Belgium: Three bus troublemakers held in custody (immigrants beating up policeofficer)
Expatica ^ | April 03 2008
Posted on 04/03/2008 3:06:29 PM PDT by knighthawk
A 62-year-old policeman was trying to stop the fight between the youths and other passengers where he received heavy blows to his head, stomach and neck.
ANTWERP - Following the bus incident in Antwerp on Tuesday where a 62-year-old policeman was badly injured, three young suspects have been taken in.
The incident, which took place on Tuesday, saw a group of young migrants got into an argument with the couple sitting next to them on the bus. A fight ensued and the bus driver and one of the other passengers, a plain clothes policeman, came to their rescue.
In doing so, the policeman received heavy blows to the stomach, the head and the neck. When the bus driver and the policeman finally succeeded in throwing the troublemakers off the bus, the latter received further blows from a group of youngsters standing at the bus stop.
The victim managed to get on the bus again but fell unconscious shortly after that. The man was then rushed to hospital where his condition is said to be critical if not life-threatening.
Two minors were taken in for questioning just after the attack, a third one was taken in yesterday following a tip-off. All three of them have made partial confessions but said the victim had exaggerated the events.
Two of the suspects, aged 14 and 16, have been referred to the juvenile detention centres in Mol and Everberg. They are said to be from the Former Republic of Yugoslavia.
Drivers keep their cool
Meanwhile, the public transport company’s drivers unions have reacted calmly to the events.
Yesterday, an analysis of the events by the unions and De Lijn management showed that the emergency procedures had been followed by the book and that the police intervention had been a quick one.
In a reaction, Flemish mobility minister Kathleen Van Brempt strongly condemned Tuesday’s incident. Van Brempt referred to De Lijn’s safety plan that is in full progress and includes measures to fight aggression.
“In order for this plan to work, it really is of vital importance that the police, schools and the Ministry of Justice work closely together,” Van Brempt pointed out. “And in this case, they did.”
By mid July, the safety plan will be fully up and running and it will also receive a first assessment.

The Left’s Mischaracterization of Israel
By Aaron Velasquez, Right Side News
The American right loves Israel. We love Israel because Israel is us. Israel has McDonalds, night clubs, a middle class, semiconductor plants, and nuclear weapons. The left hates Israel for exactly these same things. Some liberals go one better and equate Israel with Nazi Germany, with Palestinians acting the part of the Jews. As bizarre as this seems to me, it plays well in the emotionally-driven finger-pointing crowd.
Israel is rich, stable and secure, and Palestine is poor and in turmoil. The fallacy is the idea that Israel’s success caused the poverty of the Palestinians. People looking for “root causes” of violence often stop at poverty, and assume that the nearest rich people are to blame. Mexico is poor and backward compared to the United States, but nobody is saying that the United States made Mexico that way. The United States even took some of Mexico into herself and made more states. I live in one of them. However, there is no international outcry for reparations. There are no Mexican suicide bombers blowing themselves up in Dallas or Albuquerque.
Israel is a strong industrial society with a functioning military, a good educational system, infrastructure, and an intellectually high-functioning citizenry. The Palestinians are weak in all of these areas. In the liberal media and academia, this discrepancy is made into a causal relationship. That is, the Palestinians are poor and backward because the Israelis made them that way. It would be as if the Israelis marched into a developed, first-world Palestine in 1948 and displaced its high-functioning populace from the controls of its well-oiled European-style machine.
The myth then tells how the poor Palestinians were herded into the ghettos of the West Bank and Gaza and forced to live as animals. Any defensive use of Israel’s military is fuel for the myth of an Israeli ‘genocide’ against the Palestinians, which completes the picture of Israelis as Nazis.
You may remember the hysterical NPR broadcasts of the last decade describing ‘massacres’ of innocents in Palestinian areas. Never mind the Israeli military was pursuing the enemy through those areas, or that the enemy chose to hide behind civilians. Not widely reported, but interesting and appalling were the documented cases of Palestinian terrorists dragging animal carcasses into the battle zones to make the smell worse when the sympathetic UN “observers” came around to inspect the “massacre” sites.
Palestine was poor and backward for millennia before the first wave of Zionists came in 1882. It was poor and backward when the state of Israel was created by international decree in 1948. It wasn’t until after substantial numbers of European Jews settled there that a modern state appeared. The Middle East is largely poor and backward even today, with the notable exception of Israel. It follows that the Zionists must have taken a poor and backward place and created a thriving industrial country.
How did they do it, if they didn’t steal it? Zionist immigrants to the newly formed Israel were largely drawn from Europe and were accustomed to a high standard of living, functioning government, infrastructure, and a fairly open society. None of those things existed in the area in 1948, so the Israelis had to do the work to create the land they wanted.
Could the Palestinians have done the same in Gaza and the West Bank? One would hope so, but experience demonstrates the Palestinians are not yet capable of this. Certainly, the Palestinians are intelligent people, but they have not chosen to use their physical and intellectual resources to the same ends as the Israelis. To the contrary, when they have been given Israeli-held areas, they have ripped up trees, torn down greenhouses and destroyed infrastructure. Why this is the case is a subject for another column.

British Muslims ‘planned to kill thousands by bombing SEVEN transatlantic airliners in one go’
This is why you can’t carry your latte onto the plane anymore.
“It would have caused a civilian death toll on an ‘almost unprecedented scale’ and a ‘global impact’.” And they were ready to do it in the name of Islam — yet peaceful Muslims have made no large-scale attempt to disabuse such Muslims of this theology that the peaceful ones say they reject, and all too many law enforcement and government continue to ignore or downplay the Islamic aspect of their motivation, central as it is, as irrelevant.
From the Daily Mail (thanks to all who sent this in):
A British terror gang plotted to use liquid explosives to blow up transatlantic passenger jets in mid-flight, a court heard today.
Eight men planned to smuggle bombs disguised as soft drinks on to flights from Heathrow to the United States and Canada and detonate them on board, Woolwich crown court was told.
It would have caused a civilian death toll on an “almost unprecedented scale” and a “global impact”.
The gang allegedly targeted seven flights operated by Air Canada, United Airlines and American Airlines. [...]
Peter Wright QC, prosecuting, said they had planned, “all in the name of Islam”, to carry out a “series of coordinated and deadly explosions” and were “indifferent to the carnage” that would have been caused. [...]
“At the very least” seven planes would have been targeted, Mr Wright said.
The jury heard that the gang planned to smuggle components of the homemade bombs on to the flights as “innocuous hand luggage”.
The court heard the bombers intended to use hydrogen peroxide and mix it with a product called Tang, used in soft drinks, to turn it into an explosive.
They intended to carry it on board disguised as 500ml bottles of Oasis or Lucozade by using food dye to recreate the drinks’ distinctive colour.
The detonator would have been disguised as AA 1.5 batteries. The contents of the batteries would have been removed and an electric element such as a lightbulb or wiring would have been inserted.
A disposable camera would have provided a power source.
“These items would have the capability of being detonated with devastating consequences,” said Mr Wright....

Troops Kill Suspected Terrorists, Capture Others in Iraq
American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, April 3, 2008 – Coalition and Iraqi forces killed seven suspected terrorists, detained 10 others and seized weapons and explosives in Iraq the past three days, military officials said.
During operations today:
— Troops detained a suspected Iranian-backed “special groups” criminal and two other suspects early this morning in the Hillah area south of Baghdad. The targeted suspect allegedly had planned to assassinate Hillah police leaders. He also is suspected of providing special groups cells with $100,000 and operational intelligence, officials said.
— Ground forces captured a suspect west of Qayyarah who allegedly is tied to al Qaeda in Iraq leaders and their smuggling network. Coalition forces identified the individual based on intelligence gathered during a March 30 operation. Troops detained one additional suspect.
— Coalition forces in Mosul captured two suspects who are believed to be linked to a senior figure in the al Qaeda in Iraq network.
In Iraq operations yesterday:
— Coalition troops east of Samarra stopped a truck in which a suspected al Qaeda in Iraq associate was traveling with three other individuals. When two passengers reached for weapons in the back of the vehicle, coalition forces perceived hostile intent and engaged the men, killing all four.
— Coalition aircraft conducted a precision strike on a house in Basra, killing two criminals. Coalition forces are unaware of any civilians killed in the strike; they are currently investigating the matter further, military officials said.
— Multinational Division Baghdad soldiers engaged and killed a man planting a roadside bomb in northeastern Baghdad. Military officials said another suspected emplacer and a local woman being used as a human shield also were wounded in the incident; officials extended their sympathies to the victim and her family.
— Troops captured a wanted individual during operations in Mosul. The suspect is believed to be a senior figure in the al Qaeda in Iraq network and tied to several senior terrorist leaders. Coalition forces nabbed one additional suspect.
— A local Iraqi led a unit of Multinational Division Center soldiers to a key suspect in Salman Pak, where troops detained the individual. The suspect was No. 2 on Company A, 1st Battalion, 15th Infantry Regiment’s list of suspected criminals and No. 4 on Multinational Division Center’s list.
— Iraqi army and Multinational Division Center soldiers recovered five weapons caches in Kutimiyah. The caches contained 45 rocket-propelled grenades, a .50-caliber machine gun with 500 rounds of ammunition, dozens of fuses, an anti-personnel mine, two 81 mm mortar tubes, a machine gun and various ammunition.
— Multinational Division Baghdad soldiers seized a munitions cache while patrolling the New Baghdad area of the Iraqi capital. The cache contained armor-piercing explosively formed penetrators, rocket-propelled grenades, RPG launchers and sticks of RPG propellant.
In Mahmudiyah on April 1, a tip from an Iraqi citizen led Iraqi Army soldiers to a local weapons cache. The cache contained two explosively formed projectiles, four rocket-propelled grenades, a 60 mm mortar tube and mortar round, and small-arms ammunition.

Enemy Attacks Give Coalition Opportunities, General Says
By Sgt. Sara Moore, USA
American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, April 3, 2008 – The recent increase in attacks by Shiia extremists in Iraq gave coalition forces in the center of the country opportunities to target extremist cells and degrade their capabilities, the U.S. general in charge of operations in the area said today.
From March 25 to 30, Shiia extremists in the Multinational Division Center area of operations stepped up attacks in conjunction with a spike in violence in Basra and southern Baghdad, Army Maj. Gen. Rick Lynch, the division’s commander, told reporters in Baghdad. That violence flared after Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki ordered Iraqi forces to clamp down on illegal militias, criminals and thugs in Basra. Shiia cleric Muqtada al-Sadr’s Jaysh al-Mahdi organization contested the Iraqi security forces, and fighting spread north to Baghdad and other Shiia cities in the south.
In the Multinational Division Center area, there were some 78 attacks by Shiia extremists during the six-day period, Lynch said. These attacks targeted coalition forces, Iraqi security forces and Iraqi civilians, and included the use of improvised explosive devices, armor-piercing explosively formed penetrators, rocket-propelled grenades and small-arms fire, he said. One U.S. soldier, 17 Iraqi security forces members and five civilians were killed in the attacks, and many more were wounded.
While these attacks did cause casualties, they also brought a lot of the Shiia extremists out of hiding and gave the coalition and Iraqi forces an opportunity to target them, Lynch said. Division leaders previously had estimated that about 600 Shiia extremists were in their area, making up about 10 so-called “special groups.” The increased attacks allowed the coalition to more easily target them, and during the six-day period, coalition and Iraqi forces captured four high-value individuals, killed 69 extremists, wounded five, and detained 537 suspects, he said. The suspects were questioned, and 230 are still in detention.
“The enemy needed his leaders to conduct operations; we took some of those away,” Lynch said. “The enemy needed his ‘led,’ his soldiers if you will, and many of those are now currently detained.”
The combined forces also found 18 weapons caches that contained various types of ammunition, bombs and other weapons, Lynch said.
“We experienced a tactical and an operational opportunity to take the fight to the Shiia extremists,” Lynch said of the six-day period of increased violence.
Since March 30, attacks in the Multinational Division Center area have gone back to their normal levels, with just one attack occurring yesterday and none the day before, Lynch said. Since taking command of forces in the area 13 months ago, Lynch said, he’s seen a significant decrease in violence and an increased focus on rebuilding Iraqi society.
Lynch’s soldiers occupy 57 different patrol bases throughout the area with Iraqi security forces, and that presence has helped build trust with the locals, the general said.
“What we have found is the local population, as a result of seeing the patrol base, they come forward and ask two questions,” he said. “The first question is, ‘Are you staying?’ and when the local population is convinced we’re going to stay, the next question is, ‘How can we help?’”
About 36,000 concerned local citizens are helping to secure their neighborhoods in “Sons of Iraq” security groups in the division’s area, Lynch said. And as the violence has decreased, the people have focused more on improving their quality of life, he added.
“Now, when I go to patrol bases … I immediately leave the patrol base and go visit with the population, talk to the people,” he said. “The conversation now has changed. It’s no longer about security; it’s about jobs. It’s about capacity; it’s about the economy; it’s about local governments.”
