“A man in his 20s, reportedly of Turkish origin, was arrested at the scene but was not said to be planning an attack.” How do they know that? Why else was he carrying a machete? And if he wasn’t planning an attack, why was the neighborhood evacuated? The denial of law enforcement authorities gets increasingly ridiculous.
“Machete-wielding man causes evacuation of neighbourhood in Liege, Belgium,” by Caroline Mortimer, Independent, August 7, 2016 (thanks to Benedict):
A neighbourhood in the Belgian city of Liege was evacuated after a machete-wielding man was spotting in the area, local media say.
Police received a call at around 6:20am local time (5:20am UK time) on Sunday morning saying there was a man with a machete in the Carre neighbourhood of the north-eastern city.
A man in his 20s, reportedly of Turkish origin, was arrested at the scene but was not said to be planning an attack.
According to local newspaper La Venir, he does not have a criminal record and will be referred to the city’s prosecutor during the course of the day.
There are no indications at this stage that the incident is connected to terrorism, but it comes the day after a man was shot dead after attacking and wounding two female police officers with a machete in Charleroi in the country’s south.
The assailant was reported to have shouted “Allahu Akbar” as he attacked the officers outside the main police station before a third officer nearby shot him dead.
Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel cut short his holiday to respond to the incident and said the “initial indications” pointed to it being a terror incident….
A Muslim screaming “Allahu akbar” and attacking police officers, and “initial indications” are that it was a terror incident? Hey, don’t jump to conclusions, Michel!

“Machete-wielding Muslim causes evacuation of neighborhood in Liege…” At the risk of sounding a bit flippant, this really is starting to get somewhat boring now. If these people really do have a problem about behaving in a proper civilised fashion, is it not reasonable – for the sake of everyone – simply to get shot of them all, or/and find some way of putting them out of their misery? I believe that the vetinary profession have substances that could produce a desired effect quickly.
Alvin Woods says
They can’t shoot/deport them all yet. The EU hasn’t finished their master plan.
jayell says
So there’s hope for us in the UK since we’ll be out of it shortly!!!
VampireJack says
Yeah, sure we will.
There will be a 2nd referendum after a stage financial crisis, and several months of pro-EU propaganda, and the remainers will win (by fair means or, more probably,foul) by a landslide.
Our politicians have no intent whatsoever for us to leave the EU.
Alvin Woods says
I’m with VJ. The House 9f Lords can still block this but as VJ said their may beca 2nd referendum linked with anvearly election OR it could be reversed with a Labour Party victory. Once article 50 is completed there’s no going back but right now it *ain’t over ’til the fat lady sings*
Shane says
In America, the cops probably would have shot this savage dead!
Saiful Rimkeit says
Yes. The master plan is nothing less than execution and all out end of WW3. We’re in the middle of it already.
Ashley says
I have to agree with you, Jayell. Another day, another “machete-wielding” incident. It IS getting a tad tedious…
To step out into the street to run an errand or take a stroll is now courting danger.
The world has gone mad…
Kolga says
This is Europes new normal.
So sad.
WorkingClassPost says
How phobic these Belgian’s are.
What could be suspicious about a muslim carrying a machete on Sunday morning as people were preparing to go to church? The poor guy probably just uses it to sharpen pencils.
Cast-iron defense, all they gotta do is prove that he can read…
Hmm. Might not be such a good defense after all.
ECAW says
Probably just a hard working chap on his way to the sugar cane fields to earn a living to support his family. They have sugar cane in Belgium don’t they?
Michael says
Certainly the young man was just hacking his way through the jungle foliage there in Liege? Yes?
Walter Sieruk says
The jihad-minded Muslim thug who attacks the Belgian police was despicable. Regardless if ISIS really inspired that violent and vicious jihadist attack or not. In the Bible in Romans 13: 1, 2 it is written “Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. Therefore, whoever resists the authority resist resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgment on themselves.” [N.K.J.V.] In addition to all this, in verses 3 and 4 in this same chapter of the Epistle of Romans, with emphasis on verse 4 it actually refers to governmental law enforcement officers as a type of “ministers of God” Therefore, it stands to reason that attacking , fighting, shooting and murdering police officers is really attacking, fighting, shooting and murdering ministers of God. How evil, how heinously wicked, how demonic, how monstrous. What and affront to all that is decent, good and right.

Angemon says
I’ve walked around the street while carrying an axe. Never got my ass thrown in jail. Either laws in Belgium are harsher or there’s something missing in this story.
jayell says
I think there is a subtle difference between a machete and an axe.They’re usually not quite the same shape and weight, and I believe that one tends to do things that are a tad more antisocial with a machete than with an axe, especially if one is of a certain religious persuasion. And there seem to be rather a lot of people in Belgium (and elsewhere in Europe) of a ‘certain persusion’ who recently seem to have developed an interest in performing somewhat antosocial and medically inadvisable acts against their fellow citizens using sharp objects as featured here. Which probably explains why this specimen was arrested.

Because the West is largely “post” religion, it presumes that everyone else in the world is too.

Belgium: Machete-wielding Muslim causes evacuation of neighborhood in Liege
………………….
Increasingly, this insanity is the “new normal” in civilized Europe. This is what an invasion of Muslims brings.
efoc says
102 years ago in 1914, the Germans invaded Belgium and Liège was the scene of the first battle of World War One. The fierce Belgian resistance delayed the German advance which undermined the rationale and effectiveness of the Schlieffen Plan.
And today, in 2016, one Muslim wielding a machete is enough to evacuate an entire neighbourhood in Liège.
Times have changed.
Mockingjay says
If a muslim is caught BEFORE carrying out his – or hers – terrorist attack, he or she will deny that he or she had any such intentions.
If a muslim is caught AFTER carrying out his or her attack, the Western authorities will – at least try – to deny that he or she had any such intentions.
So – real certfied islamic terrorist intentions are actually very rare.
efoc says
100% spot on.
Robert_K says
Like the Belgian police the Pope will tell you that Allahu Akbar can only be a call to peace.

Since muslim attacks are increasingly being classified as “mental issues” THEN MAYBE THERE IS A CAUSE….
HMMMMMM
WHAT COULD IT BE ?
Iftikhar Ahmad says
Muslim community has been victim of Islamophobia for the last 50 years. Since 9/11 and 7/7 it has been a victim of terrorism. Thousands of Muslim youths are being searched in streets by the police and a lot of them are behind bar without any trial. Now Muslim youths are victim of sexual grooming. What do you expect from them?
What do you expect from a Muslim youths who were the product of British schooling? Those Muslim youths who are involved in Terrorist activities are the product of British schooling which makes them mis-fit for their own community. They do not know where the belong. They are victim of Identity Crises. Muslim migrants are living in a society which is institutionally racist. Brits must learn to respect and tolerate those who are different. Children should be taught about living religions so that they could learn to respect and tolerate those who are in their schools or who live near their own homes. British schooling is the home of institutional racism and British teachers are chicken racist. This is one of the main reason why Muslim parents would like to send their children to Muslim schools. I set up the first Muslim school in 1981 in Stratford, London in 1981 and now there are 188 Muslim schools and only 12 are state funded. I would like to see each and every Muslim child in a state funded Muslim school. I hope my dream would come true one day.
Muslim youths are angry, frustrated and extremist because the state schools with monolingual non-Muslim teachers have robbed them of their cultural
roots and their literature and poetry. They have been in a wrong place and a wrong time during their developmental periods. They have been mis-educated and de-educated by the British educational system. Many young British Muslims – who comprise over 50 percent of the Muslim population in the United Kingdom – feel confronted by a world that objectifies and stereotypes them as anti-social or troublemakers who do not contribute to a productive society. In recent years, these youth have felt the need to rise up in response to these misjudgements and make their voices heard through engagement with others.
They do not belong to British society because it is a home of institutional racism. They do not belong to the Muslim community because the state schools have destroyed their native languages by making them anglicised. They are not well versed in standard English, therefore, majority of them leave schools with low grades. They do not know where they belong. They are unable to sit down with their parents and elders to have a fruitful conversations and discussions on any of their social and emotional problems. Young Muslims, like other youth, struggle with issues like low self-esteem, particularly given negative media attention surrounding their identity and faith community.
Muslim children need state funded Muslim schools with Muslim teachers as role models during their developmental periods. Muslim children must develop their cultural, linguistic and spiritual identities before they are exposed to wider world, otherwise, they would be lost in western jungle. There will never be an end to extremism and terrorism as long as Muslim children keep on attending British schooling with non-Muslim teachers.
Culture and race is always a factor in a child’s life. To deny the importance of race and culture is not only insulting to Muslim children, it also risks causing unnecessary confusion and distress. Cultural Identity is particularly significant for a child. Little attention is paid to the child’ cultural background. There is a social and economic pressure on bilingual Muslim children that they must speak English, adopt British values and ditch their religious beliefs, to assimilate into this country rather than maintain their cultural traditions and historical ties. Speaking English does not promote integration into British society and broadens opportunities. The result of such a policy is that British schooling is guilty of producing Muslim youths who are angry, frustrated and extremist. Majority of them leave schools with low grades. The number of Muslim youths is on the increase in prisons. Anti-social behaviour and drug addiction is on the increase. They find themselves cut off from their cultural heritage and are unable to enjoy the beauty of their literature and poetry. Thanks to British schooling.
Living together requires quite simply, an acceptance of the others, of the way in which (the other) is dressed.
Bilingual Muslim children have been in state schools for the last 50 years. They have been suffering from Paki-bashing. They have been unable to develop their confidence and self-esteem due to racism and bullying. This is one of the main reason why they have been unable to achieve good grades. They have been suffering from Identity Crises. They do not know where they belong. Muslim school with bilingual Muslim teachers is only the answer.
Education report by Birmingham Advisory Service recommends that school lessons should take into account cultural differences in order to improve pupils’ performance. It calls for teaching “the need for mutual respect and understanding”. Minority pupils are underachieving at school because the curriculum is racist. The study found lessons often failed to motivate or interest pupils because curriculum did not provide enough positive role models. The curriculum needs to be more balanced and less Eurocentric. Pupils grow up thinking there is no other playwright than Shakespeare. An ethnicity “Tsar” should be appointed to reform British schooling. Muslim schools performed best overall, although they constitute only a fraction of the country’s 7000 schools. Muslim schools do well because of their Islamic ethos and a focus on traditional discipline and teaching methods. They teach children what is right and what is wrong, because young children need structural guidance. Muslim school is responsible for the development of the whole child. Muslim schools give Muslim children “pride, identity and a sense of culture and languages.
There are hundreds of state schools where Muslim children are in majority. In my opinion, all such schools may be designated as Muslim community schools with bilingual Muslim teachers as role models. There is no place for a non-Muslim child or a teacher in a Muslim school.

Muslim children should then return to their Muslim homeland–or Saudia Arabia.
It sounds like they do not belong in western countries at all.
Please advocate for their emigration to whence they came.

Great answer

Great speech. As usual the West is responsible for all the atrocities of the poor muslim youth… I feel like throwing, really…
Now can you please explain the relationship between the British educational system and the terrorists born and brought up in Pakistan, or Argelia, or Afganistan?
Really, like throwing…
