The statue commemorating Anne Frank, one of the most famous victims of the Holocaust, was defaced with pro-Palestinian graffiti for the second time on Sunday.

The statue is located in Merwedeplein, near the Anne Frank House in Amsterdam.

According to images published on X, the base of the statue was spray-painted with the slogan “Free Gaza” while the girl’s hands were painted with the same red color, AFP reported.

      The Gazans aren’t the ones doing the defacement.

        Hey! As an idiot, I resent that! I’m at least smarter than THAT!

        This is more the work of the morons.

      It only takes 1% idiots to give enough anecdotal ammunition for the other side. It’s not the hard numbers that were ever in their favour anyway.

        Do you apply this same standard to the January 6th morons, or do you conveniently use their actions to paint everyone on the right as fascists and lunatics?

      These days, Gaza is probably safer and more comfortable than a typical Nazi death camp.

            Death toll is one thing. You could be housed at a luxury hotel as a death row inmate.

            But the safety and living conditions is another thing.

            Kids are starving and ridden with septic diseases in Gaza as well, and everyone is slowly dying with nobody coming to help. On paper it seems pretty close IMO. Sadly.

            But who knows except those in the actual situation.
