1 mil sold out. Copies selling on ebay for $100. Nice try death cult ideology. . . But you failed. What do you do when an uncivilized people's try to bring you down to their level? You show them how to be a bigger person. Huge lesson for extremists and moderates on how to live a better life. Urge everyone to buy a copy of the latest Hebdo and show their muslim peers how to get over themselves.
Don't care. As long as lives are saved in the long run, I can handle being the mean, but honest, guy.
How is the OP being an idiot? I think it is pretty cool way to support freedom of speech. Sorry he isn't saving a life
srsly though the muslim world has to start owning this **** and denouncing it - or they'll keep being blamed. killing innocent people should never be justified.
Srsly though, how many times does it need to be denounced for clowns to acknowledge that it has been denounced and is not supported by the "Muslim world"?
(Western) Moderates don't have a unified Muslim community. And I think "moderates" in the Middle East are pretty indifferent or might even silently cheer the killings. From the little I've seen, a lot of Europeans don't care much about absolute freedom of speech and are ok with the curbing of hate speech. From an American standpoint, I'm not a fan of the censorship; but its a different viewpoint over there.
They're everywhere including this thread!!! -edit- Adding the Charlie Hebdo cover since many outlets are refusing to show it.
So every time someone commits a crime, his community needs to step forth and denounce it? Or is this only a requirement for Muslims?
clearly they weren't necessary because he did it. “Violence is a lie, for it goes against the truth of our faith, the truth of our humanity, the life, the freedom of human beings. Violence is a crime against humanity, for it destroys the very fabric of society … On my knees I beg you to turn away from the paths of violence and to return to the ways of peace... Let history record that at a difficult moment in the experience of the people of Ireland, the Bishop of Rome set foot in your land, that he was with you and prayed with you for peace and reconciliation, for the victory of justice and love over hatred and violence." -- Pope John Paul II, Appeal to IRA in Drogheda, September 1979 http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/j...hom_19790929_irlanda-dublino-drogheda_en.html just a snippet of a plea to those in power the youth being corrupted to denounce violence.
your question doesn't make sense. if muslim leaders all across the world denounced the violence and pleaded to stop corrupting their youth, then there would be no posts demanding that they do so why would there be posts asking someone to do something they already did?
Muslim leaders all around the world have denounced the violence. I suspect you're not looking very hard to find their denunciations.
