A quiet residential street in the town of El Bireh was transformed overnight into a car cemetery. One after another, one encounters the remains of the vehicles, torched, destroyed, in ashes; some are covered by large plastic sheets, their owner’s phone number attached.
It looks like a bombed-out scene. Nineteen cars were completely burned that night in November, a total loss; one was somehow salvaged by its owner, who had it repaired for 11,000 shekels (about $3,000). The most expensive car destroyed was a new Skoda SUV, which had cost 170,000 shekels.
You see, the word pogrom has been copyrighted by the Israeli state.
So when the Maccabi football hooligans were retaliated against by people defending their home from them in Amsterdam, that was a pogrom. This was “Israel defending themselves”.
/s if it was not obvious.
