Dutch riot police break up Turkish protest in Rotterdam.
#1
A diplomatic row between Turkey and the Netherlands escalates, after two Turkish
ministers are prevented from addressing a rally.

'Dutch riot police have broken up a protest by more than 1,000 supporters of Turkish
President Tayyip Erdogan, after diplomatic tensions between Turkey and the Netherlands.

Demonstrators had gathered outside the Turkish consulate in Rotterdam to show support
for Mr Erdogan after two Turkish ministers were prevented from addressing a rally in the
Dutch city ahead of Turkey's referendum next month.

Mr Erdogan is looking to gain support from the large number of Turkish people living in
Europe to help clinch victory in the 16 April referendum that could give him sweeping
new powers.

But the Dutch authorities view the referendum as a step backwards from democracy
and have told Ankara to keep its ministers away.
Police using water cannon, horses and dogs moved in to disperse the crowds after
several hours of demonstrations on Saturday evening.

Protesters hit back, throwing rocks at the police, while hundreds of cars jammed the
streets blaring their horns.

Tensions tipped over into violence after a day of fast-moving events, triggered when
Turkey's family affairs minister Sayan Kaya was stopped from attending the rally by
being expelled from the Netherlands.
Ms Kaya could be seen in images on Dutch NOS television appearing to argue with
officers about the situation.

Earlier, Dutch authorities also refused permission for foreign minister Mevlut Cavusoglu
to land in the city, saying he was not welcome to campaign for the referendum.

In response, Mr Erdogan accused the Dutch, who were once under Nazi occupation,
of being "the vestiges of Nazis"...'

So that must be it, these people in charge -who weren't alive durng the occupation of
the National Socialist German Workers' Party back in 1940, are continung the Nazi
ideology because...?

It's the European Union project, that's all. Turkey's wish to hold a referendum could
add to the undermining the confidence of a super-state that the unelected bureaucrats
want.

I read this yesterday and I Can Believe It!
Look hard at the Crowd, if these young men wish to vote and support their candidate of choice, Go Back To Turkey!
But instead they riot in a Sovereign Nation That They Are A Guess of!
If I was in charge of the Netherlands, I start deporting them and stop all new arrivals!
Once A Rogue, Always A Rogue!
