Local media reported that the man, a corporal who served in Afghanistan and had access to weapons because he was a shooting instructor, had links to far-right organisations and was on a terror watch list. The 46-year-old suspect, named only as Jurgen C, had previously made threats against Marc van Ranst, one of Belgium’s most high-profile virologists, who became famous during the pandemic. Mr van Ranst, who received three months of police protection after the initial threats, was taken to a police safehouse after the soldier’s girlfriend raised the alarm on Tuesday. She had found two farewell letters from her partner, in which said he no longer wanted to live “in such a society ruled by politicians and virologists” and that he would “join the resistance”. DJ Reporting on this pandemic is not without risk. A Dutch pandemic denier claimed Van Ranst had only himself to blame...It is sad to see also "media" turning more and more against virologists etc. warning this pandemic is far from over. "Unwelcome news" bad for advertising in a "free press"...
