Brussels attacks: Europe is acting as a 'welcome sign' to terrorists, warns Lord Howard
The Telegraph ^ | 03-22-2016 | Christopher Hope

Europe is acting as a “welcome sign” to terrorists, Lord Howard, the former Tory leader, warned on Tuesday night, as leaders fought calls to scrap Schengen in the aftermath of the Brussels attacks.

David Cameron said it was “inappropriate at this moment” to link the Brussels terror attacks to Europe’s open borders and said that Britain should instead be “expressing sympathy” with Belgium.

However, in a speech on Tuesday night to the Politeia think tank in London, which was written before the Belgium attacks, Lord Howard said: “The European Union, in its current form, is a flawed and failing project which is making many of its inhabitants poorer than they should or need be and is failing to keep its people safe.

As a Cruzer, I admire Trump saying he agrees 100% with Cruz directing cops and feds into Muzzy areas to weed them out.

Plus, I agree with Trump saying I would go after the families and friends. Deport them all to the cesspools they’ve all come from.

“This latest attack only strengthens our resolve to defend the European values and tolerance from the attacks of the intolerant,” it said. “We will be united and firm in the fight against hatred, violent extremism and terrorism.”

By now anyone with half a brain knows that this is codespeak for "we will oppress our own people, and give the terrorists free rein."

Expressing sympathy does nothing at all. More useless symbolism from Europe. Islam is laughing at you, then once they stop laughing they will kill you.

True but when they write the post mortem on Europe it will say, “Europe died as a result of addiction to leisure. They were willing to tolerate any indignity as long as the vacation days kept coming”

Yup, that was my interpretation as well. The Government leaders need to get flushed. On both sides of the Atlantic.

What you subsidize you get more of.

Taxing the hell out of real Brits, Germans, Swedes, etc, etc, etc to pay exhorbitant bennies so that the muzzie FSA can lay about and plot the overthrow of Europe is no way to proceed.

“We must stand together to do everything we can to stop them and to make sure that although they attack our way of life and they attack us because of who we are, we will never let them win,” Mr Cameron said.

Um...Dave? If you let them kill you, you're letting them win. And if you don't take action, you're letting them kill you. So how about cutting the PC crap and telling us what that action is going to be, besides wringing your hands and telling the world how noble you are?

**David Cameron said it was “inappropriate at this moment”**

I wonder who the first idiot was who said “We should bring all the Syrian refugees to Europe. In fact, why don’t we just open our doors to all muslims.”

Jonathan Gruber was right, the “stupidity of the voter” is what puts Idiots in charge of most countries in Europe and in America.

The responses offered thus far...drape in Belgium flag

Yeah, that's the ticket ...shining colored light on whatever


AND ...there is always the value of cueing James Taylor for an encore...
