Dear Board of Directors
Dear Management
Best wishes for 2015.
However, you started the New Year badly, by giving
your cooperation to the deportation  of
Mr F.M. Amiri, father to a family consisting
of him, his wife, his two sons and one daughter,
to Afghanistan at monday 5th of january 2015, (1)
Deportation date/ 5 january 2015
Time/ 12.55
Flight number/ KL 871
Not only a father is separated from his family, which is
contrary European and international human rights
treaties (right to a family life), he is deported to a
dangerous, war stricken country, which may put
him in danger, in which case you bear co responsibility.
 
Therefore an urgent appeal to you, not to co operate
with this deportation.

Christmas Message 2014/No Place for refugees in Fortress Europe/Reflections on Christmas Eve

CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION IN EUROPE
-foto in Fish River Canyon, door: dhovestadt
A FAMILY TRAVELS WITH A DONKEY CART THROUGH THE DESERT

BOAT REFUGEES NOT WELCOME IN FORTRESS EUROPE
At a certain moment in the history of Mankind, a man leaves his
home with his pregnant wife, in search for a better existence.
They travel on a donkey cart, under the burning sun.
No pleasure for a mother to be, but better than walking, like
the other refugees.
When they enter a remotely city, they can’t rest anywhere,
as poor as they were.
But compassionate farmer shows them a cabin, where they
can sleep.
That night the woman gives birth to a child.
But they can’t stay there for long, because the local
ruler hates foreigners and already killed many of them
in a massacre.
So they have to run away with a newborn baby to
another country.

The Netherlands marks Theo van Gogh murder/An Islamophobe and antisemite is not a saint

TEN YEARS COMMEMORATION OF THEO VAN GOGH AT THE
SCENE OF THE CRIME
Het is stil bij De Schreeuw
THE MONUMENT ”DE SCHREEUW” [THE SCREAM], IN
HONOUR OF THEO VAN GOGH
Joan of arc miniature graded.jpg

THEO VAN GOGH WAS NOT
ST JOAN OF ARC
This year it is ten years ago, that filmmaker Theo
van Gogh was killed, which is commemorated on several
places like the scene of the murder, ”his” monument
”De Schreeuw” [The Scream] and a commemoration on TV.
His films were performed again in Eye [The Amsterdam Filmhouse],
lectures,  documentaries on television and so on.[1]
Was he then the Dutch St Joan, Jeanne d’Arc? [2]
Not at all.
Here stands a common provocateur, a man, who loved to humiliate
and insult others and above all, an Islamofobe and antisemite.
A man, who didn’t deserve any attention, let alone this
ridiculous canonization.
Let’s open the dirty chamber pot and try not to
vomit from the smell.

Asylum Policy in the Netherlands/Painted slogans at the homes of leading Dutch immigration Policy Officials by action group ”The Visitors”/Statement of solidarity

HOUSE OF THE DIRECTOR MIGRATION POLICY AT THE DEPARTMENT
OF SECURITY AND JUSTICE, ONE OF THE HEAD RESPONSIBLES
FOR THE INHUMAN DUTCH ASYLUM POLICY
ASYLUM POLICY IN THE NETHERLANDS/PAINTED SLOGANS
AT THE HOMES OF HIGH DUTCH IMMIGRATION POLICY OFFICIALS
BY ACTION GROUP ”THE VISITORS”/STATEMENT OF SOLIDARITY
In the night of 3-4 october, action group ´´The Visitors´´, sprayed painted slogans and threw paint at the homes of Harke Heida (Rijswijk), director migration policy at the Department of Security and Justice and Jos Willemsz Geeroms (The Hague), senior advisor at the Immigration and Naturalisation services (IND) and releasemanager for its IT-system INDiGO.
This is a direct protest against the inhuman asylum policy in the Netherlands.
Their Statement says:
 
´´Last night (3 – 4 October) we, ‘The Visitors’, spray painted slogans and threw paint at the homes of Harke Heida (Rijswijk), director migration policy at the Department of Security and Justice and Jos Willemsz Geeroms (The Hague), senior advisor at the Immigration and Naturalisation services (IND) and releasemanager for its IT-system INDiGO. We also delivered a stinking bomb at Geeroms’ home.

We make a clear stance against the racist migration policy of the Dutch state. Civil servants like Heida and Geeroms are directly co-responsible for the daily torture of thousands of people behind prison walls and for the many deportations of people who will meet a sure death in the country they are forced to go to. Heida and Geeroms will most likely claim they are only doing their job and that all these crimes are not their responsibility. But they do make themselves complicit to a colonial system of repression and exclusion. We hold them responsible for their contributions to the Dutch policies and practices of exclusion, detention and deportation of migrants. No one should make a living out of this inhumane system. No longer they can do their “jobs” in the anonymity and pretended innocence they’ve been hiding in so far.

We’ll keep on fighting for a world without borders and an end to the capitalist system that ruins the world and keeps billions of people in the grip of poverty, hunger, war, oppression and exploitation.´´ (1)

LETTER TO THE ISRAELI EMBASSY
 
 
TO THE EMBASSY OF ISRAEL
YOUR SPONSORING OF ”SPOT ON
ISRAELI THEATRE”
THE AMBASSADOR
Your Excellency
I want to draw your attention for the following:
Recently I have .learnt, that you are one of the sponsors
of ”Spot on Israeli Theatre”, a cultural event, which has
been organised by the Stichting Rainbow.
Your involvement shows the official governmental interest
in this project.
Since the State of Israel, the country, that you represents
in the Netherlands, is a 47 years occupying country of
the Palestinian territories and Syrian Golan Heights,
I am of the opinion, that no cultural ties must exist
between Israel and other countries, as long as Israel
doesn’t obey the rules of civilisation and International
Law to end the occupation and respect the
fundamental human rights.
