  1. For Belgium, like the USA / Europe / Coalition troops, the karma is coming home. We’ve done it to others for decades. Not surprisingly those millions have taken offense at EU / America for doing it to them - mass murders, destruction of their lives and countries. Who wouldn’t be homicidal / suicidal by now. I would be (and almost am - against the USA, not Muslims). And none of these Western countries’ governing bodies / “leaders” seem to care whatsoever for their citizens (including Obama and dubya), only the rulers themselves positioning themselves for more power and money. Simple really. Hit, and you will like get hit back. Karma.

    Sad, expected. Arrest a bunch of murderous conspirators, and the survivors take revenge. But it sounds as if they’re simply going to go on, rather than completely freaking out.

  3. For what it’s worth, and in the face of immediate media coverage and the Right Wingnuttery freakout, led by The Donald, I’ll leave these right here.

    And it appears, the attacks from ‘radical Wingnuts and Christian terrorists’ should worry us more than the threat from “Moooslums’”!
