I feel bad for the innocent Muslim people of Molenbeek. They don't deserve this.

How are people in Belgium reacting to the fact that their capital is basically out of order?
Also, what went wrong in Molenbeek?
>>51145809
>25% Muslims
you're optimistic
Heeeeeeeeeyyyyoooppp
>>51146313
>How are people in Belgium reacting to the fact that their capital is basically out of order?
Haven't heard much outside of the fact that a lot of money is being lost.
Other than that, judging by my FB feed, people seem to be a lot more upset with white, right-wing racists than with Muslim terrorists for some reason.
>Also, what went wrong in Molenbeek?
Brussels is made up of 19 different municipalities, each with lots of autonomy and their own police force and jurisdiction.
Molenbeek was ruled by a socialist mayor (Moureaux) who let tons of Muslims do whatever they wanted, because they voted for him.
A dude got shot in the back one day, and this mayor shrugged it off as an anecdote.
Lots of areas in Brussels have similar Muslim problems (Anderlecht, Sint-Joost, ..), and other Belgian cities too (Borgerhout in Antwerp), ...
From a more general point of view: Brussels used to be a majority Flemish city when my grandparents were young, but tons of Muslims from North Africa were brought in because they spoke French, to help turn Brussels into a French-speaking city.
And voilà.
>>51146719
>tons of Muslims from North Africa were brought in because they spoke French, to help turn Brussels into a French-speaking city
And also to help vote for the socialists.
>>51146313

>>51146719

why
>>51146856
Because that's where the REAL problem is, apparently.
Not the people killing because a book literally tells them to, but the white supremacists who disagree with said killings and ideology.
>>51145809
I heard it's all your fault because of your colonial heritage, in Northafrica and the Middle East....
oops
You never even have colonized them Muslims....lololololol
You should have at least massacred them in the past, now you have all the terror and non of the fun.
>>51146885
This depresses me. Is there hope of people changing their minds once things get worse?
>>51146719
I kinda get now why the Flemish want to fuck off from the rest of the country....
They should go through with it 2bh
>>51146983
We share the blame because we're white, even if Belgium never colonized any Muslim countries.
>>51146856
>why
Because people in Belgium are not allowed to speak their minds, or draw logical conclusions.. Especially not when they're politicians or journalists. They sometimes invite Flemings to Dutch talkshows to be the moderate voice or the Muslim advocate... There was a Belgian chap saying that in order to prevent attacks like the ones in Paris, the French government has to give more space to Muslims for them to be Muslim. (France's strict secularism means that head scarfs are banned in public schools and other public buildings)

I was in Brussels 2013 summer. I have never been to a more enriched city except maybe for the Hague. Burqas, negroes,Sand-African Americans, and no white people anywhere.

>>51147173
There was this German guy in my workplace who had lived in Finland for many decades... anyway he was old and he is now retired.
He told stories of going to Marseille on summer vacations in the 50's and was complaining now that he can't go back there because the city doesn't exist anymore.

Him and Abou Jahjah can sometimes take the correct side of the debate, surprisingly enough.
But whenever they take the wrong side (i.e. pro-islamic side), their arguments are extremely retarded and easy to demolish.
>>51147246
It's just horrible.
It's pretty much North Africa at this point and some neighborhoods there look legitimately 3rd world, not even exaggerating.

Well Brussels was picked as the EU capital because no one could get butthurt about it being in a shitty city in a non-country. It should get bombed to the ground anyway.
>>51147820
But Brussels is shared clay, no?
>>51147938
Its Dutch clay and has always been
>>51147938
Brussels is its own entity with its own regional government.
It depends hugely on money from Flanders though. Less than Wallonia, but still.
And it's also a French-speaking city by a large margin, so the croissants like to claim it as theirs. Which is why it's annoying for them that there's no geographical connection between Brussels and Wallonia.

Do a ctrl+f search for 25,5 (comma, not period)
"Brussels gewest" means "Brussels capital region", so all 19 municipalities that make up the Brussels metropolitan area.
The actual historic heart of Brussels (which is one of the 19 municipalities), where all the historic landmarks are, is actually 33.8% Muslim according to that same source.
>>51148308
Not gonna lie, this is kinda shocking....
Are Muslims more common in Wallonia or Flanders?
>>51148308
Damn, i feel sorry for you guys

I don't even want to see the numbers of 2015.
I read somewhere that 1/6 children don't even speak Dutch at home in Flanders.
>>51148377
basically the same
Wallonia 4%
Flanders 3,9%
>>51148377
It's about the same in Wallonia and Flanders: around 4%
They're really concentrated in Brussels because North Africans speak French, which helped turn Brussels from a majority Flemish city into a majority French city in a few decades.
>>51148308
>The actual historic heart of Brussels (which is one of the 19 municipalities), where all the historic landmarks are, is actually 33.8% Muslim according to that same source.
how does something like this happen
>>51148441
You should see the playgrounds at our schools...
>>51145809
Just read in the paper that children can't go to school there now due to the threat of terrorism and some services are also down for the same reason.
Is this true? How do the actual Belgians feel about this? This will inevitably be used as a reason to deny access to Muslim migrants in the near future, do you consider that a good or bad thing?
>>51148308
So what is it about Brussels in particular that muslims flock to instead of anywhere else?

You're an idiot.
It all began by the end of the 19th century. The flemish elite started to speak french because it was the language spoken in power circles (business and politics) all over Europe. Brussels being the capital of the fifth economical power, it spread gradually to politicians and the overall population.
>>51147117
It's so perfectly symbolic that the capital of the EU is a Muslim shithole.
>>51148626
I would think the Muslim population interfering with the ability to educate the children via threat of terrorism would DEFINITELY be reason enough to speak out against them at the very least. That's a pretty fucked up situation.
>>51148838
niggers speaking french didn't help though
>>51148838
All I said was North Africans were brought into Brussels by the masses, which HELPED turn Brussels into a majority French-speaking city.

It does say that about Molenbeek though.. So it seems like a relatively fair assumtion the rest of Brussels is comparable, no?
>La commune (95 000 habitants) vit coupée en deux. A l’ouest du chemin de fer, des quartiers résidentiels, aux immeubles sortis de terre dans les années 50 et 60.

It's very different from one neighbourhood to another. The article mentions that roughly half of Molenbeek is 80% morrocan.
It's nowhere near that figure in the other parts of Brussels.
>>51150149
You're right, I misread.
What it actually said was that the part of Molenbeek east of the train tracks is 80% Moroccan lol.
There are 125.962 Moroccans in Brussels, and only 35.877 Turks.
Out of about 250.000 Muslims.
So what's with this "half the Muslims came from Turkey" bullshit?

>>51152441
>Where is the meme?
The meme is, from what I understand from our local Moroccans anyway, is that Moroccans are either Berber, or Arab. Definitely not 100% Arab-Berber.. That would be 50-50 at best. Which automatically means the whole 'elite' bit is out of place, because the Moroccan elite is 100% Arab. They are indeed Francophone, but Berbers tend not to be.. Either they learn French as a second language if they're somewhat educated, or they speak Berbers... And if they speak Berbers, they're pretty far from the elite.
>My aunt was born in Morocco, studied in France, and married an American.
>Her family was quite wealthy back home, and both of her uncles were officers during the independence crisis: one a French colonel and another a Moroccan independence leader.
If I had to guess, I'd say she's Arab and not Berber.. Though I could be wrong. The Berbers that went to this country tend to be the underclass of society. Perhaps Berbers that were higher on the social ladder preferred to study in France.
>>51152291

Comparing the poverty rate of a capital city and a country is incredibly stupid. Gotta grant you that it's still often higher than other western european capital cities though.
>34% of the Brussels population is certifiably poor.
desu it's defined by earning less that 1080€ but not counting moonlighting, people that don't need to work and stuff like that.
You're pretty quick to draw a conclusion to extremely complex social issues from a single data, friend.
>Can you croissant any harder?
Nice escape. I guess you don't have any valid point to throw me, then.

>Comparing the poverty rate of a capital city and a country is incredibly stupid.
Tell that to IWEPS, the Walloon institute for statistics.
They're the ones making the direct comparison.
And it's not that far-fetched, Brussels is in many ways an autonomous region, unlike 99% of capital cities around the world.
>You're pretty quick to draw a conclusion to extremely complex social issues from a single data, friend.
The only "conclusion" I drew, was that Brussels insults itself, which it does.

>That has nothing to do with how institutions are organized but how urbanization is, and this is not autonomous in any way.
What in the world are you talking about?
>Wikipedia shows three different numbers with source for each one of them. 15% has the most.
Which language?
What article?
Where in the article?
>>51157065
The part of your sentence I quoted was
>The city's been a national punchline for years
Not
>and now the entire world is wondering wtf is going wrong there.
Please pay attention to my post before answering.

You think this pic >>51156745

>Kuifje
Flemish media, flemish community, same shit. I fail to see your point.
>>51157140
The point was that Brussels is now an international punchline.
>>51157284
>Flemish media, flemish community, same shit.
Hahahahaha.
Jesus christ, fuck off croissant.
>>51157298
Yeah, now it is, I can't deny that. You're still avoiding my answer to your post though. Before the Paris attack, it was exclusively a flemish thing to bash on Brussels.
>>51157353
Great answer, lad. Good work.
>>51157354
You said Brussels was a punchline "only for butthurt Flemings".
So answer my question: is the entire world now butthurt?
>>51157456
No, I said that as an answer to "The city's been a national punchline for years". I explicitely quoted that sentence.
>>51157394
Says the croissant who thinks the Flemish media and the Flemish community is the same shit.
>>51157456
>>51157394
>>51157354
I saw pictures of that town.
Then I realised I am old and some of our °problem° areas also look like this.
WHY.
>>51157515
Trust me, I have met quite a few Walloons who felt the same way about Brussels.
Is calling somebody a croissant an insult?
>>51157637
Well, similar to calling you a Burger and you calling me a Wurst.
>>51157612
Well, sure, it's impossible for all wallons to like Brussels. That's obvious.
>>51157637
Seems like it is for flemings. Kinda childish but well tb.h
>>51157637
It has been ever since this classic: >>51147820
>>51157720
"Fucking" french immigrants I guess.
>>51157718
>Kinda childish
Someone can't handle the banter.
>>51157668
>wurst
>not a kraut
>>51157862
What do I know about racist fighting-words?
Racism has been outlawed since the Purges in 1967, Piroggi-Man.
>>51157859
I don't think I've been crying when you called me croissant before in this thread so I think I kinda do tb.h
It's pretty shitty banter tho, as if I constantly called you stroopwafel. Gotta be more creative and original
>>51157956
Fuck off croissant.
>>51157934
Kraut is a timeless classic, pre-dating burger.
>Piroggi
I had to google it desu
>>51157956
Don't you think the flemish have a reson to dislike being a minority in their own country?
As well as paying for the state of affairs also.
>>51158160
You what
>in their own country?
I take it you're not familiar with the history of the country.
And they're a big majority in the country.
>>51158290
Well, brussels.
No , i don't know that much.
Besides your royal house being french.
Belgium is a rather new thing anyway, right?
I also know you bullied Luxembourg.
Uncool.
>>51157720
>>51157794
Dat "French invader" stereotype.
I guess the longer you spread a lie, the stronger it becomes a "truth".
>>51158386
Yep, sucks to be on the losing side I guess.
>Not that I would know about that one....
>>51158386
>francophones aren't moving to Flanders and refusing to learn Flemish
croissant pls
>>51158369
>I also know you bullied Luxembourg.
I'm still ashamed of that tb.h
>Besides your royal house being french.
Well, since the french were the ones that helped us gain our independence, it's not that surprising.
The royal family is making huge efforts to calm flemish people tho, their children are basically flemish.
>>51158369
>Besides your royal house being french.
They're actually German, their last name is "Von Saxen-Coburg".
>>51158160
>minority
Did you know that, in Brussels, flemish parties have a 50% representation in the local government despite being 15% in the population?
>>51158573
Apparently they are doing something right then :^)
>>51158555
>>51158490
Hey, I still like you, even if you are Waloons.
Belgians,Dutch and Luxembourger are the best neighbours one can wish for.
>Denmark is also pretty cool.
>>51144304
It's quite comfy.
We can't do shit, but it's warm inside and the happening is happening, so...
>>51158645
You're also based desu, Germany
>>51158462
>he cannot be Fleming and speak French.
>>51158741
do you live or know anyone in molenbeek?
how bad is it there?
>>51159212
No.
The TV tell me it's like pic related. I think they exaggerate.
>tfw your country would be as bad as France or Belgium if it weren't an island
Thank you, based English Channel.
Belgian arguments always remind me of pic.
>>51159212
See for yourself.

But the UK is worse than almost anywhere in Europe, Nigel...
>Millions_raped_by_Paki_pedophile_rings.jpg
>>51159212
I know someone there but he doesn't live in the bad neighbourhoods so nothing happens for him desu
>>51159432
This sort of thing happens in every western country, our police just happen to be on top of things.
>>51159375
Bradford, Blackburn, Birmingham, Slough, Leicester, Luton, Manchester and London are all among the cities with the highest Muslim rates in the EU though
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cities_in_the_European_Union_by_Muslim_population
>>51150174
We really haven't
>>51159521
You're the best at this desu
>>51159531
That's true, but to be fair, we also have a lower % of Muslims than countries like France, Germany, Sweden, Germany, Belgium, etc.
>>51159521
>This sort of thing happens in every western country
This might surprise you, Nigel, but it actually doesn't.
>our police just happen to be on top of things.
On top of it like a sweaty Paki on an 11 year old, amirite?
>>51159646
That's mainly due to Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland not having many Muslims.
Those regions lower the overall rate for the UK
But England's Muslim rate alone is on the same level, if not higher, as the countries you mentioned.
>>51144304
>be Belgian
>can't go to school or university
>stay stupid
>business as usual
>>51158645
>Apparently they are doing something right then :^)
Not at all, they are GRANTED 50% rep. by law.
They rape democracy and they still play the butthurt game. Go figure.
>>51159780
>5.02% of the English population
>>51159878
Is that an AK12?
>>51159937
So basically like ours.
>>51160013
Yes, if you arbitrarily cut off certain parts of the UK.
>>51159937
If there are so few, how come they run rape rings that rival those of famous British institutions such as the BBC? Is it all the kebab and curry money they make?
>>51147718
by nuking it
thats the only option left by now
>>51160116
Yeah probably, dishing out the bare bribe money
>>51159937
>>51160075
So, basically the same as Sweden, Germany, Belgium, etc, which is totally the opposite of what you claimed here >>51159646
>Islam is the second largest religion with results from the United Kingdom Census 2011 giving the UK Muslim population in 2011 as ~2,706,066, ~4.5%
I wonder how many weren't counted/didn't declare themselves/are not legal citizens.
>>51160155
>>51149009
Brussels is the heart of the EU, they'd never let them shirk their responsibility to be culturally enriched
We lived in Belgium for 3 years (my Dad is in the Navy and has to relocate a lot). Growing up, I thought it was kinda shitty, cold, and depressing - yet at the same time, somehow warm and comfy when you're staying inside and it's raining (anyone know tfw)?
After we left, we started to miss it, and Mom and even talked about how she wanted to take a vacation and go back there. But after this happened, our thoughts changed to "Thank god we aren't there anymore."
>>51159158
Flemish is the official language of Flanders.
>>51160462
You're more than safe if you live somewhere like in the province of Luxembourg, which is also the comfiest part of the country

>blue eyes, pale skin, pure aryan

>>51159884
Just like Walloons are GRANTED 50% representation in the federal government, despite being a minority.
Could you imagine the capital of a country with a majority Flemish population being governed by Francophones?
You shouldn't.
>>51160215
>So, basically the same as Sweden, Germany, Belgium, etc, which is totally the opposite of what you claimed here >>51159646 (You)
It's not the opposite. The point I'm trying to make is that the UK has fewer Muslims, but has around the same amount only if you count England.
>I wonder how many weren't counted/didn't declare themselves/are not legal citizens.
Probably a very large a number. No one really knows how many undocumented people are in the UK, but it's likely to be in the high hundreds of thousands.
>>51152446
>mfw Walloon
>mfw I'm reacher than 80% of flemish people
I'd imagine it would be great. No hordes of darkies on the streets.
>>51160807
>It's not the opposite. The point I'm trying to make is that the UK has fewer Muslims, but has around the same amount only if you count England.
The UK has 4.5% muslims (officially) which is pretty much equal to every country you listed with the exception of France.
That was my point though.
>>51160848
>reacher

my bad. Slept 3 hours last night. Fuckin tired
>>51160763
I count 6 MR Ministers, that's barely 35% of the fed gov if you count the 4 Secretaries of State.
Coalitions are expected to be a representation of the poll.
I don't mind the 50% rep. rule as long as Flemings stop bitching about not being represented.
The clusterfuck that Brussels has become is also the responsability of the flemish parties that are in (50%) charge.
>>51144304
Like in Middle East.
RESPECT MUSLIM CULTURE!!!1111
LET MUSLIM OUTNUMBER US!!!!111
>>51161859
When will you all return to the motherland?
>>51162024
Sig Heel Nederland
>>51162024
Not him, but the Dutch posters here hate us more than the Flemings for some odd reason.
>>51162337
They're jealous because the flemings actually hate the dutch even more than walloons desu
>>51162337
Because you're basically the reason why Vlaanderen cannot just be the 13th province again.
>>51162404
Kijk, hij vind ons lief <3
>>51162404
Not really, from my experience most Flemmings see Walloons as lazy and poor. When we talk about Walloons it's mostly negative.
>>51162644
Of course, they hate them, but as I said they hate the dutch even more
>>51162489
>Because you're basically the reason why Vlaanderen cannot just be the 13th province again.
Well I think they can decide for themselves. If they wanted to become independent and join the Netherlands, they'd do it.
Even separatists don't necessarily want to join the Dutch.
>>51162024
Mother-innersea, you mean?
>>51161859
Shit like Molenbeek is the mayor's fault.
>>51158573
>in Brussels, flemish parties have a 50% representation in the local government despite being 15% in the population
Lol no they don't.
The "ministers" are 5 French vs 3 Dutch, and the Brussels parliament is 72 French vs 17 Dutch.
>>51162731
Krulbroodje AUB. De maan, de wind en WIJ.
>>51163060
>Shit like Molenbeek is the mayor's fault.
I see this everywhere but I doubt he has every power over his commune. Could you be more specific?
