I've subscribed to your videos, and I like both politicians and monarchs. Anyway, I heard about that attack, and it's great she survived. One goof, you said this was in English, but it sounds more like Dutch.

English as in English subtitles, I apologise for any confusion. : ) I noticed quite a few people complaining about not being able to understand this video message by Queen Beatrix. You may have noticed it has been featured in most news reports about the incident.

This is an incredibly sad thing to have occurred, and it is a kindness that you have posted Queen Beatrix's very moving reaction.

spreek nederlands a.u.b eej die drama van vorig jaar was triest ik moest huilen.

[Knappa22]

She sounds sincerely concerend and very shocked :(

The attack was horrible.

[Bigredgumball]

Thats terrible! Shes such a nice lady, you can see shes truely shaken by this. So sad to hear about the innocent bystanders too.

[kardentyrell]

conspiracy theories not withstanding, the planet IS overpopulated.

[Brulluhman]

Ik vind het jammer dat er niet van harte wordt meegeleefd met de militairen in Afghanistan.

Die oorlog is... voor multi interest vatbaar. Militairen kunnen daar zitten voor de wederopbouw.. of een oliepijplijn of om ongenoegen te uiten over moslims... oh jah.. voor de moslims (facisme).

Het kan daar allemaal.. maar hoe gaan wij om met de gesneuvelden.. Ik heb onze majesteit er weinig over horen spreken.

She and her husband are up to no good!  Read about some of the things they are involved in. ex, reducing the current world population by 1/3 by 2011.

[Rockafelluh]

planning secretly and deciding worlds future? have you even listened to yourself? no offense but i dont think that she is that powerful to plot something like that QEII would be your best shot.

If you search at: Queen's day attack, you'll find plenty of video's of the attack itself..

Queens Day is a national celebration in the Netherlands, when the people celebrates the birthday of HM the Queen together with the Royal Family. All over te country are festivals and other activitys, when you're planning to come to Holland, please, come once on the 30st of april, its wonderful to experience it once. But you have to be dutch to completely understand it, i've heard of other foreign people..
