Social Media Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 The streets of The Hague, Netherlands, descended into chaos last night as violent riots broke out, with migrants hurling bricks, torching cars, and clashing with riot police. The unrest centered around the Opera conference hall along Fruitweg, where scenes of mayhem unfolded as police struggled to maintain order. Videos circulating on social media captured the intensity of the clashes, with rioters surrounding the Opera hall, smashing windows, and setting vehicles ablaze. The aftermath left the area resembling a warzone, with shards of glass littering the streets and thick smoke billowing into the air from tear gas canisters. Dressed in hooded jackets and with faces covered, the youths engaged in confrontations with police, pelting their vehicles with projectiles and obstructing their efforts to contain the situation. Riot officers, clad in protective gear, worked to barricade the entrance to the building and extinguish fires that had broken out inside. Journalist Owen O'Brien shared footage of the chaos, describing the extensive damage inflicted upon the Opera hall during the violent riots. The mayor of The Hague, Jan van Zanen, authorized the use of tear gas by police and issued an emergency order for the affected area to restore public order. The clashes were reportedly sparked by a confrontation between two groups of Eritreans, resulting in fights and stone-throwing incidents. Police units, including riot police, were deployed to quell the unrest, with emergency services responding to extinguish fires and assess any injuries. This incident is not isolated, as similar outbreaks of violence have occurred at Eritrean events across Europe in recent months. In Germany, clashes during Eritrean cultural festivals have led to injuries among both participants and law enforcement officers. Tensions among members of the Eritrean diaspora, exacerbated by political divisions and opposition to the Eritrean government, have contributed to the escalation of violence in these gatherings. The underlying issues driving these conflicts underscore the challenges faced by migrants fleeing repressive regimes, such as Eritrea, and seeking refuge in Europe. As authorities work to restore calm and investigate the causes of the unrest, the need for dialogue and resolution of deep-seated grievances within migrant communities remains paramount. 18.02.24 Source 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post thaibeachlovers Posted February 18 Popular Post Share Posted February 18 Holland has apparently been quite keen to prove how liberal it is in respect to taking illegal immigrants into the country. I think they have an entirely forseable problem entirely self inflicted. IMO Eritreans have very little in common with the Dutch. 3 1 2 3 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post bigupandchill Posted February 18 Popular Post Share Posted February 18 (edited) The people that allow, encourage, facilitate and turn a blind eye to the mass illegal migration into countries like Holland are more dangerous to the stability of the country than the Russian & Chinese government combined.

Of course much of the reason that they are 'used to that type of thing' back home is that the west, the Netherlands included, played a significant role in turning their countries into basket cases many years ago, and has done little to improve things since. We are reaping the fruits of our forefathers' actions. 2 5 2 1 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These people come to Europe and are amazed how easy it is to defy authorities and get away with it. In their own countries they daren't, they would get hammered. There is not one European country that is not regretting allowing unfettered access to Europe, and this is why the EU is having to revise all its policies on Migrants. 2 1 3 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Pouatchee Posted February 18 Popular Post Share Posted February 18 this is just the continuation of things that will eventually escalate. these liberal open border policies have attracted migrants and as long as politicians offer to take care of these migrants the local population will continue to bear the brunt of these decisions. 1 1 1 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Peterphuket Posted February 19 Popular Post Share Posted February 19 It is the EU that says you are welcome, welcome, welcome, these problems occur in many EU countries now. The population is not waiting for this at all but it is just shoved down their throats and results in shortages of everything like medical care, housing, and so on. And last but not least: crime. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only being an island, but also keeping migrants and asylum seekers detained on an island (or two) until their status can be determined. The problem in the EU and the US is that so-called migrants are just released into the general public with little or no vetting, and expected to turn up for asylum hearings sometime in a few months or years. With predictable results. As for the 'youths', if they are so eager to fight their civil war, they can go back to Eritrea and do so. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post superal Posted February 19 Popular Post Share Posted February 19 Mass immigration , both legal and illegal throughout Europe has caused many problems for countries economies , housing , health care and education etc . 1.2 million legal and 50,000 illegal immigrants arrived in the UK in 2023 . Legals are often approved because of family connections and student claims . Most bring , at best , a low skill level . The UK lost over 500,000 emigrant citizens to other countries who mostly use a points system to qualify for legal immigration . This equates as a UK brain drain . Now I hear that the UK is to allow foreign dentists to come to the UK without having to take UK dentistry exams . The mass immigration does not work and most Europeans that I talk to all agree that their countries living standards have the same problems as the UK and have reached an all time low , along with their loss of culture and an increased crime rate because of mass immigration . 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Pouatchee Posted February 19 Popular Post Share Posted February 19 another way of seeing this and i wish the politicians would understand this, is like having guests in your house. there are 2 types of guests. the ones who are polite and respect your house, and there are the guests who come in, go through your drawers and if they find something they like they might just commandeer it. what i hate about all this is, in canada... quebec and ontario particularly, is that the guests come in, get welfare and then go on to commit crimes and get rich off honest citizens. in montreal right now, there are organized gangs stealing cars and shipping them off to eastern block and middle east countries in containers from the port of montreal. some of the people having there cars stolen are even held up at gunpoint. what i have found, usually, is that when the media dont broadcast the names or pictures of the culprits it usually is because the culprits are migrants and the media doesnt want to add fuel to the fire. and this currently is the case in the news now 1 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
