Belgium Fears Nuclear Plants Are Vulnerable, Guard Murdered; Security Pass Stolen

BRUSSELS — As a dragnet aimed at Islamic State operatives spiraled across Brussels and into at least five European countries on Friday, the authorities were also focusing on a narrower but increasingly alarming threat: the vulnerability of Belgium’s nuclear installations.

The investigation into this week’s deadly attacks in Brussels has prompted worries that the Islamic State is seeking to attack, infiltrate or sabotage nuclear installations or obtain nuclear or radioactive material. This is especially worrying in a country with a history of security lapses at its nuclear facilities, a weak intelligence apparatus and a deeply rooted terrorist network.

On Friday, the authorities stripped security badges from several workers at one of two plants where all nonessential employees had been sent home hours after the attacks at the Brussels airport and one of the city’s busiest subway stations three days earlier. Video footage of a top official at another Belgian nuclear facility was discovered last year in the apartment of a suspected militant linked to the extremists who unleashed the horror in Paris in November.

Obama go dance somewhere and leave this mess to the adults...

Where are these "adults" of which you speak?

[DuncanWaring]

That's a very good question.

Certainly not here:

[Fitzy_888]

The nuclear power plant sent all nonessential personnel home.

TRANSLATION: It wouldn’t have been politically correct to suspend Achmed.

[MarMema]

This is exactly why we need a wall and strong border control.

How the hell could the security be so lax there

[Mr Apple]

worries that the Islamic State is seeking to attack, infiltrate or sabotage nuclear installations or obtain nuclear or radioactive material.

Yet, our Mullah obama still plans to let in 170,000 islamin muslims.

[Nuc 1.1]

Sabatoge is possible though anything significantly damaging is unlikely. IMHO removing significant quantities of highly radioactive material is not possible.

[Gaffer]

If the Belgian Military and police force has not been dispatched to EVERY nuclear facility in the country, then the person of in control of the decision is a closet effing Muslim.

EVERY employee, contractor or possible visitor to these places should be given a full-scope lie detector examination and no new and unfamiliar entries should be banned no matter what the excuse.

Lock the damned thing down - no exceptions.

[Nuc 1.1]

I doubt it was lax. Rather I suspect it is political interference that causes thes problems.

[Leaning Right]

Belgian officials have since stated that the guard’s murder had nothing to do with terrorism (I read that on another site).

So we don't just have incompetent officials here. We have incompetent officials who are bad liars.

[Leaning Right]

IMHO removing significant quantities of highly radioactive material is not possible.

Suppose the goal is not to remove the material, but to simply release it (like with Three Mile island)?

[deadrock]

Liberals will ensure they get all the tools they need to destroy Europe.

While I wouldn’t think this would be the case in Belgium, at Fukashima they stored the spent fuel (still cooking) in above ground tanks and not just above ground, but elevated tanks. An idea so stupid it could only be the result of arrogance. Rupture the tank and there is no way to contain the coolant. Holes in the ground work, as useful Today as 5,000 years ago.

There are no civilized moozlums. They are destroyers and subjugators.

Your “good” moozlums are biding their time until they murder you and your family.
Don’t be naive.

What is the difference between a Muslim “extremist” and a “moderate” Muslim?

The Muslim extremist wants to kill you while the “moderate” Muslim wants the “extremist” Muslim to kill you...

We need interior enforcement. It doesn’t matter if they eventually build a wall if none are deported when they are discovered.

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

Profile, ban and deport, that is the only way they are ever going to prevent more Obama sanctioned Islamo-Nazi attacks on innocent civilians which evidently brings Obama great joy seeing how he was celebrating in his communist utopia Cuba afterwards.

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

Trump has said that if Obama brings in those 170,000, if he is elected he’s going to deport them. LOL! I believe him too,

[BlackAdderess]

...but, oh yes, we must give workers from the developing world all the best jobs because they will be eternally grateful and will take the money and know-how back to their home countries to selflessly perform economic miracles. No holes in this particular theory, right?!
