Dutch Prime Minister Schoof has announced significant measures against perpetrators of recent antisemitic incidents, including those who participated in the Amsterdam pogrom last Thursday night:
Key Points:
- Perpetrators of the "Jew Hunt" can be prosecuted under terrorism laws
- Convictions could result in revocation of Dutch citizenship
- No legislative changes are required for implementation
- Dutch Government is exploring addition of antisemitism as specific grounds for denaturalization
The announcement comes as Holland is strengthening its response to antisemitic incidents in the Netherlands.
It also marks a significant shift in how the Netherlands will handle antisemitic hate crimes, potentially treating them as acts of terrorism with severe consequences including loss of citizenship.
