of course it does, as much as it did the roman empire and every other empire before it and since.

France and Australia don't have an empire.

We have a collective strength. An alliance, western values and free speech and these values can only get stronger as life continues unchanged in both countries, marking the terrorists defeat.

You try to terrorize us, but you FAIL!

And for repayment, we send over our planes to bomb them day and night until victory is taken by Iraq and Peshmerga. If it takes 10 years, then so be it. There is no shortage of bombs.

Hey Tim, high time you inserted both feet in mouth!

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Two brainwashed savages walk into the offices of this magazine and indiscriminately murder anyone on sight, then they kill a police officer whilst injured on the ground in the meantine screaming out allahu akbar.

This is the fundamental issue here, barbarians committing murder in the name of a non existent god.

Idiots such as the psycho excuse these murderous acts. To them I say, go blow your useless selves up.

That’s an oversimplified and biased version of the events.

For this incident to have happened two other things preceded:

1. An evil and corrupt publishing company published material in defiance of Hate Speech law.

2. The French state repeatedly failed to uphold Hate Speech laws by providing immunity to this offender and perhaps others.

A fair and square judge will take all these facts into consideration before passing judgment. :wink:

So sue the firm, not shoot the staff. Was it all of their fault or only that of the editor? re, come on FFS.

Charlie was sued on at least 3 occasions that I read about, and incredibly they won every single time despite clear violations of Hate Speech laws so that’s a total failure (most likely through corruption) of the French state to uphold the law.

I believe it was 12 times, by Jews and Christians as well, and they were cleared on every occasion showing that Charlie Hebdo is not breaking French law.

...i find it hard to believe that the millions who marched for Charlie, if you will, favour corruption of their Justice System, by association, as well.

One banner/placard stood out: "I’m marching but I’m conscious of the confusion and hypocrisy of the situation."
