“At least 50 supporters of Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) are currently working at Belgium’s Zaventem airport, Belgium’s Nieuwsblad newspaper reported late last month, citing airport security officials.” What could possibly go wrong?
“Explaining why people like Laachraoui get hired at places like the EU Parliament, Lode Vanoost, former deputy speaker of the Belgian Parliament, said that the badly-paid, temp jobs often go to people from migrant communities. Employee turnover is very high and the vetting procedure, which Vanoost described as ‘outdated’ in an interview with RT, simply can’t follow the personnel flow.” Vetting for jihadis is impossible in any case. And it would be “Islamophobic” not to hire these non-vetted Muslims.
“Brussels bomber worked at Zaventem airport for 5 yrs – report,” RT, April 21, 2016:
One of the suicide bombers who blew himself up at the Brussels airport in Zaventem on March 22 had worked on the site for as long as five years, Belgium’s VTM television reported.
Najim Laachraoui “worked at Brussels airport until the end of 2012,” Flemish-language VTM said, adding that the terrorist had been recruited by a temp agency and knew the site like the back of his hand. “He was well-informed about security at Zaventem,” the broadcaster reported, adding that although it was not clear whether the man had already been under the influence of Islamic State, “people can radicalize very quickly.”
VTM did not provide any details about the kind of work Laachraoui carried out at the Brussels airport. Airport staff usually have access badges valid for five years, it said.
The broadcaster said that a hidden prayer room had been discovered at Brussels airport shortly before the attacks “where radicalized staff gathered to pray in secret.” The airport shut down the prayer room at the request of police, VTM said, adding that there’s a list of “at least 50 radicalized airport employees.”
At least 50 supporters of Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) are currently working at Belgium’s Zaventem airport, Belgium’s Nieuwsblad newspaper reported late last month, citing airport security officials.
It emerged earlier this month that one of the Islamic State suicide bombers, who killed 32 people at the Brussels airport and on a rush-hour metro train, had worked as a janitor in the European Parliament in 2009 and 2010. A source close to the inquiry told AFP it was Najim Laachraoui, a 24-year-old Belgian who prosecutors said blew himself up in the airport attack. At the time of his temporary work in the parliament, he had no criminal record, the European Parliament said.

Yes, very quickly, you see? One day they’re regular people, the next they’re bearded thugs preying on the weak. Could happen to anyone, but for whatever strange reason it only tends to happen with people of a very specific religion, from all schools of jurisprudence and all spectrums of “moderation”…
Mike says
I’ve seen it happen to Christians too.
Some go “Evangelical” and start talking Jesus all the time.
Then there are Catholics who join nunneries and things like that.
I’ve seen Jews turn Lubavitch and start wearing black coats and hats..
The most annoying are the ones who turn Jehovah’s Witness and knock on my door on Saturday mornings.
The difference is, although some might be weird or annoying, none of the above have a general tendency to violence.

“Employee turnovers is very high” … “Brussels bomber worked at Zaventem airport for 5 years – ” How long have the 50 others been working there? Look out for workplace anger built up after many years, it had to be that.

What can go wrong? Lots.
50 radicals can do much harm. But hundreds and thousands can do much more harm.
One Muslim in six approves of a terrorist group…it’s a small step for them to join other terrorists if their faith in Mohammed is strong enough.
Interestingly, well-informed Muslims are LESS likely to become suicidal killers, than less-informed Muslims.
15% of Muslims approve of terror…WHICH ONE WILL BECOME A JIHADIST AGAINST US?
marble says
One in six may support terrorism today, but each success will bring the once reluctant into the fray. That will be assisted with news reporting adding to the excitement as governments remain pacific .

In the future, history will write: The Western civilisation was lost because of the sentence “not all Muslims are terrorists”
Eus says
history is written by the victors, but in this case the winners will not even be able to know how to write . They will be busy killing each other .

The ‘good Muslims’ are hardly shouting their heads off, condemning their own extremists. Who knows – perhaps they’re afraid of their own violent fellow-cultists?!

The Fifth Column of the Allah Gang, the Ummah or Mohammedan Mob, the Empire of Islam.
The awful reality is that every Muslim is in esse or in posse a fifth columnist, an enemy agent. Some are ‘sleepers’, some are active, and the ‘sleepers’ can become active. The only ones that cease to be dangerous are the declared apostates: those that openly and publicly renounce Islam and defect to the Camp of the Infidels, under circumstances where so defecting is if anything more dangerous than not; such people are best viewed in the same light as those who defected from Mao’s China or from Soviet Russia – welcomed, but with caution, bearing in mind the possibility of the double agent. Those that are genuine will fully understand why they are ‘on probation’.
The most dangerous Muslims of all are perhaps the Nuaym bin Masuds: those who, born and raised in infidel families, convert to Islam but *conceal* the fact that they have thus converted, and henceforward work *covertly* to advance the power of Islam / the Ummah. They are like a mafioso ‘plant’ within the police force.

The only way to lessen the danger of the Fifth Columnists is to .. not have a Fifth Column.
To END – permanently – ALL entry of identifiable/ declared Muslims into historically and currently majority-Infidel lands, everywhere. The West and beyond the West. First-world and third-world. Countries that don’t currently have any Muslims at all – and there *are* , believe it or not, still some, MUST shut their gates against Muslims, NOW; they will reap the benefits in domestic peace and quiet. Those – such as Iceland – that have a mere handful need to STOP letting any more in, NOW, and find some way of encouraging the departure of those already present. If they do that, they will be sitting pretty. Those with larger Mohammedan colonies – the worst-afflicted being places like India, and the UK, and France, and yes, Israel – will have to make some tough decisions, quickly, or risk being overwhelmed in future.
But *everybody* – however they set out to root out the existing mohammedan colonies – can make whatever changes they need to make, to STOP bringing any more *declared* Muslims in. And while offering asylum to fleeing *non-Muslims* – such as Christians and Hindus from Pakistan, or Assyrian Christians from Iraq – they will have to make it quite, quite plain to those entering that any Mohammedan found to have pretended to be what he ain’t in order to get a foot inside the door, will be given the boot the *instant* his imposture is detected.
Got Muslims? Got Jihad.
Fewer Muslims? – Less Jihad. More Muslims? – More Jihad.
No Muslims? – Then you don’t get jihad from within, though if you have a Muslim-infested country next door, you will need to be fortifying and guarding and defending your boundaries against assault/ infiltration into the foreseeable future.

I do not understand the photo: a man walks with a suitcase right past a wounded man, seemingly wanting to ignore the wounded man. Is this business as usual or someone who doesn’t care or someone who seems ok with the situation? Looking closer, I wonder if the person is European.
