Last Night In Charleroi

[Khandro]

Seems to be coming so common, it barely gets a mention, this from Reuters;

"A machete-wielding man yelling "Allahu Akbar!" (God is greatest) injured two female police officers before being fatally shot in the Belgian city of Charleroi on Saturday, in what the prime minister said appeared to be a terrorist act."

Is that Prime Minister on to something?

That incident has had a fair bit of coverage in news media.

//does "allahu akhbar" tanslate into french as "please shoot me mr policeman"?//

mush. It does if it is combined with attacking them with a machete.

There's this. Admittedly it's not making the headlines anymore.

news from Charleroi very seldom gets a mention in British media., but in general it's about as exciting as news from Rutland, so that's probably why.
