On Tuesday morning suicide bombers launched attacks on Brussels\u2019 airport and metro system, leaving 34 dead and at least 100 injured.<\/p>\n
Galloway told RT that Europe\u2019s \u201cSchengen agreements should have been suspended completely after the equally foul atrocity in Paris.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n Read more<\/p>\n IS militants are \u201cwell organized, and their murderous intent is uncheckable,\u201d<\/em> he said, adding \u201cthey care nothing about giving their own lives in order to take others.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n Given IS\u2019 numbers, broad presence, and organizational capacity, terror attacks are possible in other European states, he stressed during the interview.<\/p>\n \u201cThese people are in huge numbers. These attacks in Paris and Brussels were not lone-wolf attacks by deranged swivel-eyed mad-men. These are people with military capability and appear to exist in all countries.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re just not getting to grips with that,\u201d<\/em> he said. \u201cI think Europe will go into lockdown.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Britain is rightly worried to be in the IS \u201cfiring line,<\/em>\u201d he added.<\/p>\n Galloway said he supports Russia\u2019s intervention in Syria and its war against IS. He also criticized Turkish President Recep Tayyip Ergodan for allowing extremists to pass through its borders.<\/p>\n British Prime Minister David Cameron has said the nation will \u201cstand with Belgium\u201d<\/em> and pledged to continue the fight against extremism.<\/p>\n He tweeted: \u201cI have chaired a meeting of Cobra \u2013 we are increasing police presence at ports, airports, Tube stations and international railway stations.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cThe terrorists behind today\u2019s atrocities attack our way of life and they attack us because of who we are.
