There is a European database that could have stopped Abdesalem Lassoued. But he wasn’t into that either

A European database in which one country can see when another suspects a person of terror. Could that have prevented Monday’s attack in Brussels? Such a database exists. It contains a quarter of a million names and was consulted more than thirteen million times last year. But Abdesalem Lassoued, the man who murdered two Swedish football fans in the name of IS, was not among them. Whose fault is that?
