Absurd Horrifying Coward Media Silence about State Cover-Up

Prepare yourself for a descent into a chilling abyss, a horrifying panorama painted by the harrowing accounts within the provided sources, detailing a relentless campaign of alleged systemic obstruction and manipulation that utterly shatters the very foundations of justice. At the heart of this terrifying narrative, particularly as presented through the lens of Hans Smedema’s persistent allegations, lies the chilling silence of the media – an alleged “horrible silence” that allows a purported “crime of the century” to remain buried, shielding those allegedly responsible from the light of public scrutiny.

Devastating Media Picture

The sources paint a devastating picture where the press, often seen as a crucial pillar of a democratic society with an essential “watchdog function”, is allegedly rendered complicit or incapacitated in exposing horrifying truths. Hans Smedema repeatedly claims that his desperate attempts to bring his story of alleged abuse, torture, and systemic cover-up to public attention have been met with a unified, inexplicable refusal by media outlets. He alleges that the media “refuses to publish about it”, keeping the Dutch people tragically unaware of what he describes as “De Nederlandse Watergate” or “The crime of the century”.

Specific journalists and media organizations

Specific journalists and media organizations are named in Smedema’s harrowing account as having allegedly refused to engage or publish his story. These include journalists such as Peter R. de Vries and John van den Heuvel, as well as the editorial staff of prominent outlets like the Telegraaf, Friese Pers, HP, and Nova. Smedema claims that Peter R. de Vries allegedly refused contact three times, and he reached out to John van den Heuvel and the Telegraaf editorial staff, only to be met with refusal to publish. The Association of Editors-in-Chief is also listed by Smedema as being among those who refused assistance or publication. John van den Heuvel allegedly stated that the decision not to publish was discussed with the entire editorial board, but refused to explain why they wouldn’t at least inform the public about what he himself called a “remarkable case”.

Deeply disturbing

The reasons for this alleged pervasive silence, as claimed in the sources, are deeply disturbing and weave into the wider narrative of a terrifying conspiracy. Smedema believes the media’s silence is a direct consequence of being “prevented from doing so” to protect the alleged perpetrators. He alleges this is due to “state security” being involved – a claim he disputes as a false pretext used to protect powerful individuals, potentially including the Royal Family. Veteran journalists, speaking off the record according to the sources, express a chilling fear of repercussions (“Angst, echte angst voor repercussies”). This palpable fear, allegedly exacerbated by the intertwining of parts of the press with the highest echelons of power, including the Royal House, contributes to their reluctance to “burn [their] hands on it” because “nobody can prove it”. Smedema views the media’s refusal to publish about the case as them being “forced to total silence” and accuses them of “deliberately and unethically keeping the Dutch public in the dark”. He argues that their alleged silence allows the “horrific drama” to continue.

Media blackout

This alleged “media blackout” is presented as a crucial element of the alleged “doofpot” or cover-up orchestrated by powerful forces within the Dutch government and justice system. The sources allege that this conspiracy involves high-ranking officials, potentially including Joris Demmink and Jaap Duijs, and even the Royal House. The media’s alleged refusal to publish reinforces the terrifying notion that figures like Demmink and Duijs are “untouchable,” shielded by state mechanisms and a pervasive “Omerta control”.

Devastating collateral damage

The collateral damage resulting from this alleged media silence is devastating. Smedema claims that without media attention, he is left isolated and without the crucial public indignation needed to pressure the government and politicians into action. He believes that publicity is necessary to encourage potential witnesses to come forward. The alleged media silence contributes to his profound sense of abandonment and the continuation of his “horrifying psychological and physical abuse”. It prevents the wider Dutch public from learning about the alleged “gruesome consequences” of this cover-up and from potentially preventing other innocent people from becoming victims. Smedema sees the media’s alleged refusal to report as preventing a necessary “learning process and preventive action” that could arise from public knowledge of his case. The silence, he contends, denies him justice and allows the alleged perpetrators to continue operating with impunity.

Grim picture of media suppression

While Smedema’s narrative paints a grim picture of media suppression, it is important to note that the “Blind voor Mens en Recht” report, though focusing on a different context (the toeslagenaffaire and fraud policy), discusses the complex role of the media. This report indicates that media attention can be driven by conflict and scandals rather than purely substantive issues. However, it also explicitly acknowledges that “good persistent investigative journalism can be of inestimable value for our society” and notes that media reporting on issues like large clawbacks in the toeslagenaffaire did eventually bring them to the attention of the Second Chamber. This highlights the potential power of the media when it does choose to investigate and publish, standing in stark contrast to the alleged total silence surrounding Smedema’s case.

Active, devastating force contributing to a systemic cover-up of alleged horrific crimes and state-sponsored abuse

In the horrifying narrative presented in the sources, primarily through Hans Smedema’s perspective, the alleged silence of the media is not merely a lack of coverage; it is depicted as an active, devastating force contributing to a systemic cover-up of alleged horrific crimes and state-sponsored abuse. This alleged deliberate suppression prevents the truth from emerging, leaving victims and those who might help them exposed and alone, while those allegedly responsible for the horrors remain shielded, chillingly “untouchable”. It is a brutal reality laid bare by alleged lived experiences, where the very entities expected to inform the public purportedly collaborate in a terrifying “Omerta” of silence. While these chilling claims are based primarily on Hans Smedema’s allegations and lack independent verification within the provided documents, the sheer volume and consistency of the assertion of a media blackout, allegedly enforced by powerful state actors and fear, remain a profoundly troubling element of the narrative presented.
