To clear it up?Okay, to clear this up. What happened in Paris was NOT a terrorist attack.
Really?
How cute.
Charlie Hebdo routinely published satire of all religions and many different ideologies. There was nothing Islamophobic about it.What happened was two muslims got fed up of the islamophobic cartoons of Charlie hebdo, and decided to attack Charlie Hebdo hq.
As for the "two muslims got fed up" - this is, in fact, false.

"Kouachi: We’re just telling you that we are the defenders of the prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and that I, Cherif Kouachi, was sent by “Al Qaeda in Yemen,” ok?
Journalist: Ok
Kouachi: And that I went there and that it’s imam Al-Awlaki that financed me.
Journalist: Ok, and how long ago was it?
Kouachi: It was a long time ago. Before he was killed. [inaudible]
Journalist: So you came back to France not long ago?
Kouachi: Oh yes, a while ago… the secret service I know them, don’t worry about it. I know very well how I was able to do things well.
Journalist: Ok, and now there is only you and your brother here?
Kouachi: That’s not your problem.
Journalist: Some people are behind you, or not?
Kouachi: That’s not your problem.
Journalist: Ok, and are you planning on killing again in the name of Allah or not?
Kouachi: Kill who?
Journalist: I don’t know. That’s what I’m asking you.
Kouachi: Did we kill any civilians in the past two days people have been looking for us?
Journalist: You killed journalists.
Kouachi: No but, did we kill any civilians? Civilians, or people during the two days you spent looking for us?
Journalist: Wait, wait, Cherif, Cherif, did you kill this morning?
Kouachi: But we are not killers. We are defenders of the prophet. We don’t kill women, we don’t kill anyone. We defend the prophet. If someone offend the prophet then there is no problem, we can kill him. But we don’t kill women. We’re not like you. You’re the ones killing the children of Muslims in Irak, in Syria, in Afghanistan. That’s you. Not us. We have honor codes in Islam.
Journalist: But right now you avenged yourself, no? You killed people?
Kouachi: We avenged ourselves exactly. You said it well. You said it yourself, we avenged ourselves."
No, i do not agree that violence was the best answer, nor were Charlie Hebdo okay for publishing the islamophobic cartoons they have. My heart goes out to those innocent workers who died because the company they worked for was ignorant. Yet, freedom of speech cannot be used as a defense for CH. They were completely disrespectful and freedom of speech should not defend such behaviour. Muslims are being attacked and abused publicly now because people are misusing the term "terrorist" sadly.

A cartoon from Charlie Hebdo.
Allow me to quote from the Qu'ran, so that you may understand what it is you are doing:
From Surat At-Tawbah (Surat 9):
29 Fight those who do not believe in Allah or in the Last Day and who do not consider unlawful what Allah and His Messenger have made unlawful and who do not adopt the religion of truth from those who were given the Scripture - [fight] until they give the jizyah willingly while they are humbled. 30 The Jews say, "Ezra is the son of Allah "; and the Christians say, "The Messiah is the son of Allah ." That is their statement from their mouths; they imitate the saying of those who disbelieved [before them]. May Allah destroy them; how are they deluded? 31 They have taken their scholars and monks as lords besides Allah , and [also] the Messiah, the son of Mary. And they were not commanded except to worship one God; there is no deity except Him. Exalted is He above whatever they associate with Him. 32 They want to extinguish the light of Allah with their mouths, but Allah refuses except to perfect His light, although the disbelievers dislike it. 33 It is He who has sent His Messenger with guidance and the religion of truth to manifest it over all religion, although they who associate others with Allah dislike it.
34 O you who have believed, indeed many of the scholars and the monks devour the wealth of people unjustly and avert [them] from the way of Allah . And those who hoard gold and silver and spend it not in the way of Allah - give them tidings of a painful punishment. 35 The Day when it will be heated in the fire of Hell and seared therewith will be their foreheads, their flanks, and their backs, [it will be said], "This is what you hoarded for yourselves, so taste what you used to hoard." 36 Indeed, the number of months with Allah is twelve [lunar] months in the register of Allah [from] the day He created the heavens and the earth; of these, four are sacred. That is the correct religion, so do not wrong yourselves during them. And fight against the disbelievers collectively as they fight against you collectively. And know that Allah is with the righteous [who fear Him].

Do you understand what you statements amount to?
Submission to Islam.
Be wary of making deals with the devil, young one.
Frankly, it is.The picture on the right showing israeli president killing palestinians was published in Sunday Times while attacks on Gaza last summer. Her author Rupert Murdoh was to apologize. Despite of Netanyahu is guilty of death of thousands palestinians, picture was considered as a manifestation of anti-Semitism.
Question: Who 'made' her apologize?
The statement is in regard to the belief that Allah does not allow non-believers to triumph over believers:The picture on the left was published in popular magazine Charlie Hebdo on the occasion of military coup in Egypt where the dictator Sisis killed thousands of people. The comment in the picture says: ”Quran turned out not to be bulletproof.” By this picture authorts showed disrespect for the killed people and holy book of islam but they weren't to apologize. So where is justice?
9:13 Would you not fight a people who broke their oaths and determined to expel the Messenger, and they had begun [the attack upon] you the first time? Do you fear them? But Allah has more right that you should fear Him, if you are [truly] believers.
6:14 Fight them; Allah will punish them by your hands and will disgrace them and give you victory over them and satisfy the breasts of a believing people
Obviously, the Egyptians weren't true believers. So it's not really anti-muslim, now is it?
*shrug*To add, should we also call the KKK terrorists, as they are people who belong to a religion and kill people (on a cross). But i guess because they are white people killing a minority, it doesn't count.
How many people have the KKK killed within the past 20 years?
How many people have chicago street gangs killed in the past 20 years?
If we want to call the KKK terrorists - fine.
Then what do we call Occupy Wall Street, #BlackLivesMatter, and the Black Panthers?
