Dutch Court Rejects Lawsuit to Halt Arms Sales to Israel
ai generated text
The Dutch court has rejected a bid from 10 human rights organizations to block weapons exports to Israel and trade with occupied territories. The organizations, who claim the Netherlands is in violation of the 1948 Genocide Convention, argue that the government is using taxpayer money to fund violence against its own citizens. However, the court has dismissed all claims, stating that the state has some flexibility in its policies.
The interim relief court finds that there is no reason to impose a total ban on the export of military and dual-use goods on the state.
The government uses my own tax money, that I pay, to kill my own family. I've lost 18 members of my own family.
The Netherlands has abandoned the most basic rules of international law, to prevent colonisation, annexation, apartheid and genocide.
