I don't understand this site. What has -bad news from the netherlands-to do with the state of Israel?
What is bad about the news that Fortis NL lost possibly € 1.000.000.000,=
Shareholders will have a lot less to cry for. Fortis was a bad Belgian bank who tore apart ABNAMRO from the Netherlands in a nasty way.
This happens all over the world with companies that are targeted by hedge funds (remember that ABNAMRO was taken under fire by the British -the Children's Investment Fund- in January 2007).
You should learn your lessons before you talk economics.
