Young men in the troubled Molenbeek district of Brussels have been sent text messages urging them to “fight the westerners”.
The texts, calling for the youngsters to “make the right choice”,
were written in French and sent from an untraceable prepaid account.
They come less than a week after two terrorist attacks in the
European capital - one on a metro train and one in the city airport -
killed 35 and injured scores more.
Isis, also known as Daesh, has claimed responsibilty for the atrocity.
Socialist MP Jamal Ikazban, who posted a copy of the text message on Twitter, told the
Guardian: “These people are trying to take our youth by storm.
“It is like having a big-time drug dealer outside the school gates.
We feel the same. They have to be taken off the streets. They are
predators and our youths are the victims.
“Joining Daesh is a form of
suicide. They understand that there is a despair here which could be
used to indoctrinate and recruit these people. I’m very angry that we
have not done enough about that."
