No word on motive yet. Round up the usual suspects.

It is still “bomdadan”. Could be something else though.

It was unclear, however, what lay behind the incident

LOL! It's Ramadama-ding-dong time again.

PS: The DailyMail reports the usual Allahu Akbar! shouting. Perhaps that helps.

Let’s just blame it on Islamophobia and forget it ever happened.

Reuters must have edited your linked article (2nd paragraph):

“La Libre Belgique newspaper quoted a police source as saying the gunman shouted Allahu Akbar — God is greatest in Arabic — and RTBF said investigators believed the attacker may well have had a terrorist motive. “

This is undoubtedly an issue where narrow-minded and racist Belgians misunderstood the longtime traditions of their wise visitor.

The brilliance of the euros is beyond dazzling. Nothing gets by them.

Belgian broadcaster RTBF said the gunman had only been released from prison on Monday. It said that he may have been radicalised while in jail.

“This man DOES NOT represent Islam.”
(old quote, not in story)

Besides the fact that this is obviously false, JUST WHO keeps saying it? Western leaders. How the hell would Western Leaders know who does and who does not represent Islam?

I'm surprised. Islam is a religion of peace. What are the odds that yet another terrorist attack would happen to be committed by a lone wolf from this peaceful culture?
