Belgian minister says many Muslims 'celebrated' after attacks

Belgian Interior Minister Jan Jambon said Saturday that a "significant" part of the Muslim population celebrated attacks, blaming the country's policies for failing to integrate migrants into society.

"A significant section of the Muslim community danced when attacks took place," Jambon said in an interview with the Flemish-language De Standaard newspaper.

The Belgian minister also accused Muslim residents of Brussels' largely immigrant Molenbeek neighbourhood of attacking police during an operation last month to arrest a suspect in connection with the deadly attacks in Paris last November.

"They threw stones and bottles at police and press during the arrest of Salah Abdeslam. This is the real problem. Terrorists we can pick up, remove from society. But they are just a boil. Underneath is a cancer that is much more difficult to treat. We can do it, but it won't be overnight," he said.

In Saturday's interview he said that the danger linked to the radicalisation of youth from third and fourth generation families is "too deeply rooted" in some areas because Belgium "have for many years ignored the warning signs".

'significant' doesn't always mean many

Significant can be 20% as well as 5%.

If it was 20% it would be very worrying, if it was 5% it would be quite worrying

Probably they are just sick of government and being happy of anything harm govt. I dont think it has anything with religion.

See this http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/653818/Molenbeek-terror-raid-Paris-attacks-Salah-Abdeslam-Belgium-riot-police

Lol right, yeah that killing of innocent people yeah that will show the government not to have transport, Oh look its all our fellow muslims who are celebrating, must be a big coincidence

That's only one example of anti-Belgian sentiment in certain communities, I didn't say that was evidence of celebration

As a government minister, I think he's got an idea of what is going on in his country

Typical racist belgian, likely made up the entire incident to pander to chavvy far right voters

If it wasn't for the Leftist commie thugs in the West, who label it hatred to oppose mass immigration then we wouldn't be in the mess. They are largely Marxist, Trotskyists, they act just like Stalin's regime!

Ironically, "Jambon" means ham in French.

OK bighead. If you're so smart, what's French for croissant?
