As a Belgian, this news hit very hard. Our (elected) government deployed military and police presence over the past month to ensure security. What a joke... Not that I didn't know it, but now it's certified : military in the streets is useless (and costly). They'd better help those who need it.
- jacquesm 11y agoI've pointed out long ago that any concentration of people is a terrorist target and that any attempt at pretending that we are some how 'safe' is a total illusion. Extremely annoying because the amount of security theater is only going up.
- emp_zealoth 11y agoI'm pretty sure you are wrong. Properly armed forces patrolling might have stopped the attack from being another machinegun bloodbath like in Paris. Sure,military can hardly help with bombs, but so far the attack had an order of magnitude smaller death count
