    The crowd of Israeli soccer fans shouting “Death to Arabs” and “There are no schools in Gaza because there are no children” were victims of a pogrom.

      “There are no schools in Gaza because there are no children”

      I’m not being pedantic for the sake of pedantry, but what they said was “because there are no children left”; they’re celebrating that they’ve killed the children of Gaza (I make this distinction because without the word ‘left’ it sounds like they don’t believe there are children there; it’s instead because they’re celebrating killing children)
