Dutch Officer: Dutch Minister Prevented UN Air Force Support for Dutch Soldiers on the Ground in Srebrenica

Former Dutch Air Force officer Bart Wagenaar has stated that Dutch Minister of Defense Voorhoeve prevented UN support for the Dutch military back in 1995 on the day when the Muslim enclave of Srebrenica was taken over by Bosnian Serbian soldiers.  In the current court case against Dutch commander Thom Karremans, his lawyer Geert-Jan Knoops wants Wagenaar to be heard. Voorhoeve denies the accusation. In a related court case, a Dutch soldier, Derk Zwaan, has opened a lawsuit against the Dutch state in order to receive payment for the post-traumatic stress resulting from his service in Srebrenica.

1.3 Million Dutch Have Great Difficulties Reading

1.3 million Dutch people between the ages of 15-65  have great difficulty reading. That is about 10% of the professional population. The number has recently increased, with 200,000 more people as compared to five years ago. Part of these people are elderly who have done little to maintain their reading skills. Another large group are children of non-Western immigrants whose parents have a poor knowledge of Dutch. Another 250,000 people can neither read nor write. Poor literacy costs Dutch society about half a billion Euro per year.

The Dutch football association, KNVB, intends to heavily penalize the Utrecht Soccer Club for anti-Semitic chants which were sung during a game against Ajax in April.  Supporters of Utrecht sang, “My father was with the commandos, my mother was with the SS, together they burned Jews, because they burn best.”  The soccer club claims it did not know what was sung and has apologized for its supporters.

Dutch Buddhist Monks and Teachers Sexually Abused Pupils

Over the past decades, Buddhist monks and teachers have abused their pupils, some being minors.  A Thai monk who came to the Netherlands in the 1970s has attempted to abuse and has abused young men for at least twenty years.
