As we grapple to understand what exactly happened in Brussels, and why such horrific acts might be committed, my thoughts and sympathies go out to all of the innocent people who have been affected by this – the victims, their families and friends, and the people of Belgium, who are surely suffering from the trauma and upset which such attacks cause. Also in my thoughts are the many people who travel to Brussels for whatever reason. Innumerable innocent people merely going out to work and getting on with their lives. One can only imagine the suffering and consider what the ramifications might be if a similar attack occurred in Ireland.
