Henri Bontenbal (CDA) noemt de Wet Open Overheid, bedoeld om de overheid transparanter te maken, een 'doorn in het oog':

Ik had geen idee dat bij een geallieerd bombardement op Amsterdam op 26 november 1944 tenminste 54 mensen omkwamen. Bedoeling was om de Duitsers te raken maar dat ging dus volledig mis. (Euterpestraat heet sinds 1945 de Gerrit van der Veenstraat). Erg interessant artikel:
Nieuw verhaal. Zelden vielen er zoveel oorlogsslachtoffers in Amsterdam als door het bombardement dat de RAF na aandringen van prins Bernhard uitvoerde op 26 november 1944. Tientallen mensen verloren daarbij het leven. Hun namen bleven ongenoemd. meitotmei.nl/de-slachtoffers…

Duitse Max Planck Instituut stelt het aantal door #Israel gedode burgers in #Gaza bij: niet 70.000 maar meer dan 100.000. Het toont ook aan dat de levensverwachting voor burgers met 40 tot 50 jaar is gekelderd. Laat niemand zeggen dat we het niet wisten. demogr.mpg.de/en/news_events…

“In basic training [...] we all chanted ‘means, intent and ability. There’s no such thing as ‘means, intent and ability’ in Gaza. It’s just: a suspicion of walking where it’s not allowed. A man aged between 20 and 40.” Soldiers' testimonies from the new ITV (UK) documentary. >>

RTVE has compiled a database showing all known (mass) graves of victims in the Spanish Civil War & the Franco dictatorship and many of their backstories. To see the map like this is chilling and reveals how bloody this period was. Link: rtve.es/noticias/fosas-guerr…
