The deaf and blind supporters of hypocritical 'freedom of expression' who just talk endlessly but don't think should learn something from it.

I hope Sacco realizes that firing someone is not the same as killing someone. And there is something deeply wrong with a person who uses physical violence against people who offend him.

Senor,

Did you think about it before you killed a million afghans and a million and a half Iraqis.

Where was the freedom of speech for that NBA owner who just said to his girl friend " don't bring blacks as guests ".

Isn't france a country like germany and Britain where you cannot challenge the holocaust----.

Yeah but we didn't kill them for drawing a cartoon of Jesus, did we now, señor? By the way, it's kinda sad that you're blaming all the sectarian killings on us. We didn't kill anywhere close to the numbers you're saying. A vast majority of those were killed by your own people. Now you're conveniently blaming all those deaths on us because you don't want take responsibility for your actions.

You're very conveniently putting the blame on Muslims. There were internal conflicts no denying that but what business did you have there? Found your weapons of mass destruction? No. Only made the situation worse planted your handpicked government, and left. Was Iraq a more peaceful country in Saddam's rule or is it today?

The NBA is a private organization. So that's not a good example The bigger is issue is that he didn't get killed for it. You do see the difference, right?

Yes, France has laws against holocaust denial. Again, the punishment for it is not death. See the difference?

Yea we do see the difference and we condemn killings, but what you don't see is the evident hypocrisy.

Senor,

Those killed were under the military rule---U S conquered those countries---even though they put their stooges in power----it still happened on the U S military's watch. You owned those countries---.

You would have been better off as declaring them as your COLONIES after the conquests---then as they would have been your domains---you would have taken care of the law and order situation.

The world is going to pay heavily for the stupidity of George W, Dick Cheney, Rumsfeld and co---.

You are a new member here sir----I would leave it at that for now.

The World has got used to killings...Killing Muslims...What i don't get is that how many wars have been played on Muslim lands for sake of killing the Muslim terrorists or Islamist or whatever...decades has passed, Iraq, Syria, Libya, Afg and other Africans countries, but the violence (instead of decreasing) has increased many folds, it has crossed and engulfed many countries and has reached the borders of Europe...
Many might remember How happily did France started with the Libya airstrikes, its was fun for them, wasn't it...marketing rafales by killing whatever they found amusing...it was a happy story for the french people till this happened...
Honestly I am not saddened by this ''event''(being a Muslim I should condemn these killings), but no not this idiot...
That day many innocent died because of Charles stupid acts , same as the millions of innocents died in all those muslim countries ''who had figures'' similar as charles.....
He was an extermist just like the others..

HI,

There was a reason that these countries were ruled in the manner that they were. They had the rulers that they deserved---and that is the promise of Allah---. The americans came and without any common sense and brains---invaded those countries an freed the dogs of hell.

Helegu Khan slaughtered every living soul in Baghdad---one of the invaders before him was so angry at the Iraqis---that after winning the war----they sent the armies out---gathered all the rich top soil from the fields and threw it in the river so that the nation would not have crop for years---then there was the curse of Yazid---.

Americans never undertsood the curse that was attached to the land of Iraq---. In the end they paid the heavy price---had to leave---tails between their legs---a whole region burning in fire.

And as for France-------before this act---the americans openly hated France---every media outlet was openly bashing frace----because france did not support the openly if the gulf war----. Americans considered them part of the enemy---and these are the same French----if they had not supported the americans in their war of independence---the americans could never have defeated the British and still be living as slaves.

The world is paying for the sins of Osama Bin Laden

He started this fire in 2001
Since then it has only been a cycle of revenge

Young man,

You only talk smart---but you are clueless to what root of the problem is.

bombing Libya from the air and helping the same breed of al qaeda rats on the ground that were responsible for the Charlie Hebdo massacre.

The roots of the modern conflict probably lie in the 1953 coup and installing the shah in Iran, and it's been all downhill since.
