Dutch MP Stephan van Baarle Clashes With Geert Wilders Over Israel and Palestinian Civilian Deaths
June 28, 2026
THE HAGUE— In a highly charged session of the Dutch House of Representatives, DENK party leader Stephan van Baarle fiercely confronted far-right politician Geert Wilders, branding him “utterly evil” for his unyielding backing of Israel’s military offensive. Holding up photographs of young victims, Van Baarle slammed the Party for Freedom (PVV) leader for refusing to look at the images, accusing him of turning a blind eye to a campaign that has claimed the lives of over 63,000 Palestinians, the majority of whom are women and children.
The fiery exchange exposed deep divisions within the Dutch Parliament regarding the Gaza conflict. While Van Baarle accused the far-right leader of complicity in what he termed a genocide, Wilders—a staunch, longtime supporter of Israel—brushed off the criticism, refusing to engage directly with the images and dismissing the confrontation as political theater.
