Behind the Aegis's JournalAt Dutch COVID protest, men dressed as Nazis make mock arrest of participant wearing yellow star
Several men dressed like Nazis were seen pretending to arrest a man wearing a yellow star as part of a rally against COVID-19 measures in the Netherlands.
Saturdays incident in Urk, near Amsterdam, was the latest among the hundreds of rallies worldwide in which protesters have drawn what they regard as parallels between the persecution of Jews by Nazis to rules meant to curb the spread of the virus.
But the protest in Urk was unusual because of its theatrics and the fact that it happened where the Nazis actually rounded up Jews at gunpoint.
The 10 men involved in the incident apologized for their actions in writing in a statement obtained by the Hart van Nederland television program.
We wish to express out sincere apologies, the statement read, adding that the protest crossed a line that it should have not crossed. The protesters said they did not mean to offend Jews.

How fucking charming! You know, a country with a history of liquidating its Jews really shouldn't do shit like this!
