Obama’s JV team strikes again

Obama’s favorite JV team has struck again.

Cowering under desks and running for their lives, this is the terrifying moment passengers were caught up in a suicide bomb attack at Brussels Airport this morning in a series of blasts that have killed at least 34 people across the city.

Witnesses described apocalyptic scenes with blood and ‘dismembered bodies everywhere’ after two blasts rocked the terminal at 8am (7am GMT) in a suspected suicide bombing, killing at least 14 people and injuring 35 others.

Then 79 minutes later at 9.19am, at least 20 people were killed and 55 injured, some critically, when a blast hit a Metro station just 400 metres from the EU headquarters in the city centre.

At the airport, there were reports of a firefight between police and the attackers who shouted in Arabic moments before detonating their bombs. A Kalashnikov was later recovered from the scene.

The blasts, which detonated near the American Airlines and Brussels airlines check-in desks, sent shockwaves through the terminal building, shattering windows and knocking roof tiles off the ceiling as terrified passengers ran for their lives.

The explosions have left countries worldwide reeling, with security placed on high alert, flights cancelled, Eurostar services suspended and France’s border with Belgium shut down.

Two suspects were arrested a mile from the Maelbeek metro station at around 11am as hundreds of troops and police flooded the streets of Brussels in the hunt for members of the terror cell.

Soldiers have been also been deployed at the airport and other key locations across Brussels as Belgium raised security to its maximum level.

The bombings come just a day after the Belgium Interior Minister warned of possible revenge attacks after the arrest of Paris massacre suspect Salah Abdeslam in the city on Friday.

The first thing we can expect to hear from obama is that we should not jump to conclusions about responsibility for the attacks, which thus far have left 34 dead in two places. Despite…

Shots were fired and Arabic shouted before the two airport bombings – one at least contained nails, according to Belgian media

The 9-11 attacks were thought to be attacks on all, but obama seems to think he is separate from these attacks. We’re safe from ISIS-style attacks, he said in December:

“ISIL is not going to pose an existential threat to us,” he said, insisting that although they were a “dangerous organization,” the country had strengthened national security under his administration.

“[W]e have hardened our defenses, our homeland has never been more protected by more effective intelligence and law enforcement professionals at every level than they are now,” he said, prior to the attack in San Bernardino later that day.

Just before the San Bernardino attack.

Paris. San Bernardino. Brussels. Who is really safe?

Although they cannot be properly vetted, Obama’s plan is for hundreds of thousands more refugees.

Obama spent 51 seconds addressing the attacks, saying the US would do “whatever is necessary” to assist Belgian authorities.

One can only imagine what that would be: calling the incidents “isolated” or “workplace violence”? Less than a year ago, obama had no strategy. Then he suggested later that he had one- one that would take three years to complete; as in, after he left office.

Exit question: Are these still “climate refugees”?
