Behind the bomb smoke
30/3/16
Three
consecutive explosions occurred in the large hall of the airport and subway
station in the capital in Brussels (Belgium) on March 22nd 2016 made
dozens of people dead and put Europe on the critically endangered status.
Although
the true motive of the terrorists has not been clarified, but just a few days
ago, Belgium police caught the Salah Abdeslam, the suspect carried out the
bloody terrorist attacks in Paris, France on November 13 2015 which
caused 150 deaths. After the crime, Abdeslam Salah fled to Belgium. Therefore,
many people thought of the vengeance of Islamic State (IS).
But
it is clear that this was a bloody terrorist attack in Europe. Two consecutive
terrorist attacks aimed at the two most peaceful cities of the world: Brussels
and Paris. It shows that deadly hand of terrorism can be anywhere. And Europe is
extremely stressful. Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel warned people to
"avoid all activities", not to go out at this time. Britain has also
been placed on a state of emergency at "severe level", just below the
highest level of emergency is a state of war.
The
explosion in Brussels with many unique features showed huge possibility that
was a terrorist attack because the terrorist threat from extremist Islamist
militants could increase or reduce in each stage, but the fact that if a
character of the terrorist organization is arrested, then it will sooner or
later commit revenge. Terrorist attack in Paris on November 13 2015 was a
similar case.
Although
terrorism and extremism are seen as a global threat, but interests of the major
powers have been created gaps for them to survive in. About the explosion has
just happened in Brussels, headquarters of the Organization of the North
Atlantic Treaty (NATO), led by the US, chairman of the foreign policy committee
of the Duma (lower house) Alexei Pushkov wrote on Twitter for quite gloating
voice: “While Jens Stoltenberg (NATO head) were busy to to fight against the
so-called “threat from Russia” and send troops to Latvia, Brussels people were
killed right in front of him”. And spokesman for the Russian Foreign Ministry
Maria Zakharova was quoted as saying: "You can not support terrorism in
this corner of the world and not expect them to appear in other places."
Ms. Zakharova has hinted about the so-called Western support for some terrorist
organizations against Russia.
What
is going on in Brussels again indicated that if the world and especially the major
powers are not united, we will not be able to prevent terrorism and extremists.
Someone
said, Europe was too compassionate when excepting massive immigrants from the Middle
East. This fact complicates the security situation in Europe and makes the refugee
situation even more tragic.
