The Theme Of The Broadcast Was About Possibly Confiscating The Passports Of Jihadists.
In the interview, Broertjes, a politician for Dutch Labor and former editor-in-chief of the highbrow Volkskrant daily, was asked whether he thought Jihadists who are leaving to fight in Syria and Iraq should be prevented from departing.
He opposed such steps, and added:
“Dutchmen after World War II went to Israel to fight the English. We didn’t prevent them then.”
