Here we have another non-crisis elevated into a "hate crime".
And BTW, who determines what a "hate crime" is?
excerpts:
The frequency of anti-Semitic chants and other hate crimes “means Dutch Jews are less inclined to report hate crimes, when they occur around them all the time,” Jacobs told JTA. His home in Amersfoort has been attacked five times in recent years, especially during periods of unrest in Israel.
As they approached the party, several graduates sang: “Together we’ll burn Jews, because Jews burn the best.”
Approximately 100,000 people, or three-quarters of Dutch Jewry, were murdered in the Holocaust — the highest death rate in Nazi-occupied Western Europe.
- "less inclined"? Seriously? Jews never miss an opportunity to scream 'antisemitism', in fact they routinely invent such "hate crimes".
- I seriously doubt "students" said this in PC Holland. More than likely it's another contrivance by those who profit from inventing "antisemitism".
- There is no proof whatsoever that "100,000 people, or three-quarters of Dutch Jewry, were murdered". None.

‘Jews burn the best,’ sing Dutch teens at graduation party
Chief rabbi urges authorities to act against students of Elde College, near Amsterdam

AMSTERDAM (JTA) — Dutch Chief Rabbi Binyomin Jacobs called on authorities to identify and punish high school pupils who during their graduation ceremony sang about burning Jews.
The incident happened last week during the graduation gala of the Elde College in the town of Schijndel, 70 miles southeast of Amsterdam, the Brabants Dagblad daily reported on Wednesday.
As they approached the party, several graduates sang: “Together we’ll burn Jews, because Jews burn the best.”
The phrase is part of a chant heard several times in recent years during soccer matches connected to the Amsterdam’s Ajax football team, whose players and supporters are often dubbed “Jews” because of the historic Jewish presence in the city, which is sometimes colloquially called “Mokum” after the Yiddish word for “place.” But the gala incident had nothing to do with soccer.
The student body and organizing committee of the Elde College gala expressed their sincere apologies for the incident, but Jacobs said the guilty parties “must be prosecuted for hate speech.”

Jacobs referenced the incident during his speech earlier this week in Vught, at a ceremony for Jewish Holocaust victims at a former Nazi internment camp. “Only six years ago, we were profoundly shocked when two young men screamed ‘Heil Hitler’ during a commemoration ceremony at Vught,” he said. “But today, this wouldn’t be so shocking anymore. It is happening all the time in the Netherlands, and we must face this change with honesty, and combat it with education and severe punishments for violators.”
