The video, for what it is, isn't bad, but it hardly describes modern Netherlands. There's no mention of the illicit drugs or semi-illicit marijuana. Also, I don't see any mention of current politics. The Dutch government often follows the US military blindly in major decisions. The people of the country don't quite agree with their government, however.
