Luke 19:43 The days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment against you and encircle you and hem you in on every side.
An Islamic extremist who attacked a Jewish museum in Brussels, Belgium has been charged with “murder in a terrorist context” by Belgian authorities.
29-year-old Medhi Nemmouche was arrested in France on May 30th and extradited to Belgium to stand trial. He had fought the extradition claiming that because two of the victims of the shooting were Israeli, Belgium would give him to the Israeli authorities rather than trying him.
Nemmouche entered a Jewish museum on May 24th with an AK-47 assault rifle and a handgun. He killed two Israeli tourists and two museum staffers while wounding multiple others. He then fled before police could arrive on the scene.
The gunman had tried to film the attack but the camera malfunctioned during the assault. However, a voice on the video prior to the malfunction was definitively tied to Nemmouche.
Nemmouche had flown to Syria in 2012 to fight with Islamic extremists against the Syrian government before returning to Europe.
