The Republican candidates haven't even engaged in dialogues with foreign leaders, how would they know what they would do? Besides, unless the President of the USA is planning to invade Belgium what exactly would he do by returning to Washington?

Politics. That is all such symbolic moves illustrate. 

Jihadists don't value their own lives. They become supposedly spiritually pure to pass onto the next life. That is a very strange idea. Usually a life well lived is rewarded at the end of the road and not when a young man decides he wants his virgins. The selflessness of one's life such as a holy man earns reward by judgement of God. The idea a young man can simply learn bomb skills and take the lives of others in order to pass into a favorable after life is simply bizarre. It has no selflessness 

There are lots and lots of Muslim soldiers in this world. They defend their country. They live a life of service to their countries. They die natural deaths in hopes of owning a soul deserving of the after life. If every Muslim soldier in the world believed he or she could simply decide the day of their death and go on to their reward the world would have no Muslim soldiers.

I think Europe needs to assess it's communities of all kinds and find a productive and happy life worth living. If it was wonderful to be a Muslim in Belgium there would not be obsession with projecting control on others and deciding they were all infidels. 

There are Muslims that die a natural death. This idea of radicalization has to end. The young man's life is tragic when there is no other venue for their expression of self except becoming a suicide bomber. That is about as depraved a life that a person can live.
