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 are in the same position as Ann Frank. Wtf.

The Gazans aren’t the ones doing the defacement.
Pro-Palestinian idiots or Bad Actor/False Flag idiots?
Yeah we had russians painting anti semitic crap here in France to stir shit up.
No shortage of home grown antisemitism in France.
People are scoffing at this, but in the UK you’ve got full blown fascist riots over the purely fictitious claim that a knife attack was perpetrated by a Muslim immigrant. The British far-right are burning mosques and storefronts in response to a social media slander.
Ah yes, the notoriously pro-Israel Ann Frank. What with Israel existing before 1948.
How the fuck does this help anything?

It helps conflate Palestinian opposition to the war in Gaza with German Fascism and the Holocaust. That’s to the benefit of Israeli Zionists.
I think Israelis doing this is the least likely of the scenarios suggested, the others being bigots and Russian operatives.
Israelis doing this
Plenty of possible culprits beyond the actual literal Israeli government. Could very well have been a troll with no political affiliation at all.
But the media coverage, the fixation on Palestinians as scary, violent, genocidal invaders, and the way this gets used to justify continued bombing in Gaza? That’s 100% right wing media.
