The Background of tonight’s Attack on Jews in Amsterdam is currently Unknown, as some of the Soccer Fans claim that the Attack appears to be having been Organized, with Groups of 10-15 Arabs located in Alleys and Streets near Exits to the Stadium; while others claim that the Attacks were spurred by a Confrontation between Fans and a Large Crowd of Arab Youths after the Match, during which a Palestinian Flag was torn down from a nearby Building.
