Deadly gun attack in Paris: Global reactions & discussion

Rubbish. Drawing pictures of anything is within freedom of speech and it's time muslims sucked it up and learnt to deal with criticism like mature adults instead of throwing tantrums.

Well, if you look at my full post, that is exactly what I said.

I don't believe if a religion orders you to kill people not similar to you, we should respect it and be tolerant towards it. The thing is, that Islam DOES NOT order you to do it, rather it's a sin. But there is a sect, that is only growing, that does order you to do this. It's the sect of the Taliban, Al-Qaeda and ISIS. I don't know what this sect is called, and as a Muslims I know that this goes against Islam

And no, I don't know of any single MAINSTREAM tafsir that would provide justification.

The French police have a case to answer here too. Specific threats were made against the magazine a few days ago, yet the police failed to commit any additional resources to defending them.

I think that it is our moral duty to insist in criticising and making fun of what deserves being criticised and made fun of : and this includes Muhammad

satire of powerful figures is sacrosanct and healthy, and should be protected at all costs

It's all very well that Western leaders are queuing up to defend freedom of speech, but they've been destroying it for years now - funny how they're only willing to defend it in the face of a terrorist attack.

The UK's response to terrorism receives a lot of criticism and usually rightly so, but I can guarantee that if, say, Private Eye were threatened with violence some form of armed guard would be deployed to protect them ASAP.

Sorry, I was confused by you saying

Ibn Kathir is about as mainstream as you can get!

"The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His messenger and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be killed" - 5:33

"`Wage war' mentioned here means, oppose and contradict, and it includes disbelief," - Ibn Kathir

Actually, our answers are quite clear, you just seem to reject them because they don't fit in with your view that Islam is bad, therefore you will not stop spreading misinformation until the Muslims themselves believe in the extreme narrative that you propose.

That verse does not justify today's attack. These people were not at war with Muslims.

Your Ibn Kathir quote lists 3 conditions. To 'oppose and contradict' is to fight against Muslims (due to them following Islam) and to contradict the law in clear rebellion - this fulfils 2 of the conditions. The third condition is that whilst physically fighting against Muslims and rebelling, the person doing so is in a state of disbelief. Once all 3 of these conditions are met, then the person has 'waged war' and thus this ayah comes into effect.

Freedom of speech is a myth we don't have that anyway. The money they're taking from the people to find so called "terrorists" is used to suppress our right to speak the truth.

a perfect slave mentality

congrats

No. This is what happens when you lampoon Islam. Nothing at all to do with 'troubling people'.

What is the truth then?

But the only intention of satirical cartoons of the prophet and other religious personas are to piss off the followers, and give off the whole 'I can do what I want.'

Well that's the point if you say the truth you can expect the police to turn up at your door.

both you lot are as bad as eachother

why you still saying this when Zamestaneh set you str8? i see you had no reply huh

There are very few things I cannot say due to the law. The truth is not one of them.

As soon as i heard about the attack i didn't even have to ask who the perpetrators were...

The decent Muslims, of which the vast majority are, need to stop radical fascist terrorists from doing these things.
