The concept of Free Speech is laughable in relation to some religions, which in themselves are ridiculas concepts of social control.

Don't know it's an Islamic Terrorist group yet.

But the odds on it not being wouldn't be very favourable.

Just shows how we are ALL very vulnerable to atrocity.

The French are active participants in the military action against ISIS. The extremists would consider the attack in France to be part of a wider campaign.

This is a copy/paste from bbc

The radical Islamic State group threatened to attack France minutes before Hebdo tweeted a satirical cartoon of the extremist group's leader giving New Year's wishes, AP says.

The publication named the Prophet Muhammed as it's editor in Chief as a spoof comment in 2011.

Recently they have published articles critical of Islam.

Freedom of speech is a fundamental freedom in the West. Similarly, no one has the right not to be offended of their beliefs questioned.

12 dead... 10 journalists plus 2 policeman... the policeman who was "executed" is gruesome....

french tv saying 4 attackers... 3 plus a driver... 2 had AK's and 1 had a Rocket Launcher... god only knows what the carnage would have been if they had managed to use that.....

on the escape, they managed to hijack an innocent public members car and that where the police lost them....

the ironic thing is that the magazine probably went after Catholicism and Judeaism as much as it did Islam and IS.....

the fact they were going after people by name and asking who and where there were is as chilling....

All non Muslim's should also not accept that these murdering extremists represent Islam.

Think back to early DEC with that court case in the uk.

A few lads returned from Syria thinking 'Oh shit, this isnt what we thought' the parents shipped them to the police, taken to court, 8 years. The parents of one said 'they wished they kept their mouths shut'.

which if they're intent on hiding their extremist beliefs means they will just be one of the congregation..

"I see it like football hoolies.

A good analogy.

The problem with extremists is that they believe that their _iew on whatever they follow is valid.

It is not until the actual validity of their _iew is questioned and then dismantled by more moderate versions of their own beliefs that extremism is conquered.

If a complete outsider tries to do it, it is seen as an attack on their whole belief system. It can perversely have the opposite effect by driving moderates towards extremism.

Moderates hold the key to dismantling the validity that is the core for these extremists to justify their criminal acts.

Moderates are proactively trying, but they must do more.

The trouble with being an apologist for the right wing is you get stuck in that rut and fail to see the facts in front of you (I've been there myself).

No other religion attracts the volume of extremists willing to go to any lengths like Islam does.

It's a fundamentally trouble one dating back longer than Christianity without there modernists revisions... It has the chinks that extremists love to get their finger nails into and pull!.

The Qur'an needs a re-right just like the old testament had to.

Until Islam examines itself and lays to bed some fundamental prejudices of their own we will be here slagging them off/apologising (depending on your personal tendencies) forever.

" the french far right parties are already popular in many regions ....just watch their popularity rise even more now .... U gotta feel for the normal muslims who merely want to live a decent life in france, minding their own business.... Seems to me these nutjobs hurt their own people in the name of their own religion.... I just dont get it....maybe im just a bit thick.... "

The Moderate Muslims are the first victims of what is after all really a Muslim civil war

Do you think Christians must look at Christianity and wonder why their attracting so many crazy people?

Very rare compared to muslims though isn't it. "

President George Bush, a born again Christian, said that God had told him to invade Afghanistan and Iraq.

How do you think Muslims feel when they hear a Christian World leader saying things like that?

Do you have any idea of how many Muslims have died as a result of his decision?

Attacking, invading or killing in the name of one's 'God' is not unique to Islam.

We must isolate the extremists not the religion.

Yes and you don't get buhdists doing this sort of thing, its just muslims.

Buddhist monks have reportedly been murdering Muslims in Myanmar.

Buddhist mobs have been murdering muslims in sectarian attacks in Burma.

Open your eyes. The problem is extremists not Islam, Christianity, Buddhists or any other religion.

Religions just provide extremists with an excuse."

The West has stirred up a hell of a hornets' nest by the actions taken post 9/11. Sadly we continue to see the effects to this day.

It is unclear where the madness will end.

Are we locked into a Christian v Muslim war? Nostradamus predicted such. A 27 year war, culminating in nuclear armageddon. I could never believe it possible. Since 9/11 though, I can see it growing an ever more real possibility

Simple your stand against Islam extremism is always to apologise for the tiny minority and to always and rightly point out that it's not the majority of Muslims, it's a noble stance against the voices of the right wing that would take us down a dark path. But at the same time it just stops you seeing the facts for what they are.

without being racist or prejudiced Islam needs to confront it's own prejudices it's own attitude to women, children, marriages the little whiffs of bigotry that let the extremism take hold, the simple fact is Islam is generating an exorbitant amount of extremists, way more than other religions and this stems from its own lack of moving with the times.

So it's either sheer bad luck Islam attracts nut jobs or its generating them, either way it's intolerable and something has to change.

Considering the actions of certain states of the West in the Middle East during the last 15 years or so, I don't think it is any surprise that some Muslims have become radicalised.

Perhaps if the boot had been on the other foot and the West had been turned upside down, losing family members and friends, then the reaction of some would also have been violent.

Oh here we go. Regardless of the actions of the 'West' in the 'Middle East' there are a significant number of Muslims that want a world wide Islamic State - a Caliphate. Some even want Sharia Law here.

The values of the west is what they [the gunmen] hate'. To put it in a phrase, it's not what Western liberals don't like and can't defend about their own system, but what they do like about it and must defend: its emancipated women, its scientific inquiry, its separation of religion from the state. Loose talk about chickens coming home to roost is garbage.

The fact that you later refer to Muslims as "the gunmen" says it all. Small mindedness and prejudice are where these ideas come from. Extremists represent nothing but extremism. It doesnt matter what religion or part of the world they hail from, and they are present in every faith, political party and nation.

It has nothing to do with Islam, the religion. It is the outgrowth of a radical militant political anti-American anti-Isreal movement that started in the 70's as a reaction against the occupation of Palestine by Isreal and America (the Isreali military is basically a wing of the American military) and as a reaction to the frustration of trying to liberate the people of the middle east from dictators who were put in place by CIA backed coups and kept in place by western funding. At least that's my understanding of it.

The bible is at least as bloody, immoral, and war mongering as the koran imo

"Moses was angry with the officers of the army, the captains of thousands and the captains of hundreds, who had come from service in the war. And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive? Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, spare for yourselves" Numbers 31:15 - 19

Following the tragic events in Paris today, I feel compelled to provide a few thoughts.

The free expression of what we believe in or what we feel is central to any civilised society. To attack any opinion verbally either with argument or with satire is and must remain a central tenet of a free society. However, to react to that criticism with an act of savage violence is an attack on all of our freedoms, both as civilised human beings and as western Europeans. We do not ask for violence for our thoughts. We do not deserve violence for our society’s _iews. It is easy to hide behind the barriers of what we consider our national borders. Such evil does not recognise borders, nor can our borders hold back such evil. We therefore must share the grief and the responsibility to defend ourselves with our European partners.

My thoughts and prayers are with those who have died, their families and the injured.

First you suggest I'm an apologist for the right wing then for Islamic extremists and now for islam.

Let me spell it out to you.

The main difference between me and you is that you want to blame the whole of Islam whereas I want to blame the extremists.

Islam is made up of over 1.5 billion people. ISIS doesn't have enough extremists fighters to fill your average premier league football stadium!

I grew up Christian and would probably describe myself if pushed as agnostic. I have never had any links to Islam.

Logic and reason are enough for me to understand that a very small number of people (relatively) with extreme _iews who happen to be Muslim do not represent 1.5 Billion mainly happy normal peace loving individuals who just want to raise their kids in a safe world.

If you're argument has merit why aren't all 1.5 Billion radicalised?

The trouble with being an apologist for the right wing is you get.....

Sexy-bum, please explain this statement if you in any way are referring to me. You've written it in response to one of my posts.

On face value I find it offensive.

..

Simple your stand against Islam extremism is always to apologise for the tiny minority and to always and rightly point out that it's not the majority of Muslims, it's a noble stance against the voices of the right wing that would take us down a dark path. But at the same time it just stops you seeing the facts for what they are.

without being racist or prejudiced Islam needs to confront it's own prejudices it's own attitude to women, children, marriages the little whiffs of bigotry that let the extremism take hold, the simple fact is Islam is generating an exorbitant amount of extremists, way more than other religions and this stems from its own lack of moving with the times.

So it's either sheer bad luck Islam attracts nut jobs or its generating them, either way it's intolerable and something has to change.

It was in no way meant to offend you. But if it does it does!

I have NEVER apologised for any minority of Islam extremists, I have ALWAYS completely condemned them. To state or suggest otherwise is a lie.

I have NEVER been an apologist for the right wing. To suggest or state otherwise is a lie.

You either lack the intelligence to comprehend and counter with reasoned debate what has been clearly written or you are choosing to mislead.

It may be the former but I suspect it to be the latter.

..As they say whatever!.

I've asked you three times why it is that Islam attracts the vast amount of extremists but you never seem to want to answer but merely to apologise for the vast majority of non extremist Muslims.

I don't want an apology I want an explanation on why Islam produces so many fundamental nutjobs, don't comeback with the right wing Christian burning down an abortion clinic in Missouri or some African Christian dictator. There are nutjob Christians we all know that but right now at this moment nobody in Paris is feared for going for an abortion, there feared for writing about freedoms we've had for a few hundred years, Muslims in Syria are feared for being genocidaly wiped from the earth, journalists in Iraq and Egypt are feared for years of internment or beheadings and it's no good saying there not Muslims or islamists because they are.. They run into buildings shouting Allah Akbar, they want an Islamic state, they want sharia law.... Islam is turning out alot of right whackos who are murdering people over free speech, cartoons and blasphemy and I want to know why and how we best fix it because I don't want to be having this argument when they've nuked London.

"

Fair point.

Of course Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, and lots of other religions have a few nutters, but these days Islam seems to have the monopoly on world class nutters.

Islamic nutters now hold the world records and gold medals for crashing planes into buildings, shooting teenage girls, kidnapping teenage girls, blowing up trains, blowing up buses, beheadings, crucifixions, butchering schoolkids, and now seem to be moving on into such team events as taking over countries and the genocide of all opposing religions.

They also have a brilliant propaganda machine stacked high with gullible brainless liberals who will try to justify everything they do in the name of diversity and because the western powers bumped off a handfull of their nutters in chief.

It's time to wake up and smell the coffee. There are hundreds of thousands of active nutters in the world and for every active nutter there are ten passive nutters, and many of them are among us. SCARY!!!!!

First you suggest I'm an apologist for the right wing then for Islamic extremists and now for islam.

Let me spell it out to you.

The main difference between me and you is that you want to blame the whole of Islam whereas I want to blame the extremists.

Islam is made up of over 1.5 billion people. ISIS doesn't have enough extremists fighters to fill your average premier league football stadium!

I grew up Christian and would probably describe myself if pushed as agnostic. I have never had any links to Islam.

Logic and reason are enough for me to understand that a very small number of people (relatively) with extreme _iews who happen to be Muslim do not represent 1.5 Billion mainly happy normal peace loving individuals who just want to raise their kids in a safe world.

If you're argument has merit why aren't all 1.5 Billion radicalised?

Maybe it's a little more complex than 'let's blame the Koran'.

You always appear to respond with a measured, considered, appropriate and correct response. We agree, the world is a very big place and people of Muslim faith make up a sizeable chunk of the worlds population. The extremists are a tiny minority but a minority that achieve maximum publicity.

The radicalisation of this tiny minority of nut cases needs to be tackled carefully because an all out attack on everything Islam will only benefit the extremists whose very cause is to create division.

Fair point, but this is a great opportunity for the Muslim community to stand up and nail their colours to the mast.

Say 'not in our name' and that they will root out these individuals.

Interestingly, on Sky news just now, following on from the Danish cartoon incident where the prophet was depicted pictorially a survey of British Muslims found that 65% of them felt that it should be a criminal offence to 'insult' Islam or the Prophet.

In December we went to The Gambia - third world African country ( no Ebola there ).

What I found was a country where they are 75% Muslim - 20% Christian and 5% "other"

What I found interesting is how that country all gets on together - black - white - bird watchers - all inclusive cheapie people - rich - poor etc - they all just get on with life. Together - peacefully.

To be honest - I learnt more about that religion from the locals - talking about Islam - seeing them pray - hearing the call to prayer - and learning that Allah ackbah is not "scary" or threatening - just simply - god is great.

What's happened today is the extrem end of their religious followers - bit like us Christians and the kkk.

If The Gambia can all get on together respectful of each others culture and beliefs - why can't we in "the first world"?

You may want to re look at some of them countries.

The Somalians have an issue with the Kenyans because they sent troops into Somalia - so have we by the way - that's "uoset" the Somalis so they retaliated by hitting the tourist areas thus hurting Kenya financially.

Kenyans are pretty good people and on the whole welcoming to "us".

I would also suggest lybria is friendly to "us" too but I'm not as sure of my footing there

Christians have been know to do similar things as well. Before 9/11 the biggest terrorist attach in the US was the Oklahoma bombing. The guy who did that was Christian with strong links to extreme right wing fundamentalist Christian groups.

There are fundamentalist Hindu groups in India that repeatedly attack both Christians and Muslims.

There are even extreme atheist groups that call for the violent over through of all religions.

What all these groups have in common is that they are extremist and intolerant of other belief systems.

That's part of the plan. The more they can get normal people to be islamophobic the more isolated the Muslim community will feel and the more open they are to being influenced by extremist _iews.

"Considering the actions of certain states of the West in the Middle East during the last 15 years or so, I don't think it is any surprise that some Muslims have become radicalised.

Perhaps if the boot had been on the other foot and the West had been turned upside down, losing family members and friends, then the reaction of some would also have been violent."

"Seems a great way to take attention off the sex scandals of royals and war crimes of presidents and ex prime ministers , very professional killings stinks of CIA , also who ever let this so called anger invoking comic strips get published need there head read talk about playing into hands "

I disagree with your conspiracy theory and find it equally distasteful to those who want to blame the whole of Islam.

Radical extremists are the problem here. They should not be helped by us validating their cause by blaming their wider religion or by blaming someone else.

The responsibility lies solely with these despicable individuals who are murderers.

The sooner everybody else isolates them, their backers and dismantles any validation that they feel they have from a cause the better.

"This outrage is really an attack on us all. For all of us on Fab, don't think our freedoms to live as we see fit are not under threat, (ok maybe somewhere down the line) if we allow the erosion of free speech.

We should all buy the next copy of Charlie Hebdo, if there is one, and I really hope there is, even if we don't speak French!.

Altogether now.

The prophet Mohammed is a tit!

Although I'm tempted to join you on this occasion to prove the point that free speech can not be killed by fear I'm not going to. I don't believe in belittling peoples beliefs, I've never done it in the past and I don't believe now is the time to start.

However I absolutely will defend YOUR right to say it."

Good being offended is not like being beheaded with a penknife or shot with a Kalashnikov or burnt alive in your building after a planes been flown into it.

Timothy McVeigh certainly didn't blow up the Oklahoma building for god or Christianity he was against federal government, although he always denied it was him anyhow.

My point about the old and new testament was that the new one with all the revisions of it since that the CofE use certainly don't contain anything like the strangulating repressive language of the new or the Qur'an and it's just my opinion that when you look at the Qur'an and new testaments and see how it holds the Jews and the Muslims you can see where the extremism comes from and it isn't some cia fucking plot, it's plane old control of the masses and while they continue to push 3 times a day payer, kosher meat, burkas, non abortion, creationism and every other myth that must be followed absolutely to be a good "whatever" you will always have extremism and why you don't get CofE extremists decapitating journalists in the name of York minster!.

To keep denying the problem with the Qur'an and Islam and the new testament! and allow driving force of extremism will only end one way. And let's cut the bullshit with the ira it's main driving force was republicanism they had highly committed members to but they certainly didn't take the extremes of islamists with suicide missions and mass slaughter of children and at the end of the day there was a reasonable resolution with self determination that didn't involve returning the population back 700 years... Can you say the same for islamists!.

You keep up your non offending persona and see how far it gets you. Me I'll keep on offending as its not my God given right! but one given to me legally by mandate of the people.

Muslim Public Affairs Committee spokesperson Asghar Bukhari on Sly News now saying the cartoons should not be shown and although he doesn't support the murder of the journalists they shouldn't have shown the cartoon.

He says free speech, when it comes to Islam, should have limits.

Poll suggests majority of British Muslims think graphical detection of the prophet, and/or satire of Islam should be a criminal offence. Poll conducted after Danish cartoon fiasco so historic.

So yes, the gunmen are an extreme minority, however, there is a sliding scale or spectrum of sympathy or justification for what they did.

There should be a without conditions condemnation. We live in the west, here we have freedom of speech. If you don't like it there are countries where there isn't freedom of expression and moreover Sharia courts. If that is more compatible with your belief system up sticks and go. Good luck with no benefits system and no NHS though.

I'm not here to argue today. I think all who believe in freedom and the right to free speech should speak as one today and say that this sort of action is unacceptable. Nothing more and nothing less is appropriate at this time. That's all I'm going to say.
