Fire in the Innovation

Description

Did you know that there is a link between the fire in Innovation and the rise of Salafism in Belgium. That at first sight a curious connection is made in the book Brutopia by Pascal Verbeken: "In Brussels, mosques and Islamic cultural organizations receive support. Petrodollars pay for the Dutch and French translations of Korans, which are available in all kinds of shops. The Belgian royal family and the government have facilitated this policy.After the fire in the Brussels Inno in 1967, which killed 323 visitors, the Saudi King Faysal offered financial aid to the victims....King Baudouin gave the Saudis in exchange the Eastern Pavilion that was built in the Cinquantenaire Park for the World Exhibition of 1897. The Grand Mosque of Brussels came into the building.... With a lot of money they started to 'organize' Islam in Belgium."
