Mayor Jozias Van Aartsen
The Hague
Netherlands
28, July 2014

Mr. Mayor,

The Simon Wiesenthal Centre is an international Jewish human
rights organization with a worldwide membership of 400,000.
Established in 1977, with headquarters in Los Angeles, it draws the
lessons of the Holocaust to the analysis of contemporary issues of
prejudice and discrimination.

The Centre is an NGO in consultative status to the United Nations,
UNESCO, the OSCE, the Organization of American States and the
Council of Europe.

Our membership is shocked at your authorization, on two occasions,
of demonstrations in The Hague, - ironically branded as the “City of
Peace and Justice” – calling for “the Death of Jews”.

The World Mayor Association in Hanover established a code for their
candidates, led by the duty to protect all their citizens. I, therefore
wonder, Mr. Van Aartsen, how you feel about endangering your
Jewish citizens?

Attached is my 25 July letter to Prime Minister Rutte summing up
our distress that the Mayor of the Dutch capital has opened his city
to public demonstrations by terrorist wannabes – the first occasion
on 4 July, perhaps ingenuously? The second on 24 July, inexcusably.
Now emboldened, there is little doubt that so-called ISIS will
convene for a third time, to the cries of “Maut al-Yahud” (Death to
the Jews) and “Khaybar Khaybar” (the genocidal chant extolling
Mohammed's massacre of the Jews in Arabia).

Mr. Mayor, will you stop that third time and those that will follow
before enthusiastic young demonstrators turn words into actions,
threats into violence.

Mr. Mayor, as head of the municipal police, how are you dealing
with the Arabic speaking police officer who betrayed his duty to
translate the murderous slogans against your Jewish citizens,
captured on the film link attached to my letter? How can any of
your citizens now trust in the protection of their city’s law
enforcement?

Mr. Mayor, it may be argued that your authorization of these
gatherings puts you in violation of the Netherlands’ anti-terrorism
legislation.

The Dutch people today, sadly, face two acts of terrorism. The first
are those who brought down the Malaysian aircraft over Ukraine.
The Second is the potential danger at home from ISIS.

Mr. Mayor, you can stop the second, if you so wish. If you do not,
you will share responsibility, for the consequences.
Most respectfully,
Dr. Shimon Samuels
Director for International Relations
