I've read your comments and found them wanting.

 

The 'issue at hand' is  not what you decide you want to focus on, while ignoring any other point of view. The way you present things is just your opinion. You don't get to dictate what other posters 'need' to focus on.

 

Demands are not necessarily imply an ordered list presented to the public. The demand, in this case, is to refrain from blasphemy when it comes to Islam. If you imagine caving in on this will make everything alright and that there will be no more 'demands' of this sort, we'll have to disagree.

 

You post that demands can be raised, but it does not mean that they will be accepted. And yet, your posts on this topic are all basically supportive of caving in to such a demand.

 

The trouble with your logic, IMO, is that you treat the religious violence involved as a given (something that needs to be accepted). Your posts are essentially about appeasement, in the form of placing the blame on parties who did not kill anyone. Sure, the magazine editors had a choice. So did the murderers who killed these people. You focus solely on the former, while apparently giving the latter a free pass.

 

Kinda doubt most Muslims worldwide, or even in France, subscribe or follow this magazine. Further, they are not obliged to read it, see the cartoons and so on. And yet, violence and death are offered. Go figure.

Stop putting words in my mouth!!! Please quote where I said that I blame only Hebdo for what happened! I never said that!

 

By the way, you’re not one hair better because you’re trying to force your point of view onto me!  
 

Again, lives of people more important than mocking a religion!

 

History has shown that every time they mock the prophet there’s an attack afterwards and Hebdo is explicitly stated as the reason for the attack. So again, you play with fire and you get burned. That’s the facts! Whether you want to believe that is up to you!

    So if your Armenian it's time to get out of Dodge. Let's hope the French have had it with these 10 % of the population and vote La-Pen this time. 

  • What they are pushing for is for France to adopt a blasphemy law. You can always submit to the Muslim World, today for cartoons, tomorrow for gender equality,  may girls sit next to boys in class

Basically, you give the killers are free pass, saying 'it is what it is'. The remedy you prescribe is self-placed censorship, limiting  civil rights and freedoms. That's pretty much what people like the killers want ....

Nope, I don’t give them a free pass! For the last fricking time now:

 

Every time they publish a cartoon mocking the prophet people get killed and they cite Hebdo’s cartoon as the reason for the attack! So, people get killed because of their cartoons, that’s the FACTS! 
 

Ergo, if you stop mocking their prophet people will stop getting killed because of these cartoons. 
 

It’s that simple!

The people that need to change are the people that are cutting peoples heads off and not the people drawing cartoons, it is not difficult.

No words were put in your mouth - you repeatedly ask that posters focus solely on the magazine's 'responsibility'. I'm not 'forcing' anything - addressed your points already several times, and did not deny other points of view.

 

This is not about 'mocking religion'. It's about freedom of speech. Some would say it's a fine principal, and maybe one which is ought to be fought for, rather than tossed aside as per the wishes of religious nutters.

 

There were attacks associated with Islamic/Islamist/whatever perpetrators before that, and on other grounds. Maybe it's best just to accept their wishes on all things and live happily ever after?

Giving a free pass as in treating this religious violence as something that needs to be accommodated, not fought against or resisted.

 

The killed before. They killed because of other 'provocations' (or whatever). It's not just about the cartoons.

Islam is Christianity done right.  Stoning homosexuals, no graven images, beating your wife and abusing children, wearing a hijab just like the Virgin Mary.  They are the perfect Christians.

French media reports that the Tunisian immigrant has been tested positive for covid-19. His medical condition doesn’t allow him to be auditioned by French police.

 

He had been in contact with another Tunisian, with residence in Nice, the day prior to the attack.

 

Another Tunisian immigrant travelling with the attacker since Lampedusa has been arrested in Nice.

Of what? The current terrorism the west is witnessing?two wrongs don,t make a right.they were given their independence so have no furthur right of residence in the former colonies homelands,as for refugees " rights"are you referring to the hague convention ? which was cobbled together by the west in response to its lack of action against russia who were getting lairy colonising eastern european countries,that anyone fleeing russia would be given refuge in the first safe country they set foot it,not trekking thousands of miles across europe because of the all inclusive welfare they recieve at uk citizens expense.,oh and by the way the iron curtain dosen,t exist now so perhaps the outdated hague convention should be rescinded,like they rescinded laws which sent kids to austrailia for stealing a loaf of bread.

Two men, aged 18, a Russian of Chechen origin and a Frenchman, and a young woman aged 17, were arrested and taken into police custody on Tuesday morning.
In total, ten people are now indicted in this case.

The two men are suspected of having exchanged messages with the assailant, Abdullakh Anzorov, according to a source familiar with the matter, via a discussion group in couriers.
The Russian of Chechen origin, Ismail G., was born in Grozny, in the Russian republic of Chechnya, in 2002, and arrived in France in 2003, according to declarations of his parents, to AFP.

The father and mother said they were questioned by counterterrorism investigators. They claimed that their son was "innocent" and that he "regretted" the murder of Samuel Paty.

The mother's home, where Ismail G. lived, was searched, according to her.

The 17-year-old is suspected of having been in contact with one of the two men, according to the same source close to the file.

 

And same goes with the fatwa against Samuel PATY, if not worse.

This is the main Muslim Brotherhood argument to promote its Islamist political salafi agenda among the Muslim Diaspora and Muslim population in the West. 

And what about Vienna terror attack?

We - in France - removed crucifix from our classrooms - submission to Muslim Brotherhood isn't an option. 

 

Removal of Crucifix in French schools was implemented after new law from 1905 separating State and Church through political influx of French socialist Emil Combes.

 

Muslim brotherhood started in Egypt in the early 1930’s.

 

It’s not yet proven by French police that the Tunisian attacker was a member of the Muslim Brotherhood.

The problem isn't the terrorist, the problem is the rampant Islamization of western societie, sharia and blasphemy codes, etc..

France and UK have allowed and experienced some 150 years of colonial immigration into their own lands.

All other EU countries have a history of recent immigration.

 

There’s no link between colonial migration and radicalisation.

Islamism teaches us that demography makes history ,  "we know that the birth rate encouraged by our religion will slowly but surely change the sociological, cultural and civilizational situation in France. We care about it as much as we care about the advantageous policy of family reunification and the allowances that God maintains."
