...they were chased by “Arab youths” who shouted “free Palestine” and ‘f---ing Jews” before threatening them with knives and sticks.

Earlier in November, a fan of Makkabi Berlin who was wearing the club’s scarf had to be taken to hospital after a man in a café asked him whether he was Jewish and then punched him in the face.

The only source on the alleged mob is the father of one child. Police apparently wasn't called the day of the incident, which seems quite fishy to me.

Also Makkabi clubs in Germany are celebrating the IDFs onslaught in Gaza and giving out Trophies with an Israel "from the river to the sea" and also the annexed Golan heights included.

Especially after the lies spread about Maccabi in Amsterdam i would not consider the claims of Makkabi members at face value, until verified by other sources. This does explicitly not mean that i believe what they said to have happened to be false. But they are not a trustworthy source at the moment. Especially as Iris Spranger is involved, who is not a city councillor but minister of the interior of the state of Berlin and political head of a police force internationally renown for brutalizing Palestinian protests, in particular women and children, but also antizionist Jews.

Also note how the unknown assailants were immediately "identified" as an "arab mob". Berlin is ramping up its racism against Arabs, for which the conflicts around Israels wars is the perfect pretense. Shortly before being elected as new Major, the racist Kai Wegner called for police to reveal the names of teenage suspects, so by the name it could be judged, if they were "real Germans" or merely "German citizens".
