    Oh...shut up. Honest to god, there's people who will snatch a tragedy -as it is unfolding- to have a go. Yes, we are all aware of the existence of Islamic terrorists. Anyone who has been awake for the past decade is aware of.

    You always find them in threads and comment sections like this, I'm convinced they are actually secretly delighted that bombings, killings, and maimimgs happen so they can have a rant about 'the left', the left being anyone who doesn't share their pathetically blinkered hate fuelled view of the world.

    Religion doesn't kill people, its nutters and terrorists that do.


    And why does this one religion have so much more nutters then any other ?

    Brussels has been on high alert this week and Im sure security is the tightest it has been and these b@#tards are still able to get in with and detonate explosives!

    God love all the people involved just awful!

    I genuinely do not know how we can resolve this. For the most part, we can't even identify exactly who it is we're fighting.

    That's the core of it and how it goes when you're fighting a guerrilla army of terrorists, unfortunately. To fight anyone that shares a nationality, religion or skin tone as them just means creating more desperate people who will be easy prey to the radicals. To fight just the ones that have shown their hands means the western countries have to remain ever on the defensive and wait for them to show their hands first.

    It's the worst sort of bastard war there is, judging by the history books.

    RIP to all those innocent people who lost their lives.

    It's quite telling that the first thing the knuckle draggers do is have a go at religion or immigrants before showing their respect.

    Really showing yourselves up there boys and girls.

    Complete nonsense post.

    What is the point of a thread like this if people can't discuss the possible reasons why these attacks are happening.

    I doubt anybody is secretly delighted people are being killed in order to have a rant about someone elses opinions.Only a complete lunatic would think like that.

    Attacks on western civilization, airports, subways, restaurants...etc. cheapest means of warfare for these to engage in. Scare the western ppl into going out, travelling, tear down free movement within Europe.

    This is scary, now I'm thinking will I go on that weekend to London, will I go hols to France like I was planning to? They've already destroyed tourism in turkey, tunisia ...etc.

    Everyday another horrendous loss of life replaces the day befores front page loss of life :(

    Mod

    Mods have put so much time into these threads already so I'm going to give a once off warning now.

    There will be zero tolerance for any racism, xenophobic comments, etc.

    I understand this is an emotive subject and the loss of innocent life is devastating but if you come in here spouting shîte, prepare to be banned.

    Metro station has been hit, as well as some EU institutions, apparently.

    Yep a 'spectacular' is underway in Brussels.

    Let's hope things are got under control as soon as possible.

    Maybe the capture of the Paris attacker in the last few days was meant as a distraction to allow the this campaign in Belgium...

    Yet your post is laced with finger pointing.

    Oh the irony.

    This is exactly like Paris, distraction tactics before a huge attack. I won't be shocked if there is a massive explosion somewhere later this morning.

    My two kids are in London for a few days. It does make me a bit nervous but will not stop me traveling within Europe this summer. You cannot let these nutjobs run your life.

    Make the practice of Islam punishable by death in the West. It would give vermin like this something to be scared of. Disgusting parasites.

    That would reduce us to their level. Let's just not give then planning permission for mosques and ignore their cries to ban civilised life.

    More likely moved up the timing for an already planned attack or one being plotted before they got caught maybe.

    You want a whole religion banned and followers killed because of a few tw@ts? This makes you as bad as them.

    Agreed but you have to question, how safe are we now? Brussels has been in lock down for months and yet this still happens?!

    What impact will this have on the Euro's?!
