Islam demands revenge for slandering the good name of the prophet.
I just saw a report on CBS TV morning show about this Paris attack. Not one mention was made of the word Muslim. It was also called a 'random' attack by the newscaster.

Can the press be any more biased? I don't think so.

That's a load of crap. Western Civilization is made up of a multitude people following many and no religions . These terrorists have nothing whatsoever to do with any religion.

There are a lot of weapons laying around in the US and like any country, there more than enough mentally unstable people to pick them up.

But Islam is something completely different. You can see that right? They are taught from childhood that killing an infidel (that means you and me) is good and a ticket to heaven.

Nope, they're done this time. They did this to themselves.

Either that or completely uninformed. Random? The same office has been attacked before.
And when they get into discussion on motive, the Islam connection with the cartoons is going to be unavoidable.

You have your issues with Christianity and maybe for good reason, but don't deny the facts. You live under the umbrella of human rights and fair play based on Christianity. That is the fact. If you doubt it pick up a history book.

According to both the Quran and the Hadith, blasphemy is punishable by death.
Only an Islamist or a Muslim apologist will deny that this has nothing to do with Islam.

And we wonder why Islam is not compatible with the western democracy!

The Qur'an:

Qur'an (33:57) - "Lo! those who malign Allah and His messenger, Allah hath cursed them in this world and the Hereafter, and hath prepared for them the doom of the disdained"

Qur'an (33:61) - [continues from above] "Accursed, they will be seized wherever found and slain with a (fierce) slaughter."

Qur'an (6:93) - "Who can be more wicked than one who inventeth a lie against Allah?" If the death penalty is prescribed for lesser crime, then it stands to reason that it should be imposed for the most "wicked".

From the Hadith:

Bukhari (59:369) - This recounts the murder of Ka'b bin al-Ashraf, a Jewish poet who wrote verses about Muslims that Muhammad found insulting. He asked his followers, 'Who will rid me of this man?' and several volunteered. al-Ashraf was stabbed to death while fighting for his life.

Bukhari (4:241) - Those who mocked Muhammad at Mecca were killed after he had retaken the city and asserted his authority.


It is a sad sad day for western democracy that the only newspaper (that I found) that has dared to publish the cartoons is an Indian newspaper.

It's becoming an issue of survival now. Screw racism. The current news headlines all speak for themselves.

Are these the same "peaceful" people that the libs want to release from Gitmo? The problem is that idiots dismiss daily occurances and facts as "isolated incidences"!
