    He was a white Belgium national with serious mental issues who recently radicalized in prison ...

    I know the term Muslim fits your narrative but I think it's highly unlikely your man was a devoted supporter of Islam

    But if he needs to be a Muslim for your circle jerk to continue then I won't stop you

    Correct, well said.
    Mentally ill people act alone, I mean it's not like there is some sacred book that commands the believer to kill the kufar non believer.

    So what you're saying is that being a 'white Belgian' and Muslim are mutually exclusive? Sounds a bit racist to me.

    Think I'll defer to the Reuters version of events: https://www.reuters.com/article/belgium-shooting/belgium-under-scrutiny-over-release-of-radicalised-convict-before-attack-idUSL5N1T06DN
    • He converted to Islam while in detention, a Belgian security source told Reuters, and was under suspicion of radicalisation.
    • A Koran and prayer rug were found during a search of his cell, local media said.
    • A cleaning woman at the school who found herself “nose to face with the killer” told public broadcaster RTBF that he spared her because she was Muslim.
    • Herman had shouted “Allahu Akbar”, the Muslim affirmation of faith, during his attack and he had had contact with Islamist radicals in jail in 2016 and early 2017.
    • He also appeared to have followed online exhortations from Islamic State to stab police officers and use their service weapons to shoot others, prosecutors said.

    I would suggest that you consider the possibility that people are angry not out of any prejudice of this religion or that, but because European security agencies and the bureaucrats they report to seem to be failing to deal with the threat of radical Islamic terrorism.

    According to lawmaker George Dallemagne, who sits on several Belgian parliamentary security committees.
    “We have a tragic experience in Belgium, with people entering prison as petty criminals and leaving as terrorists,” he told Reuters.

    Prison authorities found a Quaran and a prayar mat in his cell.

    So...

    - Quaran
    - Prayar mat
    - "Radicalised"

    Do you think he was a Gideon or a Unitarian..... or a Muslim?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,586 ✭✭✭4068ac1elhodqr


    Similar thing again this afternoon, not too far away in Netherlands:
    i.e. Known individual, weilding axe at officers, shouting about a skygod etc.

    A K9 sent in was injured and later passed away. RIP K9.

    You hit the nail on the head ... Prison can make people more fukced up .. people radicalize to all kind of fringe groups in prison

    He did not convert to "Islam" ... He converted to an ISIS poster boy, maybe in another prison he would have walked out with swastikas tattooed on his face

    Killed by a 27 year old Syrian pharmacist who was ****ing about with some axes while yelling the all so well known slogan.
    2nd Syrian in a a month that needed to be shot in the leg to avoid worse, in the Netherlands.

    So he was praying to Jehovah then.
    Or maybe he was praying to Buddha.

    BTW I don't think ISIS poster boys are anything but followers of islam.
    You are of course free to find the jehovah witnesses, jews, catholics, buddhists, sikhs, mormons, lutherans, hindus, scientologists that are ISIS poster boys. :rolleyes:

    If "out" means out of the country back to sand of origin, i am ok with that.

    But i am pretty sure the Dutch mental health care thinks they can "fix" this guy and soon will be set up in a house in a working class area. Unsupervised of course when he deosnt want that.

    Christ almighty, what is wrong with you,
    When was the last time a swastika wearing skin head was in the news for chopping someone up or shooting multiples of people.
    This is not a tit for tat gang issue, it is not a level playing field.
    Your an apologists of the highest order,
    Its not nazis against isis, its muslim extremists against me, you, everyone.
    People like you keep going on about ****ing Nazis, where are these evil nazis, iv looked everywhere, even under me bed,
    Dont get me wrong, im fully aware that there are neo nazi types out there, but for the most part they keep to themselves and are not sitting around thinking up plans to murder innocent people,
    Do you really think there are neo nazi types out there coming up with plans to kill innocent children with bombs or machetes,

    There is nothing wrong with me

    I agreed that you can radicalize in prison, and that it can take many forms all depending the situation and I gave an example ... Prison has a tendency to make people worse

    Not my fault you are unable to understand context

    Can you give me 1 example as to how I am being a apologist ?

    An oxymoron is a contradiction of terms. OK. You've taken that in? Should I explain again? CONTRADICTION OF TERMS.

    You asked me "When have normal law abiding (bolded by me) Muslims did these things you mentioned?"

    The things i'd mentioned were "shooting cops/driving over people/suicide bombing"


    If someone is shooting cops, driving over people and suicide bombing, they are, BY DEFINITION, not LAW ABIDING therefore its an OXYMORON (a contradiction of terms).

    Its literally basic English, no back peddling required.

    No you bolded the whole sentence

    I asked you When normal law abiding Muslims are on a a rampage shooting cops/driving over people/suicide bombing in Europe

    An Oxymoron is a phrase that does not seem to make any logical sense therefore To you a law abiding Muslim doesn't seem to make any logical sense

    the mistake you made is that all Muslims have to go on a a rampage shooting cops/driving over people/suicide bombing in Europe in your Oxymoron statement for it to work

    A few examples

    Clearly confused
    Act naturally
    Painfully beautiful
    Deafening silence
    Pretty ugly
    Pretty fierce
    Pretty cruel
    Definitely maybe

    and you added law abiding Muslim to that list

    Get it ?

    make logical sense?? Or are they oxymorons??

    This is the last time i'll be replying on this. I know you are trying to drag the thread so far off course that it's shut down, its a well known tactic.

    Now, back to Liege

    "He was a white Belgium national with serious mental issues who recently radicalized in prison ..."

    any source that states he had mental health issues, like you have claimed?? Or have you made that up?

    He is listed on his psychological profile as "unstable". This wasn't a normal guy off the street, he was a violent offender in prison since around 2002 whose first act was to murder an ex inmate (prior to killing the police officers) Was he all there? debatable. Was he radicalised in some form whilst in prison? looks quite possible

    You can simply answer the question by looking at the definition of mental health then look at what he did for the past 15 years

    Its not that difficult

    Where is his psychological profile? I wouldn’t mind a read of it.
