When france was attacked facebook was flooded with posts and people changing photos with a french flag over their heads.
Not one post as of yet about Belgium. Have we become custom to such events so quickly ? - Was not enough people hurt ? Is France more favoured then Belgium?

I think it's partly people growing 'accustomed' to the unfortunate events. Also, people are generally more familiar with France, and the French flag is instantly recognisable. Bigger terrorist killings have happened in Turkey over the past month, and there's even less overt concern.

I've lived in Belgium for 6 months before. Nice place, generally nice people, but it has been a cracker box waiting to go off for a while.

There was that eastern European lady who could see the future and predicted that 2016 is the beginning of when Isis takes over Europe and eventually the whole of Europe will become Islamic
