The West is too stupid to survive.
Same thing happened to the Belgians in World Wars 1 and 2.
Obola’s NATO, yessirree.
Same happened with the Belgian UN Peacekeepers in Rwanda.
There were several times that Belgians accquited themselves bravely in 1914, but logistics were against them.
In the space of just the allowed portion of the article, the author hits everything that any thinking and observant person has seen for years. The bit about no ammo issued for guard duty even under terror threat goes back to my time in West Germany in the late 70s and the Red Brigade’s random bombings. I’m sure those older than I can cite other instances. The worst, of course, was Beirut, Lebanon, and the Marine barracks. It was the largest strike against the Gipper’s time as President, IMO.
This rabbi doesn’t understand... GUNS AND BULLETS KILL PEOPLE!! What was he thinking? We can’t have that!
I knew someone who trained and made sure to carry the LAW rocket, which he stuffed with candy bars.
My FIL had to send a Marine into battle in Korea without a rifle. He told him to get one during the fighting. Never did know what happened.

Well, that doesn’t mean they didn’t have ammunition when they were guarding people besides Jews....
Ted Cruz is not up to the Job, everyone knew the Belgian Army is a paper tiger who won't fight
Three most useless things in the world:
Limp penis.
Honest lawyer.
Empty weapon.
The Marine guards at the barracks in Beirut were manning unloaded .50 cal. machine guns. It was doubly disgusting as a .50 could have stopped the explosive laden truck.
I loved Reagan but in the end, he bears responsibility.
Remember the bombing of the USS Cole off of Aden, Yemen?
It will seem unbelievable, but the instinct of the US captain was SO strong that AFTER the blast when the men scrambled topside to deter follow-up attacks, ammunition EVEN THEN was forbade them.
The ammunition WAS available, and order was given to NOT distribute it to deck gunners.
AND:
The Marines at the gates in Lebanon also did not have ammo, when a suicide truck drove in and blew the place sky-high.
After 9/11 the National Guard was reported too that they never had ammo in their weapons.
