“The warning that the fighter jets can contribute to serious breaches of the laws of war does not, for the (Dutch) state, outweigh its economic interests and diplomatic reputation,” Zegveld said.
Money always talks.
“Yes we’re commiting genocide, but we’re earning good money from it”! - The Dutch
This is the best summary I could come up with:
THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) — A Dutch court on Friday rejected a request by a group of human rights and humanitarian organizations to order a halt to the transfer to Israel of parts for F-35 fighter jets.
In a written statement, the Hague District Court said the judge who heard the civil case concluded that the government of the Netherlands “weighed the relevant interests” before agreeing to the delivery of parts.
Lawyer Liesbeth Zegveld told the court that the Dutch government decided to continue transferring F-35 parts to Israel even after the deadly Oct. 7 attacks by Hamas triggered the Israel-Hamas war.
“The warning that the fighter jets can contribute to serious breaches of the laws of war does not, for the (Dutch) state, outweigh its economic interests and diplomatic reputation,” Zegveld said.
Government lawyer Reimer Veldhuis told the judge hearing the civil case that a ban on transfers from the Netherlands would effectively be meaningless as “the United States would deliver these parts to Israel from another place.”
It was not immediately clear if the groups that brought the civil case would appeal.

Burn the warehouse!
It’ll not damage Russia so nah
And russia has what to do with anything?
Most of, if not all, international organizations such UN and Hague court have double standards when it comes to Russian invasion of Ukraine and Israel occupation of Palestine.
The UN has been pretty clear about supporting Palestine and being against russia.
