It seems like France stands out among terrorist attacks in the news. Is it because they are more likely to be critical of Muslim culture than other European nations? Is it because there is a security failure allowing terrorist to come in and organize better?

    A lot of people misunderstand who Charlie Hebdo are. So this -

    https://twitter.com/AkyolinEnglish/status/1622980163817336834?lang=en

    Is their reaction to the Turkey earthquake, There were roughly 51k killed, and their cartoon was that this was good because that was less muslims they had to kill.

    Their ‘Mohammed edition’ was a full comic about how much they hated muslims. It was pure racism and in many countries they would have been prosecuted for hate speech.

    They are a hate group.

    This is the meaning of two wrongs don’t make a right. Charlie Hebdo are disgusting, the people who attacked them so severely were absolutely wrong, but neither act makes either of them right.

      I don’t think Charlie Hebdo is very funny often, but you just grasping at straws here. You willfully misinterpret, no actually you just blindly follow a twitter that misinterpret something.

      You know, they do this to anger people. To get followers. Etc.

        This is not a twitter I follow, I had to search out the cartoon to explain the issue and this was the first result.

        But I do agree with your second point, Charlie Hebdo do this to anger people, to get followers. They are looking to recruit the far right and create backlash against certain groups.
