BRUSSELS — We knew it was coming. Belgium had never experienced a massive terrorist attack, and no one believed that was because our police and intelligence services were more skilled than those of Spain, France or the U.K. — not for one second.It never added up. London, Paris, Madrid, but not Brussels, where there’s so much institutional real estate, with the biggest concentration of lobbyists outside Washington, D.C., with NATO headquartered here. We tried not to give in to the fear-mongering, but in our hearts we knew it was just a matter of time.
