Nearly 275 Belgians are fighting inside Syria and Iraq: report
2018-10-18
[AlMasdar] Approximately 275 Belgians are currently fighting inside both Syria and Iraq, the Belgian Interior Ministry claimed in a new report.

According to the Belgian Interior Ministry, there are no citizens that are currently traveling to either Syria or Iraq in order to join the so-called "Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
Furthermore, at least 85 people, including 22 women, were prevented by the Belgian authorities from traveling to either country over the last year, the FTF report said.

"There are also serious indications that 117 other persons residing in Belgium had the intention of leaving for a jihadist conflict zone," the Office stated.

But a wholly Mohammedan show!"
