Jews Speak Openly to King: Son No Longer Wears Kippah Outside
During his visit to the Liberal Jewish Community Beth Jehoeda in The Hague on Tuesday, King Willem-Alexander heard community members report feeling less safe since the October 7, 2023 Hamas attacks. A woman stated her son no longer wears a kippah outside for safety reasons, while others mentioned avoiding Hebrew books on trains or switching schools due to antisemitism. The King acknowledged these concerns, suggesting he could raise awareness among the silent majority, and emphasized the synagogue as a safe haven for the community.
