The Dutch government is looking for ways to bypass the court’s ban on delivering parts for F-35 fighter jets to Israel, NOS reports based on internal documents from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Last month, the Court of Appeals in The Hague ruled that the Dutch State must stop “any (actual) export and transit of F-35 parts with final destination Israel.” According to the court, there is a real risk of Israel using those fighter jets, kept up and running with parts delivered by the Netherlands, to commit serious violations of humanitarian law of war in the Gaza Strip.
The State went into cassation against the ruling but has to adhere to it until the next ruling. The government is looking for ways around that, NOS found. The Ministry of Defense has asked the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to have its diplomats think of alternative ways to get F-35 parts to Israel by sending them from other countries and not the Netherlands.
So much for the rules based international order
Germany, Holland, England, America, all the big genocide aficionados are really feeling themselves with this one
More like rules cringe “international” order
The rules based international order is a sham and overdue for collapse
It was never actually about peace, order, or unity. It’s always been about money and power, from the begining of organized religion to the rise of governments. Chaos always has the upper hand and chaos is the real God people fear and sacrifice to out of fear in hopes that one day the pain of existence is pacified. But it never will be, so they perpetuate ego for the illusions of control and ignorant denial of reality. God never was. Order never was. And now we watch societies squirm in the unadulterated pain of the raw fact that humans are no better than animals and deserving of nothing more or less than dirt we walk on and the elements we abuse.
good paragraph
most of the parts have serial numbers which are in datasets; now what?
