Belgium PM Maintains Maximum Terror Alert, Confirms Threat Still "Imminent, Serious"; Civilians Urged To "Remain At Home"

Latest Update:

  • *MICHEL: BRUSSELS TERROR THREAT STILL SERIOUS AND IMMINENT
  • *BELGIUM'S MICHEL: TERROR ALERT REMAINS AT LEVEL 4
  • *MICHEL: TERROR ALERT IN BRUSSELS STAYS AT HIGHEST LEVEL
  • *BELGIUM'S MICHEL: BRUSSELS METRO TO STAY CLOSED UNTIL MONDAY
  • *BRUSSELS SCHOOLS, UNIVERSITIES, COLLEGES TO BE CLOSED MONDAY
  • *BELGIUM'S MICHEL: WILL RE-ASSESS TERROR THREAT MONDAY AFTERNOON
  • *MICHEL: HAVE TAKEN STEPS WITH EU INSTITUTIONS IN BRUSSELS

So - much like The Fed, it appears Belgian officials find themselves trapped at the lower bound of liberty and freedom and higher bound of terror and fearmongery.

As we detailed earlier,

On Saturday, police and other security personnel instituted what amounts to a military lockdown of Brussels amid a “serious and imminent” terror threat.

The government’s crisis center advised the public to “avoid places where a lot of people come together like shopping centers, concerts, events or public transport stations wherever possible.” The metro was closed, bus drivers refused to work, and local authorities were encouraged to cancel large events. Soldiers and police carrying assault rifles patrolled the streets where military vehicles were parked and for all intents and purposes, residents were told to simply stay inside. 

Belgian Interior Minister Jan Jambon told reporters he wanted a register of everyone living in Molenbeek because it was not clear at present who was there, with authorities conducting door-to-door checks of every house. "The local administration should knock on every door and ask who really lives there," Jambon said. Here's what Jambon had to say on Sunday: "There are several suspects, that’s why we have put in place such a concentration of resources. We are following the situation minute by minute. There’s is no point in hiding that there is a real threat, but we are doing everything we can, day and night, to counter this situation,”

Saturday came and went without incident, but apparently, Brussels isn’t out of the woods yet. The terror threat level remained at 4 - the highest - on Sunday and the warzone like conditions may extend into the work week. 

Authorities are apparently searching for “two men” who officials say pose an imminent threat to the public. "There are two terrorists in the Brussels region that could commit very dangerous acts,” Schaerbeek Mayor Bernard Clerfayt told Belgian media on Sunday. 

As The Telegraph reports, “the national security council, including top ministers, was expected to convene on Sunday afternoon to determine what measures to take or retain,” while it’s possible schools could be closed on Monday. 

Just in case the public wasn’t worried enough, “a terror suspect” linked to Jihadi John has apparently “evaded” British intelligence and escaped to Brussels where authorities fear he may have linked up with an Abdelhamid Abaaoud cell. The suspect, who authorities are calling “CF”, “was under surveillance when he slipped the security net and escaped in the back of a lorry,” The Telegraph says, adding that “he is known to have arrived in Brussels where he tried to obtain a false British passport.” CF is “seeking to harm the public on a wide and terrifying scale,” a judge says. 

Here are the latest images out of Brussels:

"Shelter in place and remain at home. If you were planning to attend an event, we strongly urge you to reconsider," the US Embassy in Brussels advised Americans living in or visiting the city. 

“Unfortunately, it’s a threat that goes beyond just that individual,” Jabon added, referring to Paris suspect Salah Abdeslam. "One big test will be whether the metro system starts running again Monday morning, when many of the capital’s more than one million inhabitants depend on public transport to get to work," WSJ notes.

So, the terror marathon continues unabated and as you might have heard overnight, there were conflicting reports on Saturday regarding whether Anonymous (who decided last week to launch a cyber war against ISIS) had leaked a list of targets terrorists intended to strike on Sunday. The top Anonymous Twitter feed denied that the "intel" emanated from the group, but authorities took it seriously enough that the FBI weighed in. 

In any event, Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel wants you to know that despite the troops in the streets, the city-wide lockdown, and the government's advice to remain indoors, nobody should be "panic-stricken." Rather, Belgians should just "be alert."

Roger that, Charles.

'Bug-out time' - that phrase always cracks me up, Manthong.

During the last Ebola® scare, it turns out the U.S. was performing some Mengele-kind of experiments at the Kenema Lassa Fever Research Facility (and hospital) in Sierra Leone to wrap ebola in a Lassa fever protien envelope to make it more virulent. The near simultaneous appearance of completely different strains in Liberia and New Guinea have never been explained, but they did convince everyone that it was some mysterious NATURAL outbreak. Just coincidence, I guess. The Kenema staff is all conveniently dead from ebola, so we'll never know what Tulane and the CDC were really doing down there. 

The next step down the Mengele road was for USAMRIID to fund CDC/Tulane to find a more suitable non-human host. I guess fruit bat snacks never took off like they did in West Africa. They were looking into infecting bacteria like E. coli or parasites like Toxoplasma with their Frankenebola mutants to make it's spread much more rapid. About half the human population already has toxoplasma parasites (bugs) - they just don't cause us any disease because our immune systems keep them in check. These 'new' experiments were supposedly going on in Kenya where they just had some kind of ISIS attacks.

'Bug-out time' indeed. You can try to outrun E. coli or Toxoplasma Gondii, but you won't be able to hide from it. There is not 'sheltering in place'. No worries - embrace the cure. The FEMA processing center will have a quick test and put you in the appropriate line when the time comes. 

Liberia eradicated ebola a couple of months ago. They just reported three new cases this week. When Kenya starts reporting an outbreak, it will be way to late for any of us to bug out.

You're right about the no concept part, Isotope. I'm curious which conspiracy theory you find more implausable.

In my caveman understanding, a strand of RNA is carried in a protein capsid until it finds a host cell. The strand is injected into the cell, taking over it's machinery to replicate more ebola. Tulane's Lassa experiments supposedly involved modification of the ebola genes to substitute the Lassa capsid structural protein for the 'normal' ebola one. Scientists seemed to think it was possible since something like it had already been done.

They had produced ebola strains that would infect many different animals and were working on ones that infected insects and plants. Single-celled parasites? I don't know. On a different note, the U.S. has (again 'supposedly') researched organisms for distribution of biological weapons through municipal water supplies. In the 80's, it was directly through some kind of chlorine-resistent pathogens. A kind of super-toxoplasmosis was of special interest, but research sort of died out after the fall of the Soviet Union. Can they genetically modify EBV to use toxoplasmosis gondii? I'll bet those psychopaths tried. There's always big money in death.

I'm particularly amused by the idea that what's really holding Ebola back is that it isn't virulent enough. LOL.

How about engineering a strain that doesn't melt hosts in a hemorrhagic crescendo so it can spread farther unchecked?

I'm a microbiologist and I got my Master's studying anthrax. What Paveway says about our dear leaders weaponizing Ebola and other viruses is correct. We have that facility in Sierra Leone because 1. their government is friendly to ours 2. the media is completely controlled 3. there is a population of not well-read people who volunteer for vaccinations and 4. when people start getting sick from them, they have an easy excuse of 'oh it's bush meat' or 'it's indigenous to this area.' Our government really IS that evil.

I know. I worked in that scene and got out the first chance I could.

Recall that the African locals said re: Médecins Sans Frontières/Doctors Without Borders (MSF) "Everywhere these Doctors go disease follows"

They blocked off the roads to their villages and defended against their entry.

MSF were the ones to say Assad had used chemical weapons on his people with zero evidence, and it turned out that Prince Bandar of Saudi is the one who gave chemical weapons to the rebels.

Missionaries have long been involved in imperialism.

Two years ago, French president Valls refused Assad's offer to provide a list on known French Daeshists. Way to go, Valls.

The article also discusses another analyis of the French attack. It proposes the event was actually two separate attacks, one by the incompetent patsies who caused minor casualties and the other by a professional hit team in the Bataclan, on the lines of the group of snipers who fired at both sides during the Ukraine Maidan.

HowdyDoody - the latest CIA/MSM brainwashing effort is to make people stop using ISIS and call them by their Arab acronym - daesh - instead. It keeps the peons confused - they think it's a new/different threat. This happened right after the West's support of ISIS started being reported and in earnest after Putin pounded home the message that the G20 is supporting ISIS. All of a sudden, 'daesh' started popping up in the MSM instead of ISIS. "...Israel buying ISIS oil? Well, at least they're not buying those Daesh terrorist's oil!..." 

Arab speakers use the term daesh appropriately, but it's meaningless to the English-speaking world except as a new, confusing rinse-and-repeat to obscure the terrorists we created. 

Don't fall for it. We resisted their failed efforts to rebrand ISIS as ISIL and then IS. Editors gave up 'enforcing' the official IS acronym because the peons refused to obey their rules.

ISIS may not be technically accurate, but every time you use it (instead of ISIL, IS or daesh), you're subtly telling TPTB and their MSM mouthpieces to fuck off. They already control the narrative; don't let them control the labels. Besides, they absolutely hate it that people just wouldn't let go of ISIS for their preferred new term: IS. Do them the same favor by refusing to swallow their new obfuscation: daesh. We all know what ISIS is and where it came from. The more the MSM tries to rebrand it, the more irrelevant they become.

+1 for Penny for Your Thoughts. The 'real' professional assassins at the Bataclan were long gone by time their hapless patsies had to blow themselves up. The pros dragged out bodies as cover and were never suspect. The plan was always to get the patsies to trap themselves upstairs - they didn't know this, of course. They thought the pros would be coming up with them. In fact, they were reportedly wandering around looking for them. "Hey... where did our leaders go? Anyone see them?..." Academi/Xe guys don't get paid enough to actually die during their homicidal orgies. Dying? That's the patsies' job.

The current generation of politicians in Europe appear to be more akin to a collective chocolate fireguard than any other since the birth of Christ, and since they are now the ruling class, performing with way more stupidity and spinelessness than the royalty ever did in preceding centuries.

Also the start of ML here in USSA today ! It will only take a small attack here in CONTUS and we will have ML here as well. Paris was called a massive attack and it was only 7 guys with small arms and few explosives ? This is NOT a massive attack , not even close. So now the public both here and there are primed with fear and will demand ML as soon as we see same here in USSA ? None of this is a concidence as Americans have grown fat, dumb. lazy, spoiled, apathetic, amd cowardly, not at all unlike the French that watched the jihadis reload pump shotguns which takes a while and nobody rushed them to save themselves ? They were just like a herd of lemmings in pure panic and overpowered with fear !  And of course the government will provide the cure and supposedly proctect us all from the seven guys ? but at what prcice ? It may be 10 guys here in USSA or 20, who knows but a joke none the less out of 350+ million ! Look what two kids did in Boston and the Russians gave us almost 2 years warning about them . People were begging for ML and military type LEOs in the streets over two kids  !  Talk about some weak motherfuckers ? We will get exactly what we deserve because we are afraid to stand up to these control freaks ! There is a much better way.

I think you will find Chimp (if you remove your hand from your eyes and Netanyahu's cock from your anus), that the vast majority of Muslims, like everyone else, just want to go about their daily lives without being sucked into proxy wars and droned randomly.

You cannot spell paedophile (though, if you hail from Israel you probably are one) and for the record, Muslims worship God, just as Orthodox Christians like me do- they just call him Allah. Talmudic jews would seem to worship a) Money b) Satan...in no particular order. That is why even the decent Jews of the torah hate you.

As Wittgenstein (a Jewish convert) once remarked 'Whereof one cannot speak, thereof one must remain silent'. To paraphrase that for you...it reads 'If you can only talk out of your arse, shut the fuck up'.

True, in part.  Islam is a screwy, absurd, religion.  (If you say they worship a pedophile, that's not surprising to me.)

On the other hand, Christianity is preposterous, preposterous in a thousand ways.

On the third hand, Judaism is a sheer, blank, bottomless lie. (To claim one nation is god's chosen people is a moral depravity. Abraham, the supposed father of Judaism was demonstrably psychotic, trying to sacrifice his son just to make a religious statement.)

State of emergency, blackout in Russia’s Crimea after transmission towers in Ukraine blown up

 

https://www.rt.com/news/323012-crimea-blackout-lines-blown-up/

 

Russia’s Crimea has switched to autonomous reserve power after transmission towers in the adjacent Ukrainian Kherson region were blown up, causing a blackout. Meanwhile, the Right Sector and Crimean Tatar “activists” have been attempting to block repairs.

Crimean authorities rushed to connect hospitals and other vital infrastructure to reserve power stations and generators late on Saturday after the four main transmission lines from Ukraine were cut off in an apparent act of sabotage. The regional energy ministry has created an emergency response center to deal with the power cut.

 

“Crimea has been completely cut off,” the Krymenergo energy company’s director Viktor Plakida told TASS, adding that he could not immediately provide any more details.

The Crimean Emergencies Ministry has declared a state of emergency due to the complete power outage and has put rescue teams on high alert.

From CNBS...(I watch it so you don't have to)...

 

http://www.cnbc.com/2015/10/05/why-sanctions-against-russia-are-here-for...

 

Russia's military intervention in Syria has spurred speculation that a common enemy — Islamist extremists — could soothe tensions between Moscow and the West and help in the lifting of sanctions over tensions in Ukraine. However, both sides are unwilling to step down over Russia's annexation of Crimea, raising concerns that tit-for-tat sanctions are here for the long-run and could even be increased.

"The sanctions with respect to Crimea are here to stay short-term and probably long-term," Ross Denton, a partner specializing in competition and trade at legal firm Baker & McKenzie, said on Friday at a news briefing.

Moscow is viewed as unlikely to give Crimea back to Ukraine any time soon, meaning that the West will maintain sanctions in order to show its seriousness in opposing country rulers with designs on neighboring countries.

I've only ever been in a lockdown twice, once during a hurricane and the other at charles de gaulle airport in Paris because of a bomb threat. But I also recall being in DC on 9-12 and wandering around a town that had closed down. After a few hours people will start to get pissed off with cabin fever and say fuck this shit. It's doubtful that any self-respecting terrorist group would stage an attack with no one out on the streets but with businesses and sporting events closed down, the financial and psychological damage is already done.  Stocks as ever will be the only other winners.

The question here is who holds the power, who is controlling the situation?  Two terrorists have taken control of the armed forces.  it's not the government or the citizens in control, it's the terrorists.  They have the power and authority to call out the army to the streets.  They have the power and the authority, given to them by the government.  The government empowers these small groups in the way it responds.  Two terrorists have shut down and locked down the city.  They have the power.  The two terrorists have the power over how taxpayers money is being spent.  The citizens have no say.  The government has cut the citizens out of the equation.  The government has put the terrorists in charge of the taxes.  The government has also put the terrorists in charge of what is left of the EU citizens liberties and freedom, which we know will continue to be eroded.  It's clear to me the terrorists have won a major victory in the EU.

Synonymous also with "Patriot Act", (Noun) Loss of all freedoms and Liberty to support umm... "Freedom Democracy" aaaand Liberty

Synonymous also with "Police state", (Noun) send rabble goyim to the killing fields to support NSA, TSA, DHS, Pentagon, Washington Beltway, and the profits made from Military Contractors.

You are correct.  A good descriptive phrase for democracy is "mob rule".  It's an idea sold to the "sheeple", because it works to eventually bring a country to an oligarchy.  The US founding fathers understood this quite clearly, and the word "democracy" appears NOWHERE in the US constitution, OR in any of the state constitutions.  People often confuse it with a Republic.  Your negatives are from sheeple, and the stupid fuck trolls.  You can confidently ignore those that want a collar around their neck.

Gangs of New York: Sicilian mafia offers Big Apple protection from 'psychopathic' ISIS

 

https://www.rt.com/usa/323032-mafia-isis-warning-gambino/

 

The son of a New York mob boss has given Islamic State a stark warning, saying if they are planning any attacks in New York, they will have to contend with the Sicilian mafia. The notorious crime syndicate say they want to do their bit to protect locals.

 

Giovanni Gambino, the son of a key figure in the Gambino mob organization, says the mafia is in a much better position than security bodies, such as the FBI or Homeland Security, to give New Yorkers the protection they need. 

“They often act too late, or fail to see a complete picture of what's happening due to a lack of ‘human intelligence,’” he said in an interview with NBC News, as cited by Reuters, adding that the mafia’s knowledge of individual movements and interaction with locals gives it the upper hand, even compared to the latest surveillance technologies. 

Gambino, who is trying to carve out a career as a Hollywood screenwriter, says that, following the horrendous terror attacks in Paris on November 13, protection is more important than ever.

 

"The world is dangerous today, but people living in New York neighborhoods with Sicilian connections should feel safe," he said. "We make sure our friends and families are protected from extremists and terrorists, especially the brutal, psychopathic organization that calls itself the Islamic State,”

 

-----------

Aren't the Mafia usually run by registered Democrats (who are also big donors)?
