AUDIO with subtitles, Dutch parliament, April 2024: https://lnkd.in/ewt-Tvez

The audio proofs that Mark Rutte and his VVD party have always prioritized the interests of Netanyahu's Israel over those of the Netherlands. In 2024, a Dutch court ruled that the delivery of F-35 components to Israel must be halted due to the risk of the Netherlands actively supporting Genocide. This is a criminal offense and violates the 'Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide', a treaty signed by the Netherlands.

But instead of serving and protecting the Netherlands, Mark Rutte and his VVD party continued to actively support Netanyahu's War Crimes and Genocide. In Jan. 2024 Rutte even asked the legal affairs ministry: "What can we say to make it look like Israel is not committing war crimes?": https://lnkd.in/ehRjH5GE 

With these (and many other) actions, Mark Rutte and his 'VVD cabinet' are Complicit in Genocide. By retaining Mark Rutte as Secretary General, the whole of NATO is complicit in Genocide. This makes NATO the greatest threat to humanity today. NATO now is our enemy, not our protector.

Rutte's outgoing(!) government had also initiated cassation proceedings against the court ruling. But the 'cassation attempt' by Rutte's outgoing government was also rejected. https://lnkd.in/e7RJvsMJ

Outgoing Minister for 'Foreign Trade and Development Cooperation', VVD Geoffrey Van Leeuwen was the initiator of this 'cassation attempt'. 
Interestingly, Van Leeuwen is now Mark Rutte's confidant and personal assistant at NATO. After October 7 2023, Van Leeuwen spread messages from Islamophobic, anti-Palestinian and far-right accounts with disinformation about the Gaza war on X: https://lnkd.in/eYw6nYxd

The current outgoing(!) VVD cabinet is again abusing its 'interim position' to block measures against Netanyahu's Genocide and to continue providing military and political support for Netanyahu and his Genocide. Because of these actions, the current VVD cabinet is also complicit in Genocide

Rutte's cabinet was 'outgoing' because Rutte had deliberately made it collapse in 2023 due to his upcoming appointment as Secretary General of NATO.
