"Belgium Allows Terrorist to Escape
From the desk of Paul Belien on Thu, 2006-03-09 15:05
Two weeks ago, a terrorist managed to escape arrest in Brussels, despite being
under surveillance by 32 agents of the Belgian state security, the Sûreté de l’Etat (SdE). Belgium is an inherently corrupt state. The prototype of what the European Union as a federal state is likely to become. I have argued for some time (The Spectator, 13 July 2002) that it is no coincidence that Belgium has become a safe haven for international terrorists. Artificial states like Belgium (The Salisbury Review, December 2003) tend to be corrupt (The Wall Street Journal, 12 September 1996) because no-one identifies with the state. Hence, it is no surprise that no-one in the Belgian government refuses to accept responsibility for the escape of Fehriye Erdal."
