Huge Crowds, World Leaders Gather For Paris Unity March |

You are not your thoughts...
It's ironic that it's called a "unity march" when the message is completely incoherent. We are all Charlie Hebdo. We are all muslims. What the fuck? Mothercunting muslims killed Hebdo because he insulted the prophet. Anyone else see a slight disconnect here? |

Not really. When they say "we are all Muslims," I imagine they're not talking about the militant Muslims such as the ones who attacked Charlie Hebdo. It's a show of solidarity between themselves and the civilized individuals of that group. |

Go ahead and ask any of your muslim friends (I'm sure you have lots, right?) what they think about the killings. Ask them if it's wrong to kill someone, even if they insulted the prophet, or if they "had it coming". Just because 90% of the people in a group don't have the balls to carry out a massacre of innocents, it doesn't mean they don't support it. |

This is very true. |

I fill my heart with fire, with passion, passion for what makes me nostalgic. A unique perspective fuels my fire, makes me discover new passions, more nostalgia. I love it.

I doubt there are as many people who support the killings as you'd like to believe. |

Sounds like some bullshit publicity stunt to garner respect for themselves since they probably know they're all crooked or something and want to hide it. I'll admit I'm talking out of my ass, but that's typically the only reason things like this happen and since they're all politicians it's fairly reasonable to assume that they're probably crooked. I usually don't judge a group by the actions of a few, but politicians are a special breed. |

I am one who usually tries to defend a group because the actions of a few shouldn't cause a reactive negative response toward the whole group, but I also believe that religious institutions on the whole are as dangerous to society as governments who overstep their bounds and practice totalitarian and fascist principles. Even if a religion is, on its own, is neutral or even positive in its views of the world and humanity and is supposed to promote peace, tolerance, and love, by no means is that what they are used for. The new Pope is literally the only step in a positive direction I've seen any institutionalized religion take in I don't even know how long. Since their inception they have been a means of controlling the populace and taking their money without even needing fake rules to do it like governments do. If the fact of the matter is that Islam creates these kinds of attitudes in their followers, so long as it is the majority of them (which it arguably is), then it is a corrupt institution that is harming humanity on a whole--to include its own followers. Most religious institutions are the same way in this regard. |

The fake was not that nobody was there, they just faked that the world leaders lead on the demonstrations directly, they staged that, but of course people were on the street, if not the same street, get real. Staged it for security reasons. |

I find it amusing - a gathering of world leaders who ostensibly advocate for "free expression" and the satirizion of precious convictions, particularly - no especially when many of these leaders have committed an obvious offence. |

Paris attack designed to shore up France’s vassal status: Roberts |

In Minsk Truce, German and France insist to solve Ukraine crisis by diplomacy, US suggest by supplying arm. US was absent in Minsk. In Paris world leaders unity March against "terror attack", US was absent too. The divergence is very clear. |
