aviv lost an away game 5-0 to Dutch club Ajax on 7 November,” Winstanley adds.

According to the Times, the video in question was “removed … at the creator’s request,” though de Graaf says this is patently untrue.

“I haven’t said that at all,” de Graaf said in response to the Times‘ claim. “It’s not true what the chief editor [Stadtlander] is saying to you in the email. Not true.”

When asked for a response of his own, Stadlander declined, choosing instead to say that “my statement to you last night constitutes our comment on the matter.” None of the other four article authors – John Yoon, Christopher F. Schuetze, Jin Yu Young, and Claire Moss – responded to requests from The Electronic Intifida for comments.

It turns out that Itamar Ben-Gvir, Israel’s far-right police minister, made up the lies about “antisemitic attacks” in Amsterdam to create a pretext for expelling all Palestinians from the land that Israel is claiming as its own.
