“After Brussels was linked to terror plots, the international media portrayed the city as a warzone. We wanted to change this perception with an honest answer.” Today, the Islamic jihad terrorists gave a different answer.
“FLASHBACK: Brussels Ridiculed Idea Of Islamic Violence In Ad [VIDEO],” by Blake Neff, Daily Caller, March 22, 2016:
In the wake of Tuesday’s deadly bombing that killed at least 34 people, Brussels officials may regret an advertisement two months ago ridiculing the idea the city was a center of Islamic radicalism.
VisitBrussels, the city’s tourism department, crafted the #CallBrussels campaign in an effort to disassociate the city with Islamic terror after residents were linked to the November, 2015, Paris attacks and other extremist plots.
As part of the campaign, VisitBrussels set up telephones across the city and invited people to call them in order to speak with Brussels passersby. It then used these calls to create a video touting Brussels as a peaceful, welcoming city.
“After Brussels was linked to terror plots, the international media portrayed the city as a warzone,” the ad said. “We wanted to change this perception with an honest answer.”
The ad then shows interactions with (supposedly) random Belgians, who assure callers the city is completely safe….

WOW

Oh, yeah, I remember that ad:
Wakeup says
Its a cutesy sort of place throw the muslims out and it will be just dandy.

Keep living in your naive rainbow candy sprinkles dreamworld, morons. They’re coming for you….they’re already here. Open your eyes.
Ren says
There is no more dumb than a dumb that denies he is.

The politician(s) who commissioned the naïve ads should be held up to ridicule. They put the public and tourists at risk with their gullible naivety.
Western elites who refused to learn about jihad terrorism and about Islam’s hatred of the disbelievers should be censured for CULPABLE NEGLIGENCE.
They have been warned repeatedly over the last 15 years about jihad terror and have steadfastly refused to learn anything about it whatsoever!
They have left us vulnerable to attacks like this one and worse, to more of the same in the future with their suicidal immigration policies.
Angela Merkel should be forced to resign as well as ALL Belgian politicians associated with Belgium’s immigration policies which have FAILED…FAILED!

@ CS
Holy cow! That was a real ad? I could only stomach about a minute. How pathetic and embarrassing!
Walter Sieruk says
The very idea of such a vicious and murderous jihad attack happening in Brussels may have been ridiculed .Nevertheless it’s also said “Never say never.” Likewise, the very idea of the Titanic sinking also had been ridiculed. Islam’s Koran does teach violence and killing. As in 4:89; 5:33. 9:5,111,123. 47:4 The terrible and tragic reality of the followers of Islam who also follow ISIS are very demonically skillful at that murderous Koranic instruction..
Charli Main says
The European Union parliament in Brussels, is probably the safest place in Europe, given that the lunatics that are running it, are relentlessly pushing for the Islamisation of Europe.
Not only are these loonies facilitating the entry into Europe of tens of millions of Muslims every year, they are also planning to admit the Muslim occupied countries of the Southern and Eastern Mediterranean to membership of the European Union.
Only seriously stupid people would kill the goose, that is laying their golden egg—- then again, Muslims are seriously stupid——————-

These horrific events are pious muslims who follow their koranic doctrine.
My heart goes out to the people of Belgium, to the American families of injured or killed.
Belgium appears to be a most beautiful country. Apparently this ad was to encourage visitors and declare all is well…..knowledge of your terrorist enemy is extremely necessary and those who want to close their eyes will not help Belgium or the EU.
Stay safe to all.
underbed cat says
Migration is part of the violent jihad process. It is also koranic doctrine. So is deception.

The price of denial, ostrich-like attitude, utter and sheer stupidity, appeasement, and inaction is more death and destruction at the hands of an emboldened, relentless and maniacal enemy bent on conquering and dominating, powered by an evil, supremacist and murderous ideology. No place for mistakes and weaknesses when you up against hardened Islamists who are adept at snapping off ostrich-necks.

Perfectly stated. And so sadly true.

Singh I agree with every word you say and am wondering what the hell has got into the brains of the people and leaders of Europe who are displaying a pathetic weakness.Has someone drugged the drinking water to make them so docile.NATO and Russia have vast land forces who could take out ISIS in Iraq and Syria with no trouble at all.We have a lame duck president in the USA who has done next to nothing against ISIS.The people of that pathetic little country Belgium stare sadly at the ground and chaulk their little messages on the sidewalk.I am told by an intelligent expert that their intelligence service is puny and won’t even talk to the police.
Brussels is the capitol of the EC !!! Angela Merkel doesn’t even want to hold the German flag and opens the door widerly to our enemies
HAS THE WORLD GONE MAD????
UK GET THE HELL OUT OF THE EC ON JUNE 23RD
Michael Copeland says
It is rather pitiable, the idea that some advertising spin would set everything right. This is the product of years of comfortable prosperity. The Conceited Ones live in a cloud of fantasy. They are not much use when it comes to reality.
Guy Jones says
Denial isn’t just a river in Egypt; it gets people killed.
The inability of feckless, intellectually and theologically dishonest and historically ignorant western politicians and leadership to honestly and unabashedly identify, condemn and combat the fascist, supremacist ideology of Submission without parsing, equivocation or caveats will be viewed as one of the primary causes of Europe’s falling under the Islamic banner. Secular, democratic cultures and societies that refuse to defend their borders, their values and way of life and their citizens don’t deserve to survive and will not survive, quite obviously.
Manual Paleologos says
My on-line European friends have been bitterly derisive of talk about any kind of moslem problem. “It is not happening here. You must read something other than the right wing press. They are the nicest chaps.” They’re quiet now.
But they invited those people into their country. Their circus. Their monkeys.
When their countries implods, we must absolutely seal our borders against European refugees. Let them stay home and fight or die. Euronate on them. We don’t want their disease, here. We have enough of their kind already.
Pong says
We do criticize islam (and rightly so), forgetting that the moslems population in the west is not sizeable enough to elect obvious islam sympathizers like it happened in Canada and Ireland. In the US obama administration has been promoting islam and yet about half of americans are ready to cast their vote for clinton, though, after getting so much money from moslems, it is quite obvious what kind of policies she will promote towards islam and moslems. Those americans, who will stay home on election day, because they don’t like Trump or Cruz, are the traitors to their country, their fellows citizens and all freedom loving people in the world. We use the words “personally responsibility” and go hysterical when collective responsibility is mentioned. There are good and responsible people in canada and ireland, but as a nation both have failed miserably and deserve to be looked at with contempt.
