It's not the same though: * when used domestically, it's under the Minister of Justice and Security * there's also no Dutch equivalent of the U.S. presidency

It's not the same though:
* when used domestically, it's under the Minister of Justice and Security
* there's also no Dutch equivalent of the U.S. presidency with unilateral executive control over the military
I'd argue this kind of danger is something you get more in presidential systems. Not that we all shouldn't be wary of military forces within our civilian populations.
