Deadly attack on office of French magazine Charlie Hebdo

Its latest tweet was a cartoon of the Islamic State militant group leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
 

I wonder who could have done this? The Mormons?

33. Charlie Hebdo was targeted for exercising its right to freedom of speech, journalist Douglas Murray tells the BBC. "I think that a lot about our future freedom of speech depends on whether or not people think that Charlie Hebdo brought this on itself or realise that the people who carried out this attack are solely to blame and must be the subject of vilification from everybody, from all faiths in all of our societies."

Exactly right. IF the leftists across the world continue to blame everything except Islam for the violence we will be overrun in time by those who shout Islam.

3. It never ends until good people say enough. France is in free-fall. You cant look away.

Wait for it...

23. France and Britain seem to create a lot of jihadis.

Britain had a policy of giving asylum to muslim fundies and letting them stir up trouble overseas.

Of course both France and Britain led the way in toppling Gadaffi which took the lid off North Africa and allowed a weapons and fighter pipeline to spread right over to Syria.

They then supported the Syrian rebels which morphed into ISIS, which we then had to bomb. Which then promised retaliation.

Of course what's needed now is to lock down Europe in a police state and send more troops to the Middle East in a permanent war

.

Somehow I am sure this is all Bush's fault...

9. wow, the French certainly were not prepared for any kind of attack. 10 killed and the police could not prevent it? They need to upgrade and update their security in France. The people should be concerned about their security. Of course the magazine has been creating this situation.

37. If you would bother watching real news.......like other than American claptrap....then you might understand that the attackers apparently attacked with trained military precision. It was an assassination.....very well planned and trained for. Of course American news is making it all about America as usual.

And blaming the newspaper? What the hell ever happened to freedom of speech?

Where is Fred to comment on this?

Fred Sanders (7,155 posts)
43. What precision and training do you need with assault rifles against an office of journalists?

no shit. Just because Barry and the gay pride party proclaims peace doesn't mean it is so.

58. Islam has enough track record over some 1700 years to NOT be called the religion of peace.

Millions upon millions have been massacred, brutalized, raped and forcibly converted.

Thousands of terrorist bombings, shootings, killings From attack at LAX, 9/11, 7/11, Denmark, Cyprus, Kosovo, Chechnya, Dagestan, India (Kashmir and other states), Afghanistan, Xin Jiang, Myanmar, Thailand, Bali, Mali, Nigeria, Tanzania, Sudan, Kenya and the list goes on and on.

What is funny is that people who demand minority rights and respects treat the minorities in Muslim states like shit. How are minorities treated in UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia or Pakistan? In Pakistan, minorities are constantly under threat of murder or being charged with stupid, medieval blasphemy laws and resulting in loss of life and property.

Granted that 1.7 billion Muslims are not all like that. However, it is a job for the silent majority to calm the crazies amongst them which rarely happens. Surely a bunch of people knew this attack was going to happen and who was going to carry it out - yet, no one tipped off the authorities.

59. Yikes, some French speakers on twitter are cheering this. Not sure if trolls or actual apologists.

Probably muslims who moved to France... or DUmpmonkies...

1. For those not in the know This is the magazine that was bombed about 4 years ago for putting a pic of Prophet Muhammad (sp?) on the cover as a cartoon.

2. The magazine is like a sophisticated CRACKED or MAD Magazine, with a socio-political bent. The Europeans are not as squeamish as we are when it comes to profiling, or denying people entry to their country based solely upon ethnicity. Stand by for some more Muslim push-back.

52. Oh, those poor French. You know, maybe if France hadn't invaded and occupied parts of North Africa (Algeria and Morocco) and the Middle East (Lebanon and Syria), they might not be 'under attack from Muslims' now, ya think?

Europe's fault.

50. Don't pretend that's what happened here because that's complete bullshit. This was done specifically because some find the concept of freedom of the press too much freedom for them to deal with. There is no larger agenda here - just scum who can't handle the concept of freedom.

36. Saddam, Gadaffi and Assad kept a lid on the crazies. Western governments supported the extremists. You can go to the root of the problem and stop supporting and funding the extremists...or we can continue to support them with one hand and get attacked by them on the other. It's a self-feeding conflict. Do we want to be in a police state and permanent war or do we want to get to the root of why this is happening more and more?

Let's see... Barry supported the overthrow of Gadaffi and Assad... is it Barry's fault?

12. The right wing crackdown and investigation will have severe after effects. Since its a terrorist attack, the security forces might be especially brutal in extracting information which can only hurt any peace or integration. By continuing to silence those who mock the Prophet, Muslims are enforcing their own laws

.

Here is the problem in a nutshell. You ****ing idiots refuse to see the problem for what it really is. You call it anything but what it really is and that ties our hands in actually dealing with the rel problem. See this next post:

77. These aren't "Muslims." These are extremist nuts. They're no more "Muslim" than the idiots who murder abortion providing doctors are "Christian." The sad thing is that many people who are Muslim will have to live in fear of being a target of revenge because they will be tainted by these assholes' conduct.

96. Sorry, sell your bigotry to someone else. Blaming a whole religion billions have faith in - whether it's Christianity or Islam, for these terrorist acts is like blaming you yourself for the slaughter of hundreds of thousands of Iraqi's because of what Cheney and Bush did while in gov't. It's stupid, and unfair.

100. How long before Greenwald prints his column "explaining" how France brought this attack on themselves because of their ME policy? (and yes, if he said that for Ottawa, he has to say that here)

Your king Barry Soetoro had a big hand in creating ISIS and toppling governments during the Arab Spring also.

Been watching Hayden bullshitting on Newsmax (Hayworth's program, who was also busily blowjobbing Christie before he go onto the Paris attack). 

Hayden was of course using at a vehicle to justify and expand all the activities the NSA had ever done pre-Snowden and ask for more power, the problem with his argument is that the "We all share the same values, just trust us," falls apart because the senior intelligence community in the US has a long and sustained track record of lying their asses off to anyone who is supposed to be holding them accountable, so no, Mikey, they don't. 

Hayden also threw in a dig at the French about how much better the US is at assimilation of its Muslim minority, however he conveniently failed to mention that proportion of real ethnic Muslims in the US is a much smaller slice of the population than it is in France or even the UK.

The lowest common denominator of leftist thought.

True to form.  The backhanded slap at bUshItLerMcChiMpyCheNy, as a (D)Umper thread devolves into what they all do.  You know, you Amoebas keep mentioning this whole "blaming entire religions" narrative like you don't really believe it.

If you just give them another 1300 years, I'm sure they'll join the 18th Century, by then.

The sad thing is that many people who are Muslim will have to live in fear of being a target of revenge because they will be tainted by these assholes' conduct.

The difference here is that there is nothing in Christian doctrine that advocates killing, rape and force conversion to Christianity. The same cannot be said of Islam. The crusades and the inquisition was not condoned by the teachings of Jesus Christ so those actions shouldn't be laid at the feet of Christianity. However, the Mohammedan's actions can be attributed directly to their unholy book. They are acting within the teachings of their prophet.

More workplace violence.

nadin warned us about this when the assault weapons ban was allowed to expire.

You're a real clueless one aren't you? (Rhetorical question I know) 107K posts and you still don't have the slightest idea of what the entire world is up against in regards to radical Islam.

“We’ve avenged the honor of the prophet!” the killers shouted, according to witnesses who spoke to Sky News. Other witnesses said the men shouted "Allahu Akbar," Arabic for "God is great." The gunmen spoke French without any accent, according to Le Monde.

Geezuz.

They're no more "Muslim" than the idiots who murder abortion providing doctors are "Christian."

There's of course no justification for either, but how many abortion profiteers have been murdered, as compared with victims of terrorism?

Like one every 14, 15 years, something like that?

But the primitives make it sound as if abortion profiteers are gunned down all the time, even more than convenience store clerks.

There's no comparison.

Sorry. If Ted Cruz would have warned this would happen, the DUmp would have been all over his ass.

Oh, wait...

GO TO HELL, DUmpf**ks... blood is partially on YOUR hands on this one.

In the meantime, it may amuse you that I did the (kinda) official translation English translation for one of his most famous series of cartoons, ten in all. Here is one of them.

The DUmmies are very upset about this attack.

Fox News wasn't the target, and that upsets the DUmmies.

And yet, Christians DO get blamed for nearly every problem facing the world today.

All muslims are extremist nuts.

The ones who aren't murdering civilized people are cheering the ones who do.
