I would not have known about this if you had not posted your pictures, Nonkel. I am very touched. Keep up the documentation and stay safe!

Waanzin (madness) is the only right word for these kind of situations.

Nonkel Duvel, you made a good report job using photos with great impact. I'm with Doel... however, unfortunately I have no power to stop the madness.

Hello,
I went to Doel together with my father (nonkel duvel), mother, brother and a classmate. My father asked me to take pictures in Doel. He explained me what's happening in this village. It's difficult for me to understand this, I'm 9 years old. But these are my pictures...

(my father helped me a little bit with this topic...)
Stop de waanzin = stop the madness
Doel moet blijven = Doel must stay
Politiekers missen elke logica... Neen aan een beslist beleid = Politicians are missing every logic... No to a decided policy !
Nonkel Duvel with my classmate.
Ik doe wat de overheid niet doet. Ik respecteer Doel = I do what the autorithies don't do. I respect Doel.

Lieve Olijfje, je hebt mooie foto's gemaakt en ook heel goed dat je ons dat trieste verhaal vertelt. Heel goed van je vader dat hij jullie daar mee naar toe neemt en dat je met eigen ogen kan zien dat onze wereld wel een beetje raar in elkaar steekt!
groeten van Giz.
Dear Olijfje, you have made beautiful pictures of this sad story. It is very good of your father that he took you there and that you could see with your own eyes that our world is a littlebit strange.
greetings Giz

I've been to Doel today, its very strange to walk around and don't see people in the streets. It got a bit depressing. I will upload some pics this week. Strange how a part of civilization slowly disapears.
Greetings Leon

the banner say's, when is the harbour going to live in peace with its neighbours?
without hate street
containers standing ready for the demolition of some houses
a house before demolition
some houses are already gone
nuclear plant in the background
signs of houses which are already destroyed
left behind chair and doll, hanging from a tree
city centre
Doel stays graffity
almost empty streets, panorama at a crossroad

the right place and the right moment to ask attention for this photo again; it's by Ton van Boxcel. one of my 'favourites' since a long time. but after Nonkel's, Olijfje's and Leon's photo's, it has become stronger, more dramatic. where are these children now? do they still live in Doel? where are there houses?

Nonkel, I've been reading about Doel for several years in the magazine Humo and from the beginning it was clear that the people from Doel didn't stand a change.
And it's sad. It's sad that the economy always wins without any concerns about its victims.
I can not precisely say what i mean in english, i'll do it in Dutch.
Verdomd jammer dat alles en iedereen moet wijken voor dat kortzichtige gewin.
Hele gemeenschappen vernield, geschiedenis weg en huizen waar generaties in geleefd is tegen de valkte. Er gaat meer weg dan alleen maar wat huizen, scholen en een kerk.
Alles ten gunste van de Antwerpse havens en wat als Doel tegen de grond ligt, welk dorp is dan aan de beurt?
The pictures of you are great, and so are the pictures of Olijfje and Leon van Ijzerdoorn.
I am a fan of decaypictures and despite the sadness of the subject, i would like to see more pictures of Doel.

This is so sad and my heart goes out to all those involved. Some of the houses in the photo's look relatively new and some are beautiful. Are the authorities re-housing Doel residents anywhere else? Will they get compensated in some way?
