Don't be Muslim.. don't be Muslim...
Two police officers have been attacked with a machete by a man shouting 'Allahu Akbar' outside a police station in Belgium.
ALLAHDAMMIT!!!insert alt text here
The cops, reportedly both female, were attacked in the city of Charleroi this afternoon.

UPDATE: Not a Lutheran
The federal prosecutor’s office said Sunday the assailant was a 33-year-old Algerian man, known to police for common crimes, who had been living in Belgium since 2012.
But, hey... cheer up... it's not all machetes & explosive devices...
"About 40 days ago 6-year-old Gharibgol was forced to marry the 55-year-old Mullah of Obeh, the village where she lives with her family. She was sold to him by her father in exchange for a goat, a bag of rice, tea, sugar, and a few litres of cooking oil."
The capricious and unknowable will of Allah.

p.s. - I hope it was a really nice goat.

Sigh.
