“In the Israeli media there’s been extensive coverage of the incident (clashes with Israeli football fans in Amsterdam), but what’s been omitted is what led up to the confrontations – the anti-Arab chants, “Death to Arabs”, the provocations and so on,” reports Nour Odeh. Odeh adds that these kinds of chants are “mostly normalised in Israeli sports” and can be heard at football games all the time. “The fact that there was such a strong anti-Arab, anti-Palestinian expression by the Israeli fans in Amsterdam, on the field and in the streets — was omitted from the news coverage because it’s so normalised,” Odeh reports.
