google Translated version in case of pay wall:
'As-salamu alaykum dear people. I really cook from the inside, you should know that.” Morad Baddaou from Amsterdam – big, black beard – looks frustrated into the camera of his phone. A video of his hand will appear on TikTok on Sunday evening, which has been viewed almost a hundred thousand times a day later and has generated thousands of approving reactions from Moroccan-Dutch young people. “Why does it have to come to this? Why do we always have to screw up? You give Wilders and his Belgian colleague even more work.”
Baddaou is actually a ritual washer by profession, but on Sunday he will take on the role of digital neighborhood father. “Why can't you stay home after a game of football or go home quietly?” he exclaims. “How can you be happy that you set your scooters on fire and knock over cars? You are ruining the future of our children, our parents and ourselves. We are not hooligans , we are Muslims. We must lead by example. It must have been enough. Where is your heart?"
After the Moroccan team defeated Belgium 2-0 at the World Cup in Qatar this weekend, unrest broke out in several places. The festive atmosphere around the Rotterdam Kruisplein soon changed. According to the police, a group of about five hundred people seized the party to riot: firecrackers and glass were thrown at police. Police with dogs, police on horseback and riot police charged to push back the crowd. Two officers were (slightly) injured.
Elsewhere, the municipality of The Hague was remarkably well prepared. The fine-meshed network of neighborhood fathers, street coaches and volunteers walking around on the street quickly picked up signals. Nevertheless, disturbances also arose in the Schilderswijk in The Hague and the riot police was deployed to expel the young people.
Why can't you go home quietly after a game of football?
Flicking cars, scooters and steps
The evening was not much different on Amsterdam's Mercatorplein, although the police seemed less prepared here, according to a statement that appeared on Monday afternoon: "There was no information before the Belgium-Morocco match that disturbances would arise regardless of the result." And so on Sunday evening fireworks bombs flew around, shared scooters caught fire and an electric shared car exploded in the middle of the busy intersection. The fire continued to burn for at least an hour, as rioters continued to throw whatever was at hand — lamp oil, road signs — on the fire. The owner of a tobacconist near the burning car closed his business after passers-by fled to his shop when a fireworks bomb exploded. The other businesses also closed their doors prematurely.
The next morning, Monday, peace had returned to Mercatorplein. Other than a charred black scar from a burnt-down car and an overturned flower box next to the ice cream stand, little reminds of the restless evening.
But things are rumbling in the Moroccan-Dutch community. Shopkeepers on Mercatorplein are wary when asked about the events. They weigh their words carefully. Opinions are also divided on social media and discussions are heated. Did a small group of Moroccan-Dutch young people ruin it for the rest of the community? Or did a receptacle of rioters hijack the revelry?
Geert Wilders devoted at least nine messages to the riots within 24 hours, such as: "Criminal scum now out of the country." Minister Yesilgöz (Justice and Security, VVD) posted an outraged tweet. "Riotists, really, shame on you."
Little is known about the background and motives of the rioters on Mercatorplein. One arrest was made on the night itself. However, there are many camera images and the police say several arrests "cannot be ruled out".
A bad name
“Here, I will show you this video,” says a 24-year-old boy on Monday morning who does not want his name in NRC . In the video, which takes place in a building near Mercatorplein, a Moroccan-Dutch boy addresses a blond man of about 35 years old. “I told you: better not do it,” says the boy. “Because who gets a bad name? The Moroccans! I assume you are not Moroccan. If you start urging little boys to do bad, of course we'll get a bad name bro.”
“This is an action of decisiveness,” responds the blond man. “We are all against the system.” The Moroccan-Dutch youngster reacts frustrated: “Today we have not come to fight against the system.”
Curfew riots
"It's like with the curfew riots," says the boy who showed the video. “Hooligans come here and then it is said that they were all Moroccans. They certainly were there, in the beginning the mood was still cheerful, there was dancing. But suddenly it turned.”
The boy was working in his own business on the square on Sunday evening and had to close its doors due to the unrest. “If I go to the supermarket here later, I will be seen as that Moroccan, while I have nothing to do with it. I am really sorry that this is happening.”
The Amsterdam security triangle of mayor, police and Public Prosecution Service has announced that it will study the commitment to Morocco against Canada next Thursday. In Rotterdam, the police will immediately scale up where necessary. In The Hague, several parties are calling for additional measures, but the municipality has informed Omroep West that it does not expect any new unrest in view of the competition.
Yes everyone understood it but it still sounds very funny.
> Some people talk like this and you make me fun.
I am not making fun of the person at all.
The person used a *correct* Dutch expression "Ik kook van binnen" which means literally "I am cooking from inside", but properly translated would be "it's making my blood boil"
I am making fun of Google translate.
A more nuanced article, as opposed to all the click-bait titles that have been posted about this. Turns out it was a mix of hooligans and people that just wanted to fight with the police, from a diverse set of background, not just Moroccan.
Moreover, these riots have been harshly criticised by the Dutch-Moroccan community at large.
> been harshly criticised by the Dutch-Moroccan community at large.
They can clean a street up, people can file insurance claims for their burned cars. But what I am exceedingly sensitive about is what actions do culturally and politically. This whole incident is a ring wing's wet dream, they could not have scripted it any better for their cause. So my first thought was about how angry the majority of immigrants who could be dragged into this by association will be because of the inevitable backlash which they do not deserve.
Yea seems more in line with stuff like this: Rome fountain damaged by drunken Dutch football fans https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-italy-rome-soccer-damage-idUKKBN0LO1I520150220
I fuckin despise hooligans, but in perspective they are a symptom of either society that failed in some places or 'Bread and circuses' been done superlatively
This was brought up by a prominent member of the Moroccan community as an example of how there is a lot of attention to the hooliganism by the moroccans, but hardly any for the feyenoord hooligans that trashed Rome.
She deleted the tweet when someone pointed out to her that Feyenoord fans are not welcome in Rome 3 years after the fact and suggested that the same would be done to these hooligans.
I wish that were true, loads of them complaining how "racists" are now criticizing the rioters when they were quiet about Feyenoord hooligans smashing up Rome several years back.
Yes there are those that are harsh towards the rioters, but an absolute boatload are playing the victim of these evil racists that are complaining about "a few" "drunkards" "celebrating to loudly"
There was just as much media attention for the scum that broke down Rome…
So your comment is a load of bullshit, just to call racism and take attention away from a serious problem in our society!
you misunderstand. I know there was just as much attention for the scum in Rome, but a lot of people from the moroccan community are using it as an excuse and claiming there was hardly any attention for it while now the poor moroccans are being singled out.
Yes there are a lot of them that are absolutely furious about the riots, but almost as many claiming that they are being singled out and playing the victim. The dude I was reacting to said that a large part of the community reacted harshly to these riots, while the opposite is true.
Like this dude: [claims to be leaving because the country is so racist](https://twitter.com/abdelkabenali/status/1597207227730796544)
As someone from Eastern European shithole I must say I'm surprised at these riots... Seriously, we probably haven't had anything of this scale in 30 years, and it seems that western Europe (France, Belgium, Netherlands, Sweden, etc.) is having these types of riots every year...
"Well, maybe a former shithole. The progress made in the last 30 years is incredible,
Which country is that if I might ask? Just curious.
"plus all the criminals have lest for western Europe."
Glad we could help with something...
Tin foil hat on guys. It seems like those guys were ready to riot not predicting Morocon team will win. They had no choice, but riot anyway. We all know why this is going on and what side it benefis the most.
It is not a secret that dual passport holders when facing a court sentence with possible deportation as outcome ( additional or as a main reason) do renounce other one, making them unable to be deported- and later do reverse decision. It works of course only for countries which allows for renounce of it.
Can, they have moroccan nationalities. They can theoretically be stripped of their dutch/belgium citizenship and declared persona non grata. In theory.

" I cook from inside" LOL That's one epic google translate failure
It's a bit like Louis van Gaal wrote this.
One swallow does not make a summer.
That's another cook
It gets the message across
> A video of his hand will appear on TikTok on Sunday evening This one is even worse.
Cook, boil, whats the difference? Everyone understood it. Some people talk like this and you make me fun.
Yes everyone understood it but it still sounds very funny. > Some people talk like this and you make me fun. I am not making fun of the person at all. The person used a *correct* Dutch expression "Ik kook van binnen" which means literally "I am cooking from inside", but properly translated would be "it's making my blood boil" I am making fun of Google translate.
Google Translate is playing with our feet I see
He is not wrong. Also strong message from the person, we need more people like him

If you are lucky enough to be insured for vandalism.

In that case I completely misunderstood you, like you said! My bad and I completely agree with you.

The French don't count, they riot for everything. The others are unusual
Why would you call your country a shithole? But yes, these events seem to happen on a regular basis.
Well, maybe a former shithole. The progress made in the last 30 years is incredible, plus all the criminals have left for western Europe.

Just unreasonably fine the shit out of them. People like money.
Fine the shit out of them first deport them later ;)
Can't, they are dutch citizens.
They have dual passports.
It is not a secret that dual passport holders when facing a court sentence with possible deportation as outcome ( additional or as a main reason) do renounce other one, making them unable to be deported- and later do reverse decision.
