The news out of Brussels worsens by the hour. 

Lax security, a savage attack, shattering explosions after shouts of "Allahu Akbar..." 

And then dozens dead. 

The fact that the slaughter of innocents is becoming the new normal in Europe does not make this news from Belgium any less horrifying. 

And the current chaos does not obscure one central fact:

ISIS terror squads have attacked the de facto capital of the European Union, and they've done it by smuggling their ideology of death into the birthplace of Western civilization under the cover of uncontrolled mass immigration. 

I wish I could say we were surprised by this new horror. But in fact, we've been expecting -- and dreading -- this second shoe to fall. 

Soldiers of the jihad have left us yet another bloody calling card, reminding us that they seek the death of the West even as they fight for its territory. 

We are all Belgians today. 

Radical Islam is at war with Belgians, at war with infidels everywhere. 

What happened yesterday in Brussels was another campaign in the blitzkrieg of Islamofascism that the Freedom Center has been warning about and fighting against since 9/11. 

We write about this war every day on our websites and speak about it on the campuses, on the radio and on TV. 

Millions of people hear our warnings, but those in power in D.C. and in Europe remain willfully blind to this threat. Islam is the religion of peace, they keep telling us. Islamophobia, not Islamic terror, is the real threat. 

The bloodshed in Brussels yesterday shows clearly that these are the words of capitulationists who, knowingly or not, function as a fifth column for the jihad. 

Our hearts go out to the dead and wounded in Brussels. We pledge to honor them by continuing the fight against their murderers. 

The Freedom Center will continue to write and speak about the savage war -- a war of civilizations, although our leaders will not admit it -- that has been declared against the U.S. and Europe. 

We will never forget the simple equation that is the key to our survival: silence = death. 

I did not write this. I copy pasted it from an email I rechived frome  The Freedom Center, but I do agree with it.

They recruit in jails. 80% of terrorists are convicted criminals. Often they become religious only after a long life of crime. Some of them are "converted" only months before an attack. But most of them lived here a long time.

The big paradox here is they sometimes do it out of guilt. A bit like the typical crusader: you might have done everything wrong a God could condemn but you will be forgiven if you go wage a holy war.

The Associated Press reported on Wednesday, one day after the deadly Islamic terrorist attacks in Brussels, that the Islamic State militant group appears to be more organized and advanced than previously realized — specifically regarding the organization’s systematic targeting of destinations across Europe.

Days after suspected terrorist Salah Abdeslam was apprehended in connection with last year’s attacks in Paris, another complex series of explosions killed dozens and injured hundreds more in Belgium. AP sources indicate the deadly incident is likely the start of a devastating trend.

At least 400 militants have been trained by ISIS in recent months, preparing all the while to stage similarly destructive detonations in other highly populated European cities. French Senator Nathalie Goulet lamented that uncertainty about the size of this militant force makes fighting it exponentially

"There are  54 muslim countries and not one of them are taking any of these refugees. "
You mean apart from Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq, Egypt, Kuwait and many others?

I agree however to many rich gulf states do nothing.
