Brothers who work together in the name of terror. Why so many?

When authorities identified two of the Brussels bombers as Brahim and Khalid El Bakraoui, it underscored what’s become a strangely familiar pattern – brothers working together in the name of terrorism.

The Belgian-born men – both believed to have died in Tuesday’s deadly bombings – are the fourth set of brothers who allegedly worked together in some of the most recent and chilling attacks.

Less than a week ago, the most wanted suspect in November’s Paris attacks was arrested in a shootout with police in the Belgian capital. Salah Abdeslam was considered a suspect after his older brother, Brahim, blew himself up at a bar as part of a series of coordinated attacks that killed 130 people.

Said and Cherif Kouachi, the sons of Algerian immigrants, were identified as being responsible for the Charlie Hebdo massacre in Paris in January 2015 that left 12 people dead.

Lets see maybe it is their Islamic ideology, death to infadels and all that stuff that thrills siblings from the tops of their heads to the tips of their toes.

Family Values.

Well, one's closest relatives can have tremendous influence -- preservation of "tribe" is more important than one's own life.

If and when we find out the answer, will we then be able to count on them to at least wipe clean their knives before they cut the next person’s throat?

We cannot afford this kind of ephemeral nuanced blather in this struggle.

"Brothers who work together in the name of terror. Why so many?"

Could it be because they're both from the same inbred family that blames every one else for their own perfectly understandable failures in life? The Muslim cult is all about destroying individuality and the concept that you are responsible for your own failures. Introspection is anathema to this ideology.

When your mom has ten kids and most are boys (after drowning the girls) you wind up with a lot of brothers.

Yes, just ask the Shia and the Sunnis. Both as ancient as they are bloodied by wars.

It's a macho, tribal, facial hair, clan and Arabic thing to do. What could be better than getting Achmad, Walid, Ibrahim and Saeb all together for a great Ramadan in the sky feast? Each one becomes a “Shahid” or martyr. Each one becomes a proud legend in his family. Each one bequeaths a crown of glory to his family and each one gets 72 virgins. Not bad for a day's work.

Arabs and Muslims know how to do two things really, really well:

1) Kill
2) Be killed

So by blowing yourself (and others) up, you hit 2 birds with one stone...glorious Jihad.

When the West decides to wake up and hold these scum (and their families, and their communities) responsible, things may improve. For so as long as we live in denial, wrapped in political correctness, we will die at the hands of these slugs...

What’s her name may have a point about the job thing. If these people would have to work for a living, they would not have time to jinn up so much mayhem. None seem to be gainfully employed. All are sucking up some kind of welfare. Maybe Trump will check the list of Muslim freeloaders.
