Most people in the Netherlands don’t really grasp what an economy is for. They treat it like abstract numbers and rules instead of what it actually is: the system that keeps society alive.
The economy is the bloodstream. It moves energy through the body. It decides what gets built, what gets maintained, who gets rewarded, and what kind of future is possible.
When you misunderstand that you start optimizing for the wrong things. You protect the spreadsheet but you starve the organism.

That's exactly the kind of small-minded thinking that led our country to this abysmal state. Yes, there were some earthquakes, structural damage was minimal. Hugely exaggerated. That doesn't take away that people should have been compensated, but even giving them a few % of the gas exploitation profits would have done that.
Moreover, it's reasonable to argue that the pros of extracting the gas as well as the strategic value in these turbulent times by far outweigh some local earthquakes.

Be like us Dutch:
>Sit on some of the largest remaining underground reserves in Europe
>Spend billions on Nordstream and look the other way when Ukraine/US blow it up
>Pour concrete in your gas wells to ensure no future government can access the gas ever again in order to save the environment (and minor local earthquakes)
>Become dependent on US and Qatari LNG, destroying your cost base and local competitive position
>Only have 10% gas reserves remaining as of today, which will be gone in a few days if its get really cold

@Strijder124 "Hij heeft een geniaal team om zich heen verzameld en die is bezig de rol van het Amerikaanse imperium te bestendigen.” Laat me niet lachen. Trump is een pure, dictatoriale solist. Zijn “geniale team” likt de binnenkant van zijn endeldarm nog om niet in ongenade te vallen.
Nederlands

Leon de Winter over Trump: "Zeer succesvol, een man die verschrikkelijk goed weet hoe hij de media bespeelt en zijn tegenstanders helemaal krankzinnig maakt."
"Hij woont zoals dat heet 'rent free' in heel veel linkse hoofden. Zonder er iets voor te doen hangt hij continu in het hoofd van veel tegenstanders, Trump dit en Trump zo."
- En al die andere dingen waar we dagelijks met Trump mee bezig zijn. Allemaal gekke filmpjes op sociale media waarin hij de Obama's discrimineert.
"Dat is 'rent free' wonen in jouw hoofd. Ik hoorde het gisteravond ook in een talkshow met Rob de Wijk, de grote geopolitieke kenner, die het niet begreep. De ene keer zegt Trump A en dan zegt hij weer B. Hij heeft toch niet de verplichting om Rob de Wijk uit te leggen dat als hij A zegt, dat hij bij A blijft? Hij manipuleert, het is spel."
"En hij is bezig om die grote verschrikkelijk gevaarlijke samenwerking voor het Westen, Rusland, Iran, China en Noord-Korea om die uit elkaar te spelen. Het is heel ingewikkeld. Zijn grote opgave is of hem het gaat lukken om Poetin los te krijgen uit die club."
"Hij heeft een geniaal team om zich heen verzameld en die is bezig de rol van het Amerikaanse imperium te bestendigen. En godzijdank, want we hebben maar drie smaken de Russische smaak, de Chinese smaak en de Amerikaanse smaak. Laten we blij zijn dat ze daaraan werken, dat Amerika niet ondermijnd wordt."

You are very clearly just echoing the phrase "power vacuum" without any substantial basis beyond guesswork and opinion pieces of laymen. "Oh, Iraq War, power vacuum, ..." and the argument usually stops there.
Iraq was one specific case: regime removal with total institutional dismantling and absolutely no organized successor. That does not automatically generalize to every intervention scenario, so you cannot use "power vacuum" as some ultimate gotcha.
If you are claiming an intervention in Iran would create a power vacuum, then specify the mechanism. Which institutions would collapse and why? Why would not the IRGC, regular military, or the bureaucratic core consolidate under an entirely new regime? What would prevent a successor center of power from forming there? Why would it inevitably "lead to worse despotic radicals in control"?
Otherwise saying so much you just did in this thread is just "oh, Iraq happened once, therefore always" which is not geopolitical analysis, nor can be even considered a serious opinion on the matter.
