It could help prevent future attacks in Brussels on NATO headquarters, the world court, and nuclear power plants.
I'm not saying they should build a wall for sure, but maybe.
homeland security needs to be tightened up in many ways.

number of Muslims worldwide: 1,600,000,000
number of Europeans fighting for ISIS: 3,000
Number of ISIS fighters: 30,0000
Do you think 1.6 Billion people -- all of them -- are carrying bombs? Really? You want to declare war on all Muslims?
Seems kind of inefficient to me. How about if we focus on the ones doing the fighting?

It's also important to factor in sympathizers, people who help terrorists, and provide safe haven.

I definitely didn't mean Muslims, just the extremists. Cut that race/religion/xenophobia card bullshit out.

Just so we clear up your hypocrisy:Brussels is the last place Obama wants to play some rounds of golf right now
"The whole premise of terrorism is to try to disrupt people's ordinary lives" -Barry from Honolulu
Bush took 65 combined trips to Texas and Maine for a total of 407 vacation days, and another 108 trips to Camp David for another 341 vacation days. Or better put, almost TWICE as many days as President Obama.
Yea, yea, I know, you didn't "vote for Bush", you "don't like Bush", yada yada.
Stop being a hypocrite. Or better put, stop being Republican.
Bush was on vacation 26% of the time while in office. Obama? about 18% of the time.
But we all know Bush was out to lunch 100% of the time.

"A wall may not have stopped this particular attack but, as long as potential future attackers aren't also from Belgium, it may or may not stop the next one."

You can't hate a religion for what a few do but it's a strange catch twenty two when it is the religion itself telling these people to act in such radical manners.
The Christian bible tells people to kill as well but most don't?
What's the difference then between the middle east and the western world?
Education.
I guarantee you a well educated and properly learned being is much less likely to commit. These atrocities are being carried out by the very opposite: Uneducated zealots who know nothing more than the vile they've been fed since a child and they lack the introspection to take the five seconds it takes to look at one's own actions and ask if they are the ones doing something wrong.
Don't hate the people OP, hate the system that molds them this way. Support education reform home and abroad, spread the message of knowledge and progress. The world can only get better if we move forward.

And for what it's worth, Afghanistan is in Central Asia, not the Middle East.

islam doesn't teach people to kill other people, and ISIS is loaded with very intelligent people whose families were killed by pointless us and international wars in their homes.
you are a bit of an idiot, eh?

He was on a diplomacy mission, working, you know, doing the job the president of the US is supposed to do? He's the first US president to have ties with Cuba in 80 years. + another 1 Obama, I bet Cuba is beautiful, I can't wait to visit!
"United States: President Barack Obama stated in Havana, Cuba, that "the thoughts and prayers of the American people are with the people of Belgium and we stand in solidarity with them", adding "we will do whatever is necessary to help our friend and ally Belgium in bringing to justice those responsible." Obama also issued an Executive Order calling for American flags to be lowered to half-staff until Friday, 25 March 2016."
LOL!

As Buck already mentioned, many of the terrorists are educated, the 9/11 hijackers are a good example
It's a skewed interpretation of Islam, living in a place that doesn't accept you, and the means to carry out attacks that cause them
Right-wing nationalism fuels the fire and creates more of them
If the children of immigrants didn't feel marginalized, they wouldn't resort to terrorism. It's a chicken/egg equation and neither side wants to admit the other came first. Natives wonder why immigrants can't just assimilate and live peaceful, productive lives, immigrants or their children wonder why natives treat them differently when they're trying to do exactly that. Whenever a terrorist commits a bombing, they get blamed for it just because they look different.
If I were native born and the kid of an immigrant, and white people blamed me for terrorism and treated me differently just because people from a country close to the one my parents came from, I would feel marginalized, and depending on the severity, I might become radicalized. Like I said before, there's only so much a person can take, white, black, Mexican, nationalist or immigrant. People are people, you fuck with them long enough, they're going to strike back. Don't blame them when they're pushed to their limit. Someone fucks with me enough, I see no issue with breaking the law to deal with them. A mindset many of these same people would share if they were white.

isn't breitbart the same "news" organization that purposely and deceitfully edited a video of a black director of development for the department of agriculture in order to make her look racist, when the story she was telling was anything but, and she ended up getting fired over that incredibly racist incident that breitbart news purposely and maliciously orchestrated?
