It struck me as somewhat odd that the M.I.W.W.H (man in white with hat) walked past hotels and other busy tourist like spots.
He surely would know that cctv was present in those places and that he would be seen and recorded- wondering if perhaps he was a " decoy" terrorist- escapee?
Was he recording what was going on ahead and behind him as he left the area, for the purpose of future routes and the general response by LE and civilians to the bombings?
Were his " comrades " standing/watching him from prearranged vantage points along his escape route?
imo, speculation.
 
Totally Greg. I fear this world we are moving in. Yesterday's world I like to think I knew. The dawn to a new day. Today I thought I'd know. And tomorrow would follow today. New challenges new risks new ideas.
Now it's unsure. Uneasy. Unreal. Like watching a movie play out with a myriad of endings.
I brought my children into this world to make something of themselves. To grow. To love. To learn.
Now it's like some bitter twisted nightmare. With the depravity of Evil. Thru a religion of 'Peace' .
Barbarism. Hate. Torture. Genocide. Does not rise from a 'peaceful religion' . It is borne thru greed.
We are all soft targets in their eyes. The more soft targets they kill maime and abuse. The better the fear aspect.
We are all living one step from fear. The next attack. The next bomb. The next dirty bombs spread thru out a city. That will kill thousands. And leave that city a ghost city for generations.
This is the world we live in. This is OUR world. This is time to TAKE OUR WORLD BACK!

I think what we fail to remember is :

What we call war they call terror
What we call terror they call war

It is an endless cycle and there will be no end. Until the above is acknowledged , will never end. They are killing peoples mothers brothers fathers etc. We are doing the same. There is no difference between dead by our bombs or theirs.


I thought the NY newspaper a couple "A Sign Of Hope" weird - what are they talking about - it had to reopen $$$$$. How is that hopeful?

This was right after Paris in Belgium, in a raid, where they found a bunch of police uniforms, that was just chilling to me -- can you imagine?

WHen I read it back then it was just awful what a mess

Yeh, I thought it was very peculiar also, why would one not park a car nearbye? He was walking per SKY for hour and a quarter? They also just reported that the last video they released (this one) was close to the metro station!!

Does this mean he really did intend to die (no car?)
 
Incredibly brave of those people, especially staff who survived the attack to go back to work at the airport.
Hope they have specialists in PTSD available for everyone who showed up.
Wondering if airports in EU will covertly begin to stream some passengers onto different flights, perhaps initially through items offered on the food menu?

speculation, imo.
What do you mean?

This is also interesting, for the aftermath , future risks in brussels & Europe-wide

http://www.theguardian.com/world/20...ht-westerners-text-sent-youths-molenbeek-isis

Messages, feared to be from Isis recruiters, sent on Sunday after video online apparently showed young people celebrating attacks. 'Fight the westerners' text sent to youths in Molenbeek.

Re the taxi driver tip off - I don't know if this has link has been posted yet from NYT. I found it interesting as makes a very credible claim that the Belgian security services already had the bomb making flat under surveillance and it wasn't the taxi driver that actually led the cops to make the raid. The building's owner also confirms there was a previous ongoing investigation of the address.

I think quietly we know bio chem or nuc is inevitabte -- the taxi angle is actually good ---if at least they were close to stopping it I dont know why they got such a bad attack after this. THey have been arresting people since Paris. And I think the Friday before speeding stuff up- so maybe they were close but they moved the attack up moo
 
Paris attacks suspect Abrini arrested - Belgian broadcaster VRT
Source: Reuters - Fri, 8 Apr 2016 14:50 GMT

BRUSSELS, April 8 (Reuters) - Mohamed Abrini, wanted over November's Islamic State attacks in Paris, has been arrested in Brussels, Belgian public broadcaster VRT said on Friday, adding that he was probably involved in last month's Brussels bombings.

Public prosecutors confirmed in a brief statement only that police had made several arrests related to the Brussels attacks.

Abrini, 31, a Belgian national of Moroccan origin, is believed to have been filmed at a petrol station with Salah Abdeslam, another arrested Paris attacks suspect, two days before the attacks there.

Abrini and brothers Salah and Brahim Abdeslam were all childhood friends from Brussels.

Abrini is believed to have driven twice with the brothers from Belgium to Paris and back on 10 and 11 November.

Salah Abdeslam was detained in Brussels in March, days before militants launched attacks in the Belgian capital.

Brahim Abdeslam blew himself up at the Comptoir Voltaire restaurant after a shooting spree

Official: 6th person arrested in Belgium over attacks

PARIS — Belgian authorities have detained a total of six people suspected of ties to the Brussels bombings, including the last known fugitive of last year’s Paris attacks and a Swedish fighter linked to the French massacre, Belgium’s prosecutor’s office said Saturday. The arrests could give investigators new insights into the Islamic State group cell believed to have carried out the attacks in both countries.

Authorities announced the arrest of five men on Friday, including Mohamed Abrini, the last identified suspect at large from the Paris attacks. Belgium’s prosecutor’s office said Saturday that a sixth person had been arrested, but refused to give any further details ahead of an announcement due out later in the day. Another one of the six, named only as Osama K. by authorities was identified by Swedish media as Osama Krayem, who is known to have left the Swedish city of Malmo to fight in Syria.

Wondering about dopplegangers in these cases, maybe twins, or very similar-looking brothers or cousins are used in these type of bombings?
Regarding man in hat, HAL suggested a joker from batman type mouth might be the key.
speculation.
