Police have been conducting a manhunt for hours now in Limburg, searching for a heavily armed man who made threats against virologist Marc Van Ranst.

The suspect is a professional soldier from the barracks of Peutie, said to be armed with a rocket launcher, a machine gun and an ordinary pistol.

The manhunt started earlier in the day in Leopoldsburg, but has since been extended northwards in the province. Van Ranst and his family have been taken to an undisclosed safe location until the man is taken into police custody.

“That person has apparently moved around,” Erik Cenens of the police told Radio 2 this afternoon.

“[He was] first in the Beringen region and then further north towards Pelt, the Netherlands and Maasland. We are trying to locate the man as exactly as possible to be able to arrest him.”

Must have been a “gun show loophole”

No explanation of why he endangered a ‘virologist’.

Crazy people all over the world...

I don’t think so...

“His Facebook profile name refers to the “Siegrune,” the runic symbol used by the SS during World War II, and he was already under surveillance by the military intelligence service ADIV due to his anti-migration views.”

The pistol is indeed unremarkable and quite plain.

“...virologist Marc Van Ranst”

Probably got the bounty on him by saying something like “Ivermectin just may work”.

At least it’s just an “ordinary” pistol.

Marc Van Ranst is a PR guy for pandemics. He went around lecturing about how he was able to implement "one message, one voice" communications on behalf of Belgium during the H1N1 pandemic.

[ransomnote: I believe that was the first 'plandemic' effort enacted by the Gates/Soros/Faucist 'elites'.]

He talks about manipulating the public's perception. That it's important to mention people will die from it. He cites the example of using Britain's estimates and adjusting them to Belgium's population size and said it's important to talk about death so people will stop and pay attention. And then he says that in reality, that number of deaths is the same for every year (i.e., flu deaths) and the audience laughs but he said it's necessary to prepare the field, so to speak.

At the link - the person posting the vid to vimeo said, "See, he just admitted it. Where do you think the flu numbers went this year?"

I think I understand the point he is making:
