Endless and sustained campaigns funded by tens, if not hundreds of million dollars to change narrative of Israel's war crimes to a humanitarian mission to promote peace in the Middle East. Lies and disinformation need to be exposed ... always.
Translation:
Shocking revelations by officials at [BZ] ministry Foreign Affairs. Request from the Ministry of Algemene Zaken [Office of PM Mark Rutte] to the Directorate of Legal Affairs at Foreign Affairs: "What can we say to make it seem as if Israel is not committing war crimes?"
Today's revelations for a Dutch parliament which invites Hasbara spokespersons from Netanyahu's PMO to bring parliament the latest update on Israel's humanitarian actions in Gaza, Judeo and Samaria and across Lebanon and Syria. What a farce the Dutch leadership is and has been during 14 years of the Mark Rutte cabal. So glad he is now @NATO 🤬. Destruction of Europe.
Dutch Peace Activist from Pax Smeared as a Hamas Supporter
Israel calls Thomas a linchpin in network that strives to 'isolate' Israel, now peace activist is threatened
Thomas van Gool, a Brabant peace activist from Pax, is suddenly designated by Israel as 'a key figure' in a network affiliated with Hamas. Shocked aid organizations sound the alarm with Prime Minister Schoof, the man himself is astonished. 'I don't even know most of the people in that so-called terrorist network. I had to google who they are myself.'
Pax in Dutch Media
In the wake of the decisions by the UN World Court ICJ and the Gaza genocide investigation by the ICC, should be a safeguard for peace activists across the globe. Hasbara smear campaign should be condemned and halted in court.
Campaign to smear Dutch peace activists intensifies under Wilderism
Secret Israeli gov't report exposes Dutch anti-Israel sentiment spiraling out of control | JPost |
Today, following fresh reports of violent attacks on Israeli fans in Amsterdam, The Jerusalem Post reveals an exclusive and highly classified report from Israel's Diaspora Affairs and Combatting Antisemitism Ministry, written in May 2024.
Regular quotes in pro-Zionist media has been popping up more frequently. Anyone have a link to these reports, especially the most recent one about the "Amsterdam 'pogrom' of 'Jew' hunting?" 😖
Today Pax peace activist Thomas van Gool was smeared in Dutch media w/o any evidence. How fake accusations are reported is essential.
Geert Wilders is expected to visit occupied West Bank to meet terror minister Ben Gvir ... the ICC decision should be the ax in the Wilders' coalition soon.
Gaza Humanitarian Crisis Documents Classified Top Secret
Pitch-black image
Secret documents: Gaza situation unprecedented, the Netherlands struggles with Israel sanctions in the EU | RTL News today |
The Netherlands and other EU countries are struggling with the situation in Gaza and possible sanctions against Israel. This is evident from confidential diplomatic documents from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, seen by the political editors of RTL Nieuws. They paint a pitch-black picture of the humanitarian situation in Gaza.
The government also addresses Israel about this, but at the same time does not want to offend the Israeli government too much, according to the documents. For example, sanctions against two far-right ministers from the Israeli government have been discussed repeatedly in recent months, but the European member states have not reached an agreement.
The Netherlands is hesitant: The Hague does not reject the sanctions plan entirely, but does not fully support it either.
'Unprecedented in terms of human suffering'
In the confidential documents, diplomats describe the situation in Gaza as 'unprecedented in terms of human suffering'. Gaza has become 'a nightmare', there is talk of 'starvation' and '17,000 children are wandering around without supervision', according to the documents.
In addition, the violence by Israeli settlers on the West Bank is at its 'highest point in years'. And not only is the humanitarian situation in Gaza very serious, but the Palestinian economy is also being completely destroyed, diplomats write.
Sanctions
In order to increase the pressure on Israel, the European member states have been arguing for months about possible sanctions against two Israeli cabinet members. These are the ministers Itamar Ben-Gvir (National Security) and Bezalel Smotrich (Finance). Sanctions could include travel restrictions or the freezing of bank accounts in the European Union.

In a passage of a new book published ahead of the 2025 Jubilee Year and released on Sunday, Pope Francis noted that according to some experts, "what is happening in Gaza has the characteristics of a genocide" and called for a careful investigation, according to sources.
The book by Hernán Reyes Alcaide is titled "Hope Never Disappoints: Pilgrims Toward a Better World" and was written for the occasion of the 2025 Jubilee?
Pope Francis said in the book that, "according to some experts, what is happening in Gaza has the characteristics of a genocide. It should be carefully investigated to determine whether it fits into the technical definition formulated by jurists and international bodies."
"In the Middle East, where the open doors of nations like Jordan or Lebanon continue to be a salvation for millions of people fleeing conflicts in the region: I am thinking above all of those who leave Gaza in the midst of the famine that has struck their Palestinian brothers and sisters given the difficulty of getting food and aid into their territory," Pope Francis continued.
Israel's ambassador to the Holy See pushed back against the claim.
[Paragraph of Hasbara rhetoric I refuse to quote in my comment here]
Yaron Sideman responded to the pope's comments on X ...
In a Nov. 18 press release, the Combat Antisemitism Movement (CAM), a global coalition combating antisemitism under leadership of Natan Sharansky, also criticized the pope's remarks, calling them "an eighth front" of the war against Israel ...
[...]
A United Nations Special Committee on Nov. 14 released a report claiming that "Israel's warfare in Gaza is consistent with the characteristics of genocide, with mass civilian casualties and life-threatening conditions intentionally imposed on Palestinians there."
"Since the beginning of the war, Israeli officials have publicly supported policies that strip Palestinians of the very necessities required to sustain life -- food, water, and fuel," the committee stated. "These statements along with the systematic and unlawful interference of humanitarian aid make clear Israel's intent to instrumentalize lifesaving supplies for political and military gains."
Europe's Chief Rabbis Condemn Pope's Call to Probe Israel's 'Genocide'
On Tuesday, the standing committee of Conference of European Rabbis (CER), which was meeting in Munich, issued a statement blasting Francis's assertion that the Israel Defense Force's actions in Gaza "should be carefully investigated to determine whether it fits into the technical definition of genocide as formulated by jurists and international bodies."
The CER, the main umbrella body for more than 900 mainstream synagogues in Europe, said they were "deeply disturbed" by the pontiff's "support for this dangerous proposition" since it lends "credibility to the insidious narrative propagated by Iran and its proxies through international organizations."
With such assertions, the CER and European Rabbis make themselves incredulous and irrelevant. On the side of perpetrators of war crimes and severe inhumane acts for over 13 months and expanding. Heinous.
Perspective from Jerusalem ...
After staying religion should stay out of politics ... the cardinal made a highly contentious political statement ... for his personal survival in the midst of such madness ⁉️

For decades now, a two-state solution was never an option for peace with Arab countries and Palestinians by the Zionist spirit running through the Israel government, founded in terror.
ICC Decision Must Have Consequences for Wilders
Geert Wilders calls for kicking out ICC prosecutor over Israel `bias' | TOI - 27 Dec 2019 |
Far-right Dutch politician says court 'behaves as a biased pro-Palestinian institution and an anti-Semitic kangaroo court'
Geert Wilders called for the expulsion of Fatou Bensouda over her Dec. 20 report alleging that both Israelis and Palestinians had committed war crimes. Bensouda is based in The Hague.
Bensouda's 112-page report asked the court to decide whether it has jurisdiction over Israel, which like the United States is not a party to the treaty that constitutes the court's mandate. The Palestinian Authority is party to the treaty.
Israel maintains the court has no jurisdiction because Israel has a functioning judicial system that can exercise proper oversight of its leaders.
In his statement, Wilders whose Party for Freedom won 20 seats in parliament in 2017 elections, said that the court "behaves as a biased pro-Palestinian institution and an anti-Semitic kangaroo court." Bensouda "should be declared persona non grata and be evicted out of the Netherlands," Wilders wrote.
Wilders, who is a vocal opponent of Muslim immigration to the Netherlands and European integration a leading Islamophobe with financial support from Israel lobby located in the U.S., is a strong supporter of Israel.
