wow good find
The "young college educated professionals looking for a multicultural neighborhood to raise their kids". In the middle of a Muslim ghetto...
Holy Crap on a Cracker! I can't think of any thought process that more richly deserves being exterminated by 7th century barbarity.
>>> The debate is paralyzed by a paternalistic discourse in which radical Muslim youths are seen, above all, as victims of social and economic exclusion. They in turn internalize this frame of reference, of course, because it arouses sympathy and frees them from taking responsibility for their actions. <<<
Substitute Black or Hispanic for ‘radical Muslim’ and you have most American cities.
“Just like the guerrilla can hide in the jungle ...”
This lib also needs help in determining who’s the bad guy and who’s the innocent animal ...
Money quote: “But the most important factor is Belgium’s culture of denial. The country’s political debate has been dominated by a complacent progressive elite who firmly believes society can be designed and planned. The country’s political debate has been dominated by a complacent progressive elite who firmly believes society can be designed and planned.”
However, at the conclusion of the article, one comes away with the impression that the author is still a committed liberal who simply thinks his fellow liberals have made an error in their planning. No where does he see Islam for what it is - despite the pools of blood, despite being ripped off by his muslim landlord - instead just thinks there are a few bad guys that have mucked up his once perfect multicultural neighborhood for which he still has hope ...
When we moved West we fought the whole way.

Slowly, we woke up to reality... -—
It seems like a good mugging is the only way.
He is wrong. There is no undercurrent. It is all mainstream Islam.
“It is nearly impossible to explain to an outsider, but Belgium is a country of six governments, Brussels a city with 19 mayors. These many administrative posts are not filled with competent people. “ “The lack of a strong, central authority ...”
“But the most important factor is Belgium’s culture of denial. The country’s political debate has been dominated by a complacent progressive elite who firmly believes society can be designed and planned. Observers who point to unpleasant truths such as the high incidence of crime among Moroccan youth and violent tendencies in radical Islam are accused of being propagandists of the extreme-right, and are subsequently ignored and ostracized.”
“The former Socialist mayor Philippe Moureax, who governed Molenbeek from 1992 to 2012 as his private fiefdom, perfected this culture of denial and is to a large extent responsible for the current state of affairs in the neighborhood.”
A conservative is a liberal who’s been mugged by reality.
Eruos...always the whiners. They brought this on themselves. Ef em!
The problem and the solution are obvious. Belgium opened itself to people who did not want to be Belgians.
It should only allow immigrants who admire Belgium, and want to be Belgians.
Substitute the name of any other country, and you have the problem and solution again and again. Germany should only allow immigration from people who admire German culture and want to be German.
And they should only allow immigration in numbers that can be successfully integrated. And only from people who bring something valuable to the country.
Last paragraph of the article. The author still doesn't get it. They're all part of the problem.
This kind of thing can't possibly happen here in the good old USofA.

Sounds like some Progressives are beginning to progress in their thinking.
How many more terrorist attacks will it take?
