Not true.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Asked to comment, Stadtlander declined to respond to that, writing only that \u201cmy statement to you last night constitutes our comment on the matter.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Downplaying genocidal Israeli violence<\/h2>\n<p>None of the four authors of the article \u2013 John Yoon, Christopher F. Schuetze, Jin Yu Young and Claire Moses \u2013 responded to requests for comment from The Electronic Intifada.<\/p>\n<p>Stadtlander denied playing any role in the commissioning or editing of the article.<\/p>\n<p>After The Electronic Intifada received Triebert\u2019s \u201cinadvertently copied\u201d email, Stadtlander sent a follow-up email in what appears to have been an attempt at damage control.<\/p>\n<p>He claimed that \u201cthe valuable work Christiaan [Triebert] and others on his team were doing did not become a standalone piece\u201d because \u201cmuch of the material was incorporated\u201d into another article the <em>Times<\/em> had published.<\/p>\n<p>But the piece that Stadtlander <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/11\/10\/world\/europe\/israeli-soccer-fans-amsterdam-attack.html\" >linked to<\/a> is yet another whitewash of the Israeli mob violence in Amsterdam \u2013 one of a number published by the <em>Times<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>It obfuscates or outright reverses cause and effect and downplays the Israeli attacks on Dutch citizens while relying almost entirely on the Israeli hooligans\u2019 claims.<\/p>\n<p>It also downplays <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ytirawi\/status\/1854988410022183024\" >a video<\/a> of Maccabi hooligans returning from Amsterdam to Tel Aviv airport chanting an openly genocidal slogan gloating that there are \u201cno children left\u201d in Gaza as merely \u201cincendiary chants against Arabs and Gazans.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Anti-Palestinian agenda<\/h2>\n<p>That the <em>Times<\/em> newsroom had a pro-Israel agenda from the outset of its coverage of the incident is apparent from reading the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/archive.is\/ErSd4\" >earliest version<\/a> of the piece still available in online archives.<\/p>\n<p>That version did not include the video by Annet de Graaf, and contained no evidence \u2013 or even allegation \u2013 of anti-Semitism, aside from the baseless claims of Israeli government officials.<\/p>\n<p>One of the main sources quoted in that version was <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/electronicintifada.net\/tags\/itamar-ben-gvir-0\" >Itamar Ben-Gvir<\/a>, Israel\u2019s far-right police minister, who wants to expel all Palestinians. \u201cFans who went to see a football game encountered anti-Semitism and were attacked with unimaginable cruelty just because of their Jewishness,\u201d the article quoted Ben-Gvir as saying.<\/p>\n<p>However, all references to Ben-Gvir were removed from the article, within <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/archive.is\/wiX91\" >less than two hours<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>To date, <em>The New York Times<\/em> has published <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/search?dropmab=false&amp;lang=en&amp;query=maccabi%20amsterdam&amp;sort=newest\" >more than a dozen articles<\/a> substantially focused on the violence in Amsterdam.<\/p>\n<p>This is an astonishingly high number compared, say, to how the newspaper has <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/fair.org\/home\/double-standards-and-distortion-how-the-nyt-misreports-sexual-violence-in-israel-palestine\/\" >ignored or consistently downplayed<\/a> grave crimes perpetrated by Israelis in Palestine, including systematic and well-documented sexual assaults and rapes of Palestinian prisoners by Israeli forces.<\/p>\n<p>The <em>Times<\/em> coverage not only includes numerous news articles baselessly spinning the Amsterdam violence as \u201canti-Semitic,\u201d but opinion columns with inflammatory headlines such as \u201c<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/11\/13\/opinion\/friedman-gaza-amsterdam-antisemitism.html\" >Amsterdam Is About Jew Hatred \u2013 and Gaza<\/a>,\u201d \u201c<a target=\"_blank\"

<em>Times<\/em> to falsely portray Israel and Israelis as victims in this case is reminiscent of how it has insistently advanced the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/electronicintifada.net\/blogs\/ali-abunimah\/ny-times-found-no-7-october-rape-victims-reporter-admits\" >debunked narrative<\/a> of \u201cmass rapes\u201d by Palestinian fighters on 7

correspondent Jeffrey Gettleman.<\/p>\n<p>Such atrocity propaganda masquerading as journalism has been used to justify Israel\u2019s genocide in Gaza.<\/p>\n<h2>A new front in Israel\u2019s genocidal war?<\/h2>\n<p>In his internal <em>Times<\/em> email to Stadtlander, reporter Christiaan Triebert explained that, after a conversation with de Graaf, \u201cI reached out to the authors of the article
