Brussels bus machete attack leaves three injured as woman goes on bloody rampage before being shot by police


Witnesses claim the woman was of 'Asian' appearance but investigators do not believe the attack is terror-related.

Officials were not immediately available for comment but public broadcaster RTBF quoted unidentified sources as saying police believe the assailant had mental health problems.

Worrying for real people who suffer with true mental health problems, they are likely to be shot dead with no questions asked Sad

That's a fair point Ibrahima and if there of Asian appearance their chances of being shot must rise dramatically.

A Frenchman in Australia killed a 21-year-old British woman and wounded a 30-year-old British man at a backpacker hostel in the state of Queensland, reportedly yelling “Allahu Akbar” while attacking the pair with a knife.

Police arrested the 29-year-old French traveller and were investigating whether the “senseless” attack was motivated by Islamic extremism. 

According to witnesses, the killer yelled “Allahu Akbar” – Arabic for “God is greater” – during the attack and after he was arrested.

Mr Gollschewski said police were investigating whether the attacker was motivated by Islamic extremism, adding: “We could be dealing with a pure criminal act or something related to mental health or drug issues.”

Most people with mental illness are not violent and are more likely to harm themselves or be the victim of crimes.

That's one of the reasons why these headlines are so offensive.

Exactly. They run a mile from generalising about any common religious affiliations of perpetrators but are quite happy to stigmatise and marginalise those experiencing mental health difficulties by implication.

This is disgusting.

Uncanny how mental health issues within Islam seem to result in the stabbing to death of non believers to a chorus of Allahu Akbar.
