Europe is at War

At least according to the French PM in the wake of today's terrorist attacks in Brussels.

It's what vermin do.

The EU opens it's borders to provide sanctuary to millions of refugees and this is how a bunch of homegrown terrorists show their gratitude. The people doing this shit are not sneaking into Europe to slaughter people, they were born in Europe.

But perhaps we should be trying to understand how bitter they are to be growing up in the ugly and oppressive world of France, Belgium, the Netherlands, etc., rather than in the paradise of their Middle East homeland of which they have been robbed. Perhaps not. Perhaps the peace loving family members of terrorists, who know exactly what their loved ones are up to, might consider turning them in to the authorities before they can blow anybody to shreds. Fat fucking chance.

You're already drawn the conclusion that this was a lone whack job (or small band of whack jobs) and not an orchestrated attack? Based on what evidence?

It is assumed that it is the Molenbeek group. One (Salah Abdeslam) of their members was arrested recently. It was reported that he was talking and it is felt that the group then stepped up their attack.

Molenbeek Brussels is a hot bed of home grown Muslim radicalism. The Belgians for a long time went to sleep and ignored the agitation in this area...the f#@king capital of Europe.

And please people...don't be telling us about the crusades and the Spanish Inquisition OK? It appears to be human nature for almost every culture/religion to have their moment of mass insanity. It's Islam's turn right now.

Yes, we have Christian sovereign citizens, and homegrown US Christian fundamentalist cells that have generated a McVeigh now and then.

But nothing like the hundred or more worldwide terrorist groups we're dealing with that are generated from this culture. And not just the slaughter...the kidnapping, rape and sexual slavery as well.

Why TF are brave Muslim women like Irshad Manji and Ayan Hirsi Ali risking everything in their quest for reformation? Because that is where the problem lies.

But what about the Crusades and the Spanish Inquisition?

Its also fertile recruiting ground for ISIS. That's why the "homegrown" comment is questionable, IMHO.

According to RT, ISIS has claimed responsibility.
