Anti-Israel protesters call ‘Kill the Jews’ in Vienna

[Mosby]

Bosnian soccer fans joined a pro-Palestinian demonstration in Vienna on Friday and shouted anti-Semitic epithets in one of the city’s central plazas, Austrian newspaper Der Standard reported.

A video posted to YouTube shows several dozen pro-Palestinian demonstrators waving Palestinian flags in Stephansplatz and calling “free, free Palestine!”

The Bosnian fans dressed in blue, yellow and white are seen standing among the protesters and joining them in their cries, before setting out on a chant of their own: “Ubij, ubij Židove!” or “Kill, kill the Jews!”

Bosnians were in the city to watch a match between Austria and Bosnia-Herzegovina later in the day.

1. Can't say I am all that surprised.

It seems more and more reports are coming out about the racism and bigotry of football fans in Europe. I don't know if this is an increase or at the same level and is just now making the headlines, but it is discouraging, nonetheless.
