The tragic story of Jews in the Netherlands. 🇳🇱✡️ During World War II, when Jews were taken from their homes and deported to death camps, many people turned a blind eye to this and chose indifference over action. Today, when the Jewish state is under attack, many people choose to turn a blind eye to it - again. Never again is our responsibility. Never choose silence over action. Stand on the right side of history. | Hananya Naftali
