Kalashnikovs in Brussels
02/22/2010 :: Following a shooting incident in Brussels last January, in which a Belgian police officer was seriously wounded by immigrant thugs using Kalashnikovs, the Belgian authorities have finally realized that what the Vlaams Belang has been saying for years is true: Belgium has lost control over Brussels, the capital of Belgium and the European Union.
Boroughs such as Sint-Joost, Schaarbeek, Molenbeek, Kuregem and Anderlecht, to the north and the west of the city centre, have become no go zones where the police are no longer welcome and do not dare to go. Policemen are being shot at with machine guns; local police headquarters have been burned down. Last January, a school in Kuregem announced that it was moving to a safer part of town.
Quick
There are over a quarter million immigrants in Brussels, which is 25% of the city’s entire population. Most of them are Muslims, but there are also ethnic criminal gangs of Africans and East Europeans. They control ever expanding areas of town. People who enter these neighbourhoods risk their lives, as a camera crew of the Dutch television experienced last February when they were assaulted by a group of young immigrants.
Meanwhile, the police have had enough. All the Flemish parties in Brussels, including the leftist Greens are asking for a restoration of law and order. Many doubt, however, whether the situation will improve because the French-speaking parties are downplaying the seriousness of the problem. The mayors of most of the Brussels boroughs are politicians of the Parti Socialiste (PS), the corrupt Walloon Socialist Party. These mayors depend on the votes of the immigrants. The latter were given Belgian citizenship, via the so-called “Quick Citizenship Act,” at the behest of the governing PS so that they could vote PS.
Deliberate
The victims of the PS policies are the ordinary indigenous inhabitants of Brussels who have been deliberately driven out of Brussels because many of them are Dutch-speaking Flemings. In 2001, Claude Eerdekens, the PS chairman of the Naturalisation Committee of the Belgian Parliament, declared that 98.8% of the naturalisation requests in Brussels were filed in French. “Our committee does more for the frenchification of Brussels than the Flemings can ever do to prevent it,” he boasted.
It is very clear who is responsible for the present situation. It is also clear that there is only one way out of this mess. The Vlaams Belang aims for Flemish independence with Brussels as the capital of Flanders. This will end the irresponsible attempts to deprive Brussels of its Dutch identity by driving the local people out and using immigrant thugs to achieve that goal.
