Sander Sassen addressed Henri Bontenbal and wrote that he had been little visible for months, despite an earlier column by Sassen about his absence. According to Sassen, Bontenbal had published a long thread on October 7, in which he labeled Hamas a terrorist organization and reflected on the victims and the Jewish community. Sassen felt that Bontenbal had subsequently blurred the responsibility for the violence by talking about a chain of violence, the Israeli response, and civilian casualties. He also believed that Bontenbal had pointed to Benjamin Netanyahu's settlement policy as an obstacle to a two-state solution. Sassen argued that this approach equated Hamas's attack and kidnappings with Israel's response, thereby fueling antisemitism. Sassen also criticized Bontenbal's reference to an article in Trouw about Maoz Inon, who lost his parents to Hamas, and Aziz Abu Sarah, whose brother died in an Israeli prison. Sassen described their pursuit of reconciliation as hopeful but felt that Bontenbal presented this initiative as a serious way forward without giving sufficient attention to Hamas's persistence and objectives, according to him. He also stated that Hamas deliberately saddled Palestinian children with hatred for Jews. Sassen wrote that, in his opinion, Bontenbal offered false hope and insufficiently placed responsibility for Hamas's violence on the perpetrators. He claimed that Hamas and its supporters aimed for the destruction of Israel and stated that disarmament by Palestinians, in his view, would bring peace, while Israel's disarmament would lead to a new attack like the one on October 7. #Israël #Hamas #Antisemitisme (translated)

Children remain victims of abuse as long as images of their victimization circulate online, and it is crucial that politics is required to take proactive action against these facts instead of only intervening afterward. #Kindermisbruik #OnlineVeiligheid #Kinderrechten (translated)

The author wrote that two temporary reception locations for asylum seekers in Zwolle were given priority in the allocation of space on the electricity grid. According to the author, the city council stated that the societal interest weighed heavily enough to deviate from its own policy rules. The author stated that councilor Arjan Spaans thereby lost the trust of the people of Zwolle. According to the author, Spaans consistently prioritized the interests of the national asylum chain over the housing crisis and the overload of the electricity grid in Zwolle. The author felt that his loyalty did not lie with the local population and deemed him unsuitable for politics in Zwolle. #asielzoekers #Zwolle #woningnood (translated)

Hester Bais wrote that in March 2023 she had gifted her book *Worst Bank Scenario* to current and former members of the House of Representatives, all members of the Senate, and a large part of the cabinet. In the book, she described her experiences as a lawyer and whistleblower regarding what she called the largest banking and pension fraud ever. She stated that she had not received any substantive response. Bais claimed that she was one of the few specialists in the Netherlands with legal and operational knowledge of central securities clearing, derivatives clearing, and collateral management. She said she had worked for years at ING, the Authority for the Financial Markets, Euronext, LCH, Euroclear, and Hogan Lovells. According to her, that experience had enabled her to expose extensive fraud involving collateral. She wrote that the Netherlands needed her expertise in a European financial sector where investment banks, according to her, called the shots and used taxpayer money and pension assets for their own liquidity purposes. According to Bais, the Authority for the Financial Markets ignored her whistleblower reports. She also said that she had become persona non grata in her field. She mentioned Sander Dekker from the VVD as the chairman of the supervisory board and wrote that he looked away, just like his predecessors Paul Rosenmöller and Martin van Rijn. #klokkenluider #advocaat #RedDeRechtstaat #klokkenluider #advocaat #fraude (translated)
