[IsraelTimes] Belgian police arrested a Moslem man who asked passersby on a Brussels street if they were Jewish while holding a knife and shouting about Allah.No one was hurt in the incident last week in Koekelberg, a northwestern neighborhood of the Belgian capital.
Police subdued the man in the neighboring district of Sint-Jans-Molenbeek following an hourlong search, the news site HLN reported Friday. His name was not disclosed.
The suspect is not considered a terrorist, a front man for the Brussels Prosecutor’s Office told HLN, though he is believed to have committed attempted murder "with connection to his religious or philosophical convictions."
| It clearly only counts as terrorism if the miscreant is a fully paid up member of a listed jihadi group like Al Qaeda or ISIS. Hizb-ut-Tahrir, Hamas, and Hizb’allah don’t count because they claim to be political rather than waging war. |
