Belgium Is Nuts - It Is Giving Into Fear, Bans Jewish Celebrations For Safety Concerns

Belgium's leaders are sending the wrong message to terrorists, ISIS, its citizens, and the world. It's sad to see.

An excerpt from, "Purim cancelled in Brussels" By Kobi Nachshoni, Ynet News, March 23, 2016:
Following the attacks at the airport and subway station in Brussels Tuesday morning, the Jewish community has cancelled its Purim celebrations at the behest of the police.
.
.
Rabbi Menachem Margolin, Head of the European Jewish Association, told Ynet that the decision to cancel the events was done at the request of the police due to the police's fear of additional terrorists in the area. 
"The police said that they are unable to protect the event while the city is in a state of war," he said.
