    Oh, they were probably the victims of racism from those meanie Belgium people, and the oppressive Belgium regime. Europe has such terrible social services.

    You know we invaded Iraq, so what else are these people supposed to do? Of course they are blowing people up. But fortunatly, only 31% of young British Muslims believe the attacks of 7/7 were justified. You see 69% of Muslims were against the bombings of 7/7, that proves Islam is a religion of peace!

    It's sad, but true. On the issues, I agree more with Bernie than Trump. But I'm afraid Bernie would be such a big pussy on terrorism. Bernie has yet to issue any statement on this latest attack, and his only statement on the one in Paris was "lets be careful not to paint Muslims with a broad stroke" etc.

    I think Europe and the US need to find all the clerics/sheiks that are preaching this stuff, grab them by the scruff of their neck and air drop them over Syria. We also should not allow immigrants into the country that are "radical" or prime to be radicalized. There are certain areas in the Middle East that really want to live under liberal ideals in a civilized society, and there are those who are very bigoted because of their culture and religion, and won't mix in well in a Western nation at all. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with not allowing those people in. Trump is the only one that'll say that and people went ape shit over it.

    Trump caught heat about 2 months ago for saying it was a hellhole. Never been to Belgium, but with the political climate in Europe, not surprising.

    Just a small taste of the migrant situation in Sweden...this is candy land really compared to what is really going on, but you can see the outright hostility and anti-social behavior when this crew goes into a migrant area for just a few minutes: liberals imagine they are being good humanitarians, being a refuge for those who are suffering, but there's the ideal and there's a darker side to reality.

    Yep, I've wanted to go see my cousin in Sweden for years, not so much these days hearing what's going on there.

    Something needs to be done about these radicals but it's hard to scare them. They don't value life, so what can you do to them?

    Trump wants total war on terrorists. Not sure how I can support that. That's some Jack Bauer shit right there.

    This war has gone on for centuries really... Yet the liberals sit there and deny its a major problem. They think understanding and a few participation trophies will fix it.

    It didn't fix it hundreds of years ago, it wont fix it now.

    Terrible tragedy. War on terror goes on. Folks sometimes feel isolated from these wars until it hits their safe zones...there just are no safe zones against this enemy. I feel for the families of those who lost their lives and the people of Belgium on this day. The world needs to collectively do some serious pest control against ISIS and this will prompt more of that if there's any good to be found in senseless bombing of innocent people.

    Limit the flow of mass immigration of refugees?

    Don't let muslims have their own neighborhoods where they essentially rule and are unchecked by police, maybe?

    Stop sucking Islam's dick on the daily?

    That is probably a little weak. Since most are in favor of Sharia Law, this will be a unsolvable problem since Sharia Law is not compatible with the US Constitution.

    "A majority (51%) agreed that ‘Muslims in America should have the choice of being governed according to sharia.’”"

    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/natha...atest-poll-on-american-muslims_b_7688204.html

    We can not assimilate a people that are committed to Sharia. There are 1.6 billion in the world and most of them want to see Sharia rule their country. Their population is growing
    about 50% faster than the rest of the populations.

    So ISIS supporters maybe far less in number, but that is hardly the issue. Don't worry about the "Radicals" that support ISIS, we are incompatible with those that would have Sharia.
    Some day soon, a military solution will take care of ISIS, but pressure to have Sharia will continue.
    Islam is not simply a religion. It is a way of life with it's own set of laws and morality.

    Being a Catholic is belonging to a religion, and you can take it or leave it. Not the same with being a Muslim under Sharia, you can not leave it, and if you are a Catholic or atheist (infidel)
    you are inferior under sharia.

    There is no Neighborhood for this way on this continent, would be my vote.

    I don't see how you can say or know this. It's your take, which is fine of course, but certainly it is not a fact. My take is that the vast majority probably do not want Sharia law. As your own previous post on Islam pointed out, most Muslims are not Koranic scholars and do not think that their religion is the same one as the fanatics believe it to be. Most Muslims, Jews, Christians are not orthodox to their religion, and Sharia is an ultra-orthodox view of Islam.
