Reporters showed up at the Mieraskerk church in the town of Krimpen aan den Ijssel near the city of Rotterdam.

The journalist Jacco van Giessen shared a video of the incident on Twitter, writing that "the pain has gone but I am still shocked — I was attacked during my work this morning by a churchgoer in Krimpen."

Great for the church goers! The information warfare specialist was in fact doing his job by attacking the church goers. They have a right to attack that soldier back.

When attacking “journalists” all rules and regulations should be suspended for the duration.

Charge the propagandists with their hate crime for interfering with a religious observance.

He claimed that he was attacked while doing his work? What a liar. He was interrupting them.

I was able to attend church yesterday for the first time in quite a while. I was surprised to see very few masks.
It gave me hope that even law and order Christians have had enough.
