religion of peace...
Time to bulldoze all mosques and deport all non native born muzzies (or at least after our own muzzie in chief, leaves orifice. )
You are correct. Bulldoze mosques and deport muslims. Every civilized country should do this. Send them all back to the Middle East where they belong.
Will never happen with one of them in WH. It’s Obama’s fault.
What are the odds Muslim kooks are involved?
Again?
I’m guessing over 90% ....
Of these are muslims the blame is all on leftists who make excuses and pander to islamonazis and criminalize criticism of it.
Single actors ....just what ISIS wants to keep pressure on world govts...
Banish twenty Imans and their relatives to same, seize their Assets, level their
Mosques, build an church/synagogue on the lots/space..then publicized it.
If it happens again, double all the above.
Love the sentiment, but dynamite provides more heartwarming and entertaining viewing. And the films of Muslims packed on boats being taken back to their home countries with the native non-Muslim population cheering on the docks and in the streets would provide more entertainment.
Deport them to Antarctica or send them ALL to Dry Tortugas and declare it an independent country and blockade it- no egress permitted.
Dynamite follow by cleanup of rubble with bulldozers
4 gunman? Well that is not some crazy lone wolf, now is it.
Time to be on high alert and very aware of one’s surroundings. This is going into the last big week of Christmas Holiday stuff.
ISIS showing the world...you’re not safe anywhere.
GHENT, Belgium, Dec 15 (Reuters) - Belgian armed police stormed an apartment in the western city of Ghent on Monday to end a siege after reports that gunmen had taken a hostage there.
The victim was safe and well and three other men had been detained, a spokeswoman for state prosecutors said.
“Three men have been taken away though there were no weapons found. The earlier reports were of four men with kalashnikovs,” she said. “...It’s not entirely clear whether someone was in fact taken hostage.”
Armed police in balaclavas emerged at about 1 p.m from the cordoned-off building in the Dampoort district.
“It’s over,” one police officer said.

‘UPDATE: A spokesperson for prosecutors in Ghent tells the AFP “There is no indication that this is linked to terrorism, the Islamic State or what is happening at the moment in Sydney.”’
Nothing to see here! They are just gunmen. That’s it. That’s all. You can go about your daily business now.
The Muslim population is most concentrated in Brussels (20% of the total population)6 with most other Muslims living in the industrial areas of the French-speaking south. The Brussels conurbation is home for more than 50 percent of the Moroccans. They can be also found in Antwerp, Liege, Hainaut, in the region of Charleroi and in Limburg. Half of the Turks have settled in Flanders, especially Antwerp, Ghent and Limburg. They live also in certain districts of Brussels (ex. Schaerbeek, Saint-Josse) and in the Walloon area of Belgium in the region of Hainaut and Liege (Bousetta 2003:8).
