Brussels is 25% Muslim. Why is anyone surprised that the social compact (a Western idea) has broken down, and crime is rampant? Why is anyone surprised that the possibility of terrorist attacks has increased? Why is anyone surprised that attacks on Jews have increased? In the first two months after the October 7, 2023 terrorist attack on Israel, antisemitic attacks in Belgium increased by a factor of 13!
So now they are going to go after Americans? How does this change anything? The Muslim world is on the march, and they will kill anyone their book commands…starting with Jews, but it is an inclusive command, so really…anyone who isn’t a Muslim. And when there aren’t any kafirs around, they go after each other! Shia vs. Sunni is as old as Islam.
But the inability to function in polite modern society is another unintended consequence of Europe’s opening of its borders. They got Islamic terrorism, but they also got the special bonus of a culture that has no respect for the cultural mores developed over 2,500 years…
So they got rape and assault and murder and theft and destruction of property and casual aggression directed at…everyone. And let us not forget wholesale fraud directed at the government programs intended to help them! We got a healthy helping of that in America, but Europe has a big head start!
US State Department Issues Travel Advisory for Belgium
The U.S. Department of State has updated the travel advisory for Belgium, warning about risks to American travelers due to terrorism, crime, and unrest.
Outfits inspired by terrorist organizations “are intent on attacking U.S. citizens abroad,” including in Europe, the department said in a July 23 update. Belgium had been designated with the “Level 2: Exercise Increased Caution” classification earlier, with the latest update retaining the classification, while adding in risks of crime and unrest.
Terror operatives can use knives, vehicles, and firearms to target crowds. They typically aim their attacks at vulnerable and unprotected targets, such as places of worship, schools, shopping malls, public transportation systems, hotels and restaurants frequented by tourists, and high-profile public events, according to the advisory.
Low-level street crime, such as purse snatchings, robberies, and pickpocketing, is common, especially in major cities, trams, train stations, at the Brussels metro at night time, and in public areas such as restaurants, the department said. Criminals may operate as teams, targeting people by bumping or shoving into them, especially in crowds, the advisory said, while warning Americans to remain alert to distractions.
So…explain to me again the advantage of opening Western borders to people like this? The short term bump in the voting rolls for the left is going to change quickly once Muslims become enough of a voting bloc to sway elections. And they will sway toward Islam, because that is what they do.
New York City has a taste of it with the election of the Islamist Mamdani. Dearborn and Paterson and Passaic and Brooklyn and Philadelphia and Houston and Chicago have their problems too. See the pattern?
So what does Islam bring to those cities? It certainly seems like they bring lots and lots of crime and urban blight and an explosion in welfare costs, not to mention an intense focus on Jews and Israel; they are the canaries in the coal mine. Sure, Islam is most exercised by Jews, but Catholics will do as a target in a pinch. Just take a look at what Islam is doing in Nigeria right now…murdering Catholics every single day! And the world cares not a whit. And let us not forget those pesky Protestants and Hindus (Pakistan-India border anyone?).
If you think that the Muslims in America are any different than those in Nigeria or Pakistan, I have a bridge to sell you.
