Okay, so since I complained in the ISIS thread about Islamic extremists being lumped together, and there really being so much more to talk about in relation to this, what do you make of the Charlie Hebdo shootings yesterday in Paris? An outrage, sure — was it an attack on freedom of speech? What about the high percentage of public response that is purely racist invective, which al-Qaeda was probably counting on as an aid to their cause of drawing more French Muslims into their ranks? Elsewhere in France today, some idiots went out shooting at mosques in "retaliation". Surely that can't help but fan the flames.
