  • Yeah most likely that the best way, let's just sit and wait for them to kill us. After all violence is baaaad and we will defeat them with power of love and crayons...

    Wouldn't the more calm and rational choice be to just do nothing so that it can keep happening?

    How convenient...

    Don't act condescending towards me. I don't know the inner workings of the Belgian nation security wise, socially wise, politically wise, or any other -y wise. It's not "convenient" that I don't know everything, it's honest.

    I do morurn the dead, it's the living that disgust me. Belagians became so pathetic that it isn't even funny.

    So you mourn the dead, you're just disgusted by other living people mourning the dead. Understandable.

    What Belgium should do is to shut down all Mosques for the time being, seal them and then thoroughly for any links to terrists. If found Imams get arrested instatly while those that attended should have their property searched. That's the calm and rational way.

    Because when horrible things happen, infringe on peoples' rights!

    That's disgusting. Why not throw them all in temporary camps while they're at it.

    Option two is that the Men of Belgium( If there are any left) should take the matters in their own hands since the state is unwilling and so incomeptent that this happened in the middle of the anti-terrist opperation.

    Haha, what?

    Excuse me, what? Do you have any idea how bad that would be? Putting all religious and civil rights aside, that would still be plain dumb. It would solve nothing, if there were there only a few terrorists among the Muslims there, now all Muslims will protest against the government and more terrorists will appear, since you gave them the reason to do so. That would just cause more harm than it would solve!

  • Eh, I won't begrudge people their minor acts of solidarity. Everyone reacts to shit in their own way and I see no harm in what they're doing.

    On the other hand, I can't stomach the people who make money exploiting these tragedies. Just wait a day or two, commemorative t-shirts, coffee mugs, key chains and other crap will be flooding the market. A lot of people profited off the Charlie Hebdo and Bataclan attacks, I can't see this one being any different.

  • Yeah, arrest innocent people is the right thing to do! Violate their rights of properties! Every muslim is guilty!
    It's the better way to get every muslims to the ISIS's cause. Not to mention from a law's POV, a country acting like that would be punished by international community and european union.
    France put the state of urgency (where law can be bent): it doesn't work better. Also France uses this for her interest, to keep ecologists militants away from the COP21 for example.
    You want to arrest all the muslims? Special security services know them for the most part: but if they act, the terrorists who are still free and not known from them will hide even more, and it will be totally impossible to get them.
    Acting like you want is simply not being a man, it's just being as sauvage as them, acting like these craven.

    No, it doesn't. The Islamic State consistently losing territory and sway is evidence of that not being the case. The massive amounts of airstrikes, training being given to militias to fight against ISIS, and support for groups fighting against ISIS is proof of this not being the case.

    Their docile reaction disgust me. They got punched in the face yet they draw flowers at the assilant feet instead of punching back.

    So, AGAIN, what would you have them doing in the picture? What action do you want them to be doing to mourn the dead that would tickle your fancy?

    Pesky human rights interfering with what you want done. Maybe we should just do away with them, since they just seem to get in the way.

    Yes, spell it out. I'm confused. Don't skip a single detail in this "raising arms" you want to see take place. Please and thank you.

    Look You and I will never agree.

    No, we will not. Because I don't believe in removing peoples rights unless they have necessitated their removal (hence I support prison).

    I can't even begin to understand your pacifistic ways, do you even know how to hate?

    Do I hate? I used to. I used to hate a lot of things. Do you know what hate breeds? More hate, and more hate, and yet more hate. I'm not a pacifist. I could and would kill under the right circumstances, but not out of hate. In fact, I'm fairly sure I would only do it for the opposite.

    Ok then as a Muslim what do you propose that should be done?

    I think if the government really wanted to solve anything, they should go in two ways:

    1. Go Cyber, attack any website, Facebook page, blog or YouTube channel that may have anything to do with ISIS or terrorism in general. That could prevent a huge portion of the communications that ISIS does with it's people in pretty much anywhere.
    2. Have stronger and bolder regulations on immigrants with a Muslim background (and I mean a Muslim country, not Muslims in general), fight illegal immigration by any means necessary.

    You see? The harm mostly comes from the outside not the inside.

    "We"? Who are "we"?
    War means an action between two identities. As far as I know, muslims aren't the Islamic State. The only war which exists is the one between countries and the islamic state.

    France is bombing them since two years, give weapons to the ones fighting them.. And it's not the only one doing things against them; if you look at the coalition against the islamic state, there are 22 countries involved.

    The only thing I don't understand is why they don't send ground troops. Maybe they fear to have the anger of the locals.. America's war for oil didn't help to give them trust.
    Maybe the economy's crisis put a problem to use/hire soldiers too (it would be quite pitiful if it's for this motive though..)

    What should be done? There's no true solution, otherwise it would have been already taken. So keep fighting until it ends, security services keep doing their jobs and one day it should be back to normal. But hitting civilians? Using your grief for what some fools did against them? It's the better way to give them free soldiers to their cause.

    You mean by Russia, Assad and YPG? Since Westen coaliton doesn't do shit. They only recently started to bombard ISIS tankers because Russia started doing that...you want to know why the didn't? So the poor drivers won't be killed...

    So, AGAIN, what would you have them doing in the picture? What action do you want them to be doing to mourn the dead that would tickle your fancy?

    Cool down, I see you getting worked up. I already answered that, eye for an eye

    Pesky human rights interfering with what you want done. Maybe we should just do away with them, since they just seem to get in the way.

    The funny thing that we do away with them...you know how? Under the guise of war with terrorism. The invigilation of people's private date the slowly rising competence of secret service and police... Step by step, every time terrorist strike the state give itself little more power over us...

    Yes, spell it out. I'm confused. Don't skip a single detail in this "raising arms" you want to see take place. Please and thank you.

    They should fight. Here I said that.

    No, we will not. Because I don't believe in removing peoples rights unless they have necessitated their removal (hence I support prison).

    Too lenient.

    Killing for love...you know how easily I could twist that to suit my needs? But I won't I repect that at least you would not lie down and be rolled over but there's a need for respone. Strong and terrifying one, because if we won't show them that it's better not to fuck with us they will continiue doing this forever and no amount of discussing, flower painting profile changing will do squad against them.

    It's late and I'm off to sleep. Let's leave it at that.

    that's valid but what about Imams who preach about it in Mosques?

    See that's the problems europe is incapable of doing that thanks to the yeas of tolerance. Imagine if Macedonias started to shoot at the illegal migrants...

  • You know, checking whether they come from more conservative countrys or not, whether their country is part of the ongoing war in Iraq and Sham and how suited they are and their ideology for life in Europe in general, and if they don't meet the requirements the government is ought to outright ban them from passing it's borders. It may be a lengthy and expensive process, but it's better than having to afford fixing up areas bombarded by terrorists and would save them a fortune later on.

    I feel like I'm talking like Trump right now, but in a state like this? It's the only possible and least harmful solution they got right now.

    Well Belgian's far right people went to protest but were chased away by police...sadly I see only thee ways here.

    1. West will snap out of it's stupidity and change it's ridiculous policies and force migrants to accept their culture and obey their laws.
    2. They will go down that road and soon we will have Euroarabia.
    3. Or the radical far right movement will gain power and we will have Holocaust 2,0 Muslim edition.

    1st option is rather idle wishing so it's between option 2&3 either way the west is screwed for me. I just hope Eastern Europe will manage to reform and re-arm itself in time to survie the oncoming storm. I guess you should wish us luck.

    I refer to Euro-American or more precisely Christian civilization against muslim one. and in case you didn't get the memo we've been at war with muslims for over fourteen centruries. This time around instead of war they try to outbreed us.

    France is bombing them since two years, give weapons to the ones fighting them.. And it's not the only one doing things against them; if you look at the coalition against the islamic state, there are 22 countries involved.

Maybe the economy's crisis put a problem to use/hire soldiers too (it would be quite pitiful if it's for this motive though..)

    For two reason, one like you said money, it cost a lot of cash to conduct war. Second reason is that their mulims would most likely riot if they sent army there.

    What should be done? There's no true solution, otherwise it would have been already taken. So keep fighting until it ends, security services keep doing their jobs and one day it should be back to normal. But hitting civilians? Using your grief for what some fools did against them?

    There are solutions, goverments are just afraid to take them, and will wait until it's too late. Also tell me how many people killed in those terrist attacks were soliders? That's right. They don't hold their punches so we shouldn't too. There are no civilians in this war.

    So well.. Who cares now? My country was also an ally with the ottoman empire; muslims in colonies helped us in two world war for almost no cost for them. I'm pretty sure there were muslims in them.
