12 dead in attack on Paris newspaper; France goes on alert

I don't see any other cartoons being posted, perhaps there aren't any.
Un-level playing fields, as to how many bite the dust from either side if it is about equal then it would appear to be a fair fight. No comments from either of you on Israel jailing cartoon makers? Had France done the same they 'journalists' would still have pencil in hand.
Probably about the same as it feels to worship a god so weak he can't work his will without the government to pass laws for him.Hey, Mohammad:
Is that the first Christian to enter Muslim territory, the whole Mid-East since God had Rome escort the Jews to their new home. (something they are willing to 'correct God' on. If God had Muslims doing strange things in cartoons I can only immagine (with horror) what Jews are telling God to do for them)
Was that a reference to the Torah's 600+ morality laws? Ballsy.
Then no group should be concerned about any of it right, or get any special privileges. Now if your group numbers 1.B people should you be entitled to more of the earth's bounty than a group that numbers about 15M on a good day?
If that were the whole deal there would be mass suicides starting at about the age of 20. Part of the attraction of belonging to any group id a sense of belonging to a 'body' that can do a lot more than any individual can. At a lower level spots fans all have their favorite teams and if 'pro-sports' was banned all sport fans would join together to protest it's demise. Religion can and does play of instarlling fear as a control device. The Bible teaches universal salvation, if you were concieved in this world that is all that is required for to to have that same identity when the next phase begins. The RCC and other Churches rake in billion every year by promoting that the only way into that next level is to be a part of that 'special group' and until then they also deserve a good portion of your money to boot.
The 'rewards' in this life for being a visible part of the most powerful group (morality not being the standard for gaining power but the gauge for what is done after power if gained. The Christian West is trying very hard to hold onto somethging when they are no longer the majority. The biggest selling point is imagined persecutions based on actions of Christians over the last 1,000 years in how they have dealt with non-Christians. If they didn't kill us in mass numbers that already makes them more moral than we have ever been when dealing with them.

I certainly do. Odd as hell. But I've come to expect as much from the peasant press. It's also funny that you don't think it's funny. Is there something wrong with you? A country desperate to escape its euro binds speaks to the Ruskies and the next week a terrible tragedy materializes. Just a coincidence I guess. Funny how that happens so frequently these days. In a case like this it is best to keep a sence of humour if one wishes to avoid self radicalization.
Doing the hokey-cokey won't defeat terror, Dave: RICHARD LITTLEJOHN says it is time Britain stopped being such a soft touch

Call me an old cynic, but why were all those ‘world leaders’ marching through Paris on Sunday? Naturally, the French wanted to vent their grief, commemorate their dead and publicly demonstrate their defiance.
What, however, were all those foreign presidents and prime ministers doing there? Showing solidarity is one thing, but this smacked of a synchronised selfie.
They looked as if they were about to break in to the hokey-cokey.

David Cameron managed to nab pole position, linking arms with the attractive blonde woman who runs Denmark.
He does, of course, have previous with Helle Thorning-Schmidt, having muscled his way into a photograph she was taking of herself and Barack Obama at Nelson Mandela’s memorial service.
Call Me Dave might have got away with one intimate photo draped around a fit blonde. Two starts to look like stalking, especially when it’s the same bird.
I wouldn’t be surprised to discover that SamCam had a quiet word in his shell-like when he got back to No 10, and he was forced to spend the night in the spare room.
The only foreign dignitary who had genuine reason to be on the march was the Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu. Jews were deliberately targeted by the terrorists in Paris, and Israel is on the frontline of the global jihad.
It was curious, to say the least, to spot the Palestinian leader in the line-up. Mahmoud Abbas may preach peace, but the Palestinian territories are a haven and a breeding ground for terrorists who share the hardline beliefs of those maniacs who murdered 17 people in France.
In a bold and welcome intervention, Culture Secretary Sajid Javid, Britain's first Tory Muslim MP, said: ‘There is no getting away from the fact that the people carrying out these acts call themselves Muslim'
As for all those self-important EU leaders, it is their suicidal approach to mass immigration, their beloved human rights laws and their craven appeasement of firebrand preachers of hate which allows Islamist terrorism to flourish in the West.
Just as I predicted on Friday, we have been told repeatedly that these atrocities are ‘nothing to do with Islam’.
It was a couple of days before Cameron could even bring himself to utter the phrase ‘Islamist terrorists’.
It took one of Cameron’s ministers, Sajid Javid, himself a Muslim, to set the record straight. In a bold and welcome intervention, Javid said: ‘There is no getting away from the fact that the people carrying out these acts call themselves Muslim.
‘The lazy answer from people out there would be to say that this has got nothing to do with Islam and Muslims and that should end the debate. That would be lazy and wrong. You can’t get away from the fact that these people are using Islam . . . as their tool to carry out their horrible activities.’
Fear of being accused of ‘Islamophobia’ has prevented the authorities in Britain, at least, from robustly confronting the cancer in our midst.
Pledge: David Cameron has promised to ramp up internet surveillance powers to prevent terrorists from plotting atrocities online
Cameron claims we must rigorously defend freedom of speech, but in the next breath he monsters Nigel Farage for telling the truth about the human rights racket, uncontrolled immigration and the disastrous pursuit of multi-culturalism.
Just as I predicted, too, the Funny People were straight out of the blocks demanding new powers to trawl through our private emails and phone calls.

To be honest, I assumed they were doing it already. Isn’t that what GCHQ at Cheltenham’s for?
Look, I’m all for giving the security services the tools they need to track and capture terrorists. But we should be wary of any attempt to curtail our freedoms in the name of keeping us ‘safe’. The Government historically has been reluctant to use the powers it has already.
Here’s the proof, in a story you may have missed in the blanket coverage of the French attacks.
On Friday, Abu Hamza — aka Captain Hook — was sentenced by a judge in New York to life in a supermax prison for terrorist activities. He has been stripped of his hooks and he will die in jail.
The only concession the Americans have made to his human rights is to replace one of his hooks with a ‘spork’ — a spoon and fork combination, which will make it easier for him to eat his prison food.
I’d imagine he will find life in a U.S. supermax penitentiary rather less comfortable than the time he served behind bars in this country.
When he was in Belmarsh Prison, South London, Hamza was provided with a personal chiropodist to cut his toenails. What’s the worst job you’ve ever had?
In the States he gets a spork, in Britain he got regular pedicures.
Hook was on the radar long before 9/11. His Finsbury Park mosque was a hotbed of hate preaching and a recruiting office for young jihadis, including the shoe bomber Richard Reid. It turns out, too, that there are also links between Finsbury Park and some of those responsible for the French slaughter last week.
Yet the authorities let him off the hook, so to speak, for years on end. Even when moderate Muslims, appalled at his activities, kicked him out of the mosque, the Met closed roads and gave him a police escort so he could carry on spewing his vile sermons in the street.
He wasn’t arrested until 2004 — and then only in response to an extradition request from the Americans. Hook faced no home-grown charges in Britain until 2006. He managed to evade extradition for eight years.
And he is only one of thousands of foreign desperados given sanctuary in Britain. For ten years, one of the men who bombed the Paris Metro in 1995 was able to use the British courts to resist extradition to France.
Our capital city wasn’t nicknamed ‘Londonistan’ for nothing.
Even now, after major terrorist atrocities on our own soil, such as the London transport bombings and the murder of soldier Lee Rigby, we continue to roll out the red carpet for those who hate us.
Abu Hamza spewed hate and venom in Britain for years without being stopped
It has been revealed that the wife of the Al Qaeda fanatic believed to have mentored the terrorists involved in last week’s Paris massacre is living on benefits in a council house in - surprise, surprise - Leicester.
Djamel Beghal, currently awaiting trial in France, was once one of Captain Hook’s chief cronies at Finsbury Park. His wife, Sylvie, who has four children, decided to move to Britain from France because she wanted to live in a more ‘Islamic environment’.
Tells you all you need to know, really, doesn’t it? Most people in search of an ‘Islamic environment’ would look first to Saudi Arabia or Pakistan. Not Sylvie. She chose Leicester, where she was welcomed with open arms and showered with money courtesy of the mug British taxpayer.
Why wouldn’t she? Britain is a soft touch. It’s all very well MI5 wanting more powers to intercept communications, but isn’t it about time the authorities used existing laws to smash the terrorists?
We’ve got conspiracy laws, as well as legislation against ‘hate crimes’ and incitement.
The Government should repeal the appalling Human Rights Act; instruct the police and security services to close down Islamist websites; stop our prisons being used as Al Qaeda recruiting offices; shut down mosques and religious schools which foment terrorism; prosecute and deport foreign hate preachers; and lock up those fanatics with British passports.
But they won’t. So take little notice of the political posturing and pompous platitudes in Paris on Sunday.
If two million people had marched through London a fortnight ago, protesting against Islamist extremism and waving cartoons of the Prophet, the Government would have sent in the riot police and made hundreds of arrests for racially and religiously aggravated hate crimes.
The ever-vigilant golliwog squad are on patrol again.
The BBC refused to air an interview with Chaka Artwell, from Oxford, because he was wearing a ‘racist’ golly round his neck.
For the record, Mr Artwell is black and specialises in promoting black history.
You couldn’t make it up.

I don't find killing because you are over sensitive to slights or negative critiques against your prophet as funny. A sure sign of your insecurity and lack of faith, yes. But funny, no.
