Possible terrorist thwarted by noon feeding

The wife of a Belgian diplomat was thrown out of the Metropolis Country Club in White Plains, NY, because her actions were suspicious and possibly could lead to an act of terrorism. The highly suspicious act consisted of merely breast-feeding her child!

According to the NY Post Tom Neijens, 36, and his wife, Roseline Remans, 34, stopped by the Metropolis Country Club on June 8 and asked if they could have lunch despite the fact that they weren’t members.

Staffers gave the Harlem family permission to dine on the terrace, where Remans said she discreetly bared her bosom to feed her daughter, Luka.

A female manager swiftly intervened to nip the feeding in the bud. “She said, ‘Please leave immediately, you are disturbing the members,’ ” Neijens, first secretary of the Belgium Mission to the UN, told The Post.

Neijens said it would only take a few minutes, but Remans was told to finish in the restroom. “You don’t ask a person to have lunch in the restroom — why would you ask a baby to have lunch there?” Neijens said.

Minutes later, the Greenburgh Police Department arrived. Detective Scott Harding allegedly yelled, “Close the doors!” and two other diners were told to leave the terrace.

Neijens said the officer warned the couple they were trespassing and said some people at the club thought they were terrorists because of their black backpack.

When Remans, on the verge of tears, questioned why terrorists would breast-feed at a ritzy club, the cop allegedly replied, “In Sri Lanka, babies are used by terrorists.”

Harding changed his tone when Neijens revealed his State Department-issued ID. “You have to understand, this club has had terrorism threats in the past,” the cop said.

Lt. B.J. Ryan, a spokesman for the Greenburgh PD, called the incident a “cultural misunderstanding” — and said it was Neijens who fumed, “You must think the baby is a terrorist.”
