Belgian police arrested several suspects in Brussels on Saturday during raids connected to the Paris attacks, including one who was in the French capital at the time of the carnage, Prime Minister Charles Michel said.

Michel told Belgian television that the arrests were linked to "suspect vehicles" identified during the investigation by French police into the attacks that murdered at least 129 people and were claimed by Islamic State (ISIS)

The possible link to the new Paris attacks raises fresh fears that Belgium is becoming a hotbed of Islamist terrorism, coming just months after connections emerged to the Charlie Hebdo attacks and August's attempted attack on an Amsterdam-Paris train.

"A case has immediately been opened linked to suspect vehicles in Paris, to check people linked to those vehicles. There have been several arrests," Michel told RTL television.

He separately told RTBF television: "It is believed or suspected that one of these people was in Paris last night."

Despite the fact that this all happened in France last night, when nobody in my community listens to the radio or TV or surfs the Internet, I heard word of it through the synagogue grape vine almost immediately.

I seem to remember that Belgium was tied to the Charlie Hebdo attack as well.

We have a friend from Belgium. He does not speak favorably of his countrymen when it comes to security.

It's time the French get their

out of their basements/dungeons.

They need a newer, more modern model to keep up with the volume of people who need a good beheading. Like with multiple head holes and a rotary blade. Then the heads can roll into the box one by one like the billiard balls in that mechanized sculpture they have at the Port Authority bus terminal in NYC.

Sounds like a plan to me.

I have a solution for all of this.

Belgium is nearly 10% Muslim. It may very well be the first country to fall to the sword in Europe, although Sweden is giving them a great run for the money.

It just BREAKS MY HEART to see today’s Europe end so quickly and violently, but I guess we’ll all have to accept it.

Far More than just two arrested....
