There were chat groups planning a Jew hunt for that day weeks in advance. Screenshots exist.
So include them in your post that otherwise just proves the point of the article?

The article included several unsourced quotes from some kind of chat groups which are also potentially translated, no way to verify. And then they included a random unsourced screenshot which has "translation" added on top it, removing original content that would help verify authenticity. That's not proof you claim it to be... Not only basic fact checking disproves it, but article itself quotes Uber spokesperson indicating there were no reports.
A story on how the claim that was rejected by Uber. And Israeli PR machine trying to make something out of nothing.
Of course Uber would deny that. You can find more details on Dutch media. This was the first English article I found.
Well, since they are cooperating with Dutch authorities, lying wouldn't be in their best self-interest. And so far nobody proven otherwise.
Random claims are not evidence.
I posted a link and it was deleted by mods.
I'd like to see that. I have been following everything closely, and a lot of rumors are used as truths. From both sides... can you post some links?

I asked for the screenshots, none given. These look like doctored communications, the maker did not realize these (mostly uneducated) people do not chat in English?
These are translated from Dutch and Arabic of course.

If you look at Dutch media, you can find more.
Also here. I asked for the screenshots, none given. These are clearly manipulated.
These are translated from Arabic and Dutch of course.
Doesn't mean the Israelis were innocent
Pogroms are always the fault of the Jews. /s
The world starts to see through your bullshit. You cannot manipulate the truth forever you know
