terrorist attack in Paris

It sounds as if the editor-in-chief and the co-founder were among those killed. How devastating.

I just watched the video of the terrorists shooting the cop on the street. OMG. So awful.

The attack in France was a horrible event. But, at least the anti-Obama crowd can still find a silver lining. Is there anything you people won't politicize? It looks like I'll have to move this thread to the political forum.

To not call it a terrorist attack right away, especially after France declared it so, is insulting to our ally

Drop the FOX News / Breitbart / Limbaugh / Hannity BULLSHIT!

Here's what Obama said:

White House Condemns Paris 'Terrorist Attacks'

“Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims of this terrorist attack and the people of France”

So sick of constant right wing fabrications, untruths and spins. STOP, STOP, STOP already!!

His spokesman did not say this at first. After France had

I’m really sick of political correctness regarding the radical Islamists who are committing these terror attacks. Call them what they are - Islamic extremists who are terrorists.

Nobody argues with that definition. But, consistency would require identifying other terrorists by their religion as well.

In the words of my friend, nothing can justify the disgraceful attacks against Charlie Hebdo. Murder is murder. It is not the Prophet (saw) who was avenged, it is our religion, our values and Islamic principles that have been betrayed and tainted . The kind of things ?CharlieHebdo? published were not decent. But whatever filth they published, they did NOT deserve to be killed for it.
Now even if the perpetrators of the attack claimed to be Muslim and supposedly shouted that they "avenged the Prophet", Muslims, either individually or collectively, are not responsible for what happened and should not have to apologize for being Muslim nor should they be or feel forced to distance themselves from the attacks. This is not some kind of declaration of war on Western civilization. Both the universal freedom of speech as well as Islam as a religion of compassion are under attack here. With the neo-fascist Front National growing in France, the Islamophobic Pegida next door, the far-right growing everywhere and a security state across the West waiting for any excuse to seize more civil liberties, nobody wins here by giving in to this rhetoric but those who want to sow hate on all sides.
Yes, we should be angry and sad about what happened, but we should not accept the invitation of the perpetrators of the attack to join them in their hatefulness. My deep sympathy and sincere condolences to the families of the victims.

When a terrorist commits an act IN THE NAME OF HIS/HER RELIGION, I have no problem identifying that terrorist by his/her religion.

What would be good here is for someone to link to statements by Muslim leaders who condemn the attack given what the terrorists shouted. Wouldn't it be in the interest of the muslim community, particularly in France, for someone to come forward with a condemnation?

I don't see war against these people as the solution. The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan didn't accomplish much. The way to take down the terrorists is through policing, infiltrating these terrorist cells and arresting the perpetrators.
A war against terrorism will be as effective as the war against drugs has been.
