A dozen people are dead in Paris after Muslim terrorists attacked the office of the satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo. The attack was carried out because radical Islamists were angered over a picture of Muhammad was published by the paper.

The Editor and Lead Cartoonist were among the dead. A total of 10 staff members were murdered as well as two police officers. Five more are injured, and the gunmen are still on the loose.

Charlie Hebdo has published numerous satirical pictures of religion over a number of years, including those making fun of Christians and Jews. These pictures did not inspire attacks.

Instead, a picture of Muhammad ignited the cowardly attack. At the scene, the terrorists screamed, “we have avenged the Prophet Muhammad" and "Allahu Akbar."

It is cowardly, because they remove the ability for the victim to fight back.

You mean, like dropping bombs?

You mean, like dropping bombs?

In your mind does the righteousness of the cause matter at all?

Does the atrocities done by the other side matter?

The topic of all of this is the word “cowardly.” That is all.
