      Not this guy, don’t get it mixed up. They’ve been stalling and rejecting anything, even the smallest things we can do to stop genocide. Of all the motions debated yesterday from our parliament, only reaffirming the current course of inaction and even further blaming Hamas were passed.

      VVD under Yesilgoz is firmly pro-Israel and doesn’t give two shits about genocide. They should be brought to trial, not running the country.

      Popular sentiment is anti-zionist but our elected officials aren’t, having been elected mostly on anti-immigrant right wing points

        I might be missing something, I am unsure how your comment about the VVD relates to this minister, as he is part of NSC, not VVD.

        For clarity: I interpret your comment as a statement that this minister (who has stepped down) to not have integrity.

          That’s exactly right. I know he’s from NSC. Stepping down when you get zero room to maneuver isn’t integrity, it’s forced. And he dragged his feet doing something for Gaza every step of the way as well, it’s not like he was helping them meaningfully anyways. I am pinning this on VVD completely. NSC is done for, they’re going to 0. What a clown show

          Edit: Let me be clearer. Veldkamp stepped down but that doesn’t make him one of the good guys. The remark “at least he has integrity” is not warranted

          I’m bringing in VVD because I blame this on their blocking everything. Their frame of “NSC walks away because they don’t take responsibility” is preposterous
