The 85th anniversary of Kristallnacht, a night of anti-Jewish violence in 1938, was commemorated with tributes and discussions on the rise of antisemitism. German Nazi forces and civilians attacked Jewish businesses and homes, leading to the destruction of over 7000 Jewish businesses, arrest of 30,000 Jewish men, and killing of over 100 Jews. Chancellor Olaf Scholz promised to protect Germany’s Jews against a spike in antisemitism. The event was linked to a recent spike in antisemitism following Hamas’s attack in Israel. The anniversary served as a reminder of the fear Jews feel worldwide.
German media over the weekend commemorated Kristallnacht at a time of rising antisemitism. One left-wing paper also delved into Islamist involvement in the current anti-Israel rallies, warning of "a new wave of Islamist radicalization and violence" https://t.co/M9vm6DKpXg

Today is the 85th anniversary of the November Pogrom (Kristallnacht). It was an orgy of anti-Jewish violence across Germany, Austria & the Sudetenland. Living through this moment in history adds a special sadness when commemorating the Shoah. Never again was a lie.

Kristallnacht was response to a polish Jëw assassinating a German politican. Of course you aren't told that part, so you believe Germans just randomly starting attacking Jëwish people and property for no reason.
