I read The New York Times daily as a barometer - as a farmer would heed a bellwether, or an old-fashioned European anthropologist would stare at the behaviour of a faraway tribe - to see which way the liberal Zionist wind is blowing.

I strongly recommend that people with a smidgeon of sanity left in them in this exceedingly diabolical political culture do the same: never read the Times or its ilk for news and analysis, but as the archival evidence of the liberal savagery that has long sold itself as "the world order".

As soon as news of the Israeli thuggery in Amsterdam broke, the Times went into high gear to distort, deviate, manoeuvre, meander and rush to place the word "antisemitism" in headlines.

"What to Know About the Attacks on Israeli Soccer Fans in Amsterdam," read one headline of an 8 November article, explaining that "Dutch and Israeli officials described the clashes after a soccer match as antisemitic".

Bret Stephens, one of the two chief pro-Israel columnists gainfully employed at the Times, was immediately called into action that same day to decry: "The Age of the Pogrom Returns".

By 10 November, even the Israeli dissident columnist Gideon Levy had joined Stephens to condemn the "pogrom" in Haaretz. However, he pointed out another glaring fact that Stephens and his ilk habitually leave out: "An ugly, criminal pogrom against Israeli soccer fans took place in Amsterdam on Thursday. Similar pogroms, carried out by settlers, take place almost daily in the West Bank."

speaking of which...

In a 2022 speech to (Anti-Defamation League) leaders, Greenblatt said that "anti-Zionism is antisemitism". The Times of Israel noted that the "speech marked a rare moment of the organization unequivocally" making that assertion. The remarks upset activists and Jewish groups critical of Israel, and also set off controversy within the ADL.

The ADL told The Intercept that it did not consider the protests antisemitic, but Greenblatt labelled the protesting groups as hate groups.

Here are two of the so-called "hate groups" that were defamed by the Anti-Defamation League:
