It's the annoying and grotesque Belgian language conflict, which wastes a lot of all kind of ressources and causes a plenty of confused results by "frictional losses" (literally translated from German). For example incapable authorities, which doesn't work together, so that important informations are getting lost.
Of course, the very most intelligence services in the very most countries often produces epic fails or don't produce anything usable, also in Germany, where due the federal system the domestic intelligence services and the police are ruled by the local federal states, but in Belgium the language problematic is annother serious and boosting problem.
Maybe you know, that for that reason in quite a lot of other countries Belgium is seen as a kind of "failed state".
I see. And indeed the complex structure of Belgium makes things difficult. And I've heard the accusations of "failed state", all coming from obviously perfect countries where everybody lives in harmony, with no unemployment or social tensions.
But when I read your first reply, it implied that whoever from that London taxi company who typed Brussels in French instead of English, was partially the cause of Tuesday's attack. Or at least that's what I understood.
