Mick van Wely wrote that his Dutch grandfather worked as an optician for the resistance in Leiden and took photos for forged documents. According to him, his father grew up with a strong aversion to Germans. When, as a five-year-old, he received an apple from a German soldier, he thanked him with a curse word for Germans, Van Wely said. His Hungarian mother, he said, grew up under communism, which he described as just as bad as fascism. Van Wely wrote that he had been raised at home with love for and respect for freedom. This, he said, explained why he sometimes reacted angrily when he saw that the carefully built Western lead and achievements, which had long been taken for granted, were coming under heavy pressure and were slowly being rolled back. #vrijheid #geschiedenis #verzet (translated)

Mick van Wely wrote that organized crime, in his opinion, was dangerously infiltrating radical leftists in Germany. He stated that criminal organizations were given the most space by the far left and that especially Arab crime clans were providing votes in return. He also noted that concerns about this would increase within the police, while the media, according to Van Wely, hardly reported on it and carefully kept the issue out of sight. https://t.co/OHjUnZq0E2 #Duitsland #misdaad #politiek (translated)

Mick van Wely stated that the support for Hamas in the Netherlands became more aggressive as the movement lost ground. He wrote that this, in his opinion, was especially true in the Randstad, but that it spread as a harmful development throughout the entire country. #Hamas #Nederland #Randstad (translated)

Mick van Wely wrote that earlier that week he was shocked by reports in which the thwarted terrorist attack on a FlyDubai aircraft was described by some media as a fight in the cockpit. He called that deliberate disinformation and stated that there was boundless activism in the journalism surrounding Gaza and Israel. #terreur #journalistiek #GazaIsrael (translated)

Mick van Wely wrote that some media had described a thwarted terrorist attack as a dispute in the cockpit. According to him, the reporting on Israel and Gaza was becoming increasingly biased and colored. He urged media not to be influenced by the conflict and to do their job. #media #Israël #Gaza (translated)

Mick van Wely stated that he would be handling criminal cases for the new crime platform PowCrime of PowNed. He mentioned that he would collaborate with young creators, including Owen O'Brien, and cited cold cases as one of the topics. #misdaad #criminaliteit #coldcase (translated)

De man die vrijdagmidddag werd doodgeschoten op het NDSM-terrein in Amsterdam is DJI-medewerker Marcel Blijd. Een afdelingshoofd op afdeling Zuid, waar zware jeugdcriminelen zitten. Dat melden onthutste collega's aan Crimestation https://t.co/aj3RIks5YO #Amsterdam #criminaliteit #NDSM

Dat is nog het meest trieste. Vroeger accepteerden we in dit land dat iemand een totaal andere mening had. Wat die mening staat volledig los van gewoon gezond sociaal en professioneel contact met iemand. Maar tegenwoordig is alles gepolitiseerd #maatschappij #politiek #meningsverschil
