Two Israeli soldiers vacationing in Amsterdam fled to Israel after pro-Palestine groups identified them and sought to pursue legal action against the pair for war crimes in Gaza.

This marks the first time active-duty soldiers have faced such a situation, as past cases primarily involved reservists, the Quds News Network (QNN) reported.

The two soldiers had posted images on social media from their deployment in northern Gaza, some depicting blindfolded Palestinian detainees – evidence of crimes, the report noted. They also shared updates about their trip to the Netherlands.

Get it through your hate filled heads, zionists are not welcome in Europe. You may think it'll be ok but it won't. The politicians like Von Der Leyen may be properly "influenced", but the people are not.

Do not come here. Stay in Israel, since most likely other countries will arrest you too. Not only you can be arrested for being the little monsters you've been, you might even get seriously hurt, especially if you go around being racist in public to our arab brothers and sisters.

I'm afraid to say that most people i have conversations with loathe your country and its actions. At best you'll have locals politely excusing themselves well away from you the moment you announce being Israeli.

It does give me some slight relief to know that these genocidal fucks will have to look over their shoulders any time they travel for the rest of their lives.

The world should do what Israel did after WWII and go on a revenge spree assassinating these war criminals.

Pro tip to any soldiers, don’t TikTok the weird shit you do. This already happened during the Iraq war, that video of the guy throwing a puppy off a cliff comes to mind.

Protip: If you’re a fascist, don’t visit the Hague on holiday.

No, please do and announce it as loud as possible before and during your trip.

Wouldn’t they be covered under the US Hague Invasion Act?

I dont think Israel can afford the tier of bribery required to outright go to war with Europe.
