RE: One of the more disturbing videos of American Media I've ever seen 😱 Dozens of anchors reading the same script
oh wow interesting - I did not know that about NL! Either everyone's behaving because they know about "big brother", or offenses aren't being reported because the USA is more in the spotlight as you suggest... Or maybe the Dutch really are just that good. ;) Fascinating yet disturbing stuff.
Yeah it's not very known.. even in the Netherlands most people don't know it. I was surprised myself when I discovered it!
But I think the key thing is that it appears to be mostly that: surveillance. I think there's no kicking-in-doors and that kind of stuff going on. I do think the Dutch intelligence probably works closely together with the US and I've read several times when apparently some Dutch intelligence was key in aiding the US with regards to some important global issues. Maybe it's like we like to spy, but let the Americans do the actual dirty work?
Well, we do like to think of ourselves as the "world police"... ;)
