The CNN host asked, "Josh, when you talk about countering the message, you keep using the word violence. I mean, this is an act of terrorism, that's what the president of France called it -- an act of terrorism. You're referring to ISIS and other bad actors, it doesn't really matter who it is at the end of the day. You know you're fighting a very large group of people of somewhat similar concern. Do you see this as an act of terrorism, and is this something that has to be condemned on that level?"
"Based on what we know right now it does seem that's what we're confronting here. And this is an act of violence that we certainly do condemn, and if based on this investigation it turns out to be an act of terrorism, then we would condemn that in the strongest possible terms, too," said Earnest.
"I mean, look, this is again based on the very preliminary information that we have, this isn't just an attack as you point out, Chris, on the people of France and on innocent civilians. This is an attack on some of the basic values that we hold dear here in this country and basic values of freedom of speech and freedom of expression and the free press that is also held dear by our allies in France. So this is something we take seriously and that we condemn, like I said, in the strongest possible terms."

Obama has been busy releasing terrorists. Every terrorist act now belongs to the Democrat Party.

And then we get Obama's statement on ISIL:
(CNN) -- President Barack Obama was trying to make a broader point when he uttered "ISIL is not Islamic," but the four-word phrase could still come back to haunt him.
Critics on Twitter quickly fired off on the President for making the assertion, with many noting that ISIL in fact stands for the "Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant." (CNN refers to the group by the acronym ISIS in its news reports. The group recently started calling itself the Islamic State).
FoxNews Hemmer just said that the ‘perps/Islamist terrorists’ used a child to gain access through a locked door.

Hemmer did not give any more details.
Soetoro is desperately looking for the maker of the video that inspired this “violence”. It was just a “demonstration” in Benghazi because just four American citizens died. It becomes “violence†when twelve Europeans are viciously killed. I wonder what he would have called the Trade Center atrocity is he had been in office.
Someone cold punch that bastard in the nose!
Is this guy Ernest one of the muzzle cabal in the whitehouse too?

SURVIVOR WITNESS ACCOUNT:
Survivor and Charlie Hebdo cartoonist Corinne “Coco” Rey was quoted by French newspaper L’Humanite as saying: “I had gone to collect my daughter from day care and as I arrived in front of the door of the paper’s building two hooded and armed men threatened us. They wanted to go inside, to go upstairs. I entered the code.
“They fired on Wolinski, Cabu ... it lasted five minutes ... I sheltered under a desk... They spoke perfect French... claimed to be from al Qaida.”
They didn’t like the content of the magazine. They were extreme critics.
Ernst is a joke. Obama has just called it a “terrorist attack.” Don’t these people even have talking points? Ernst ought to ask to borrow a copy from the NYT or MSNBC before going out and making a fool out of himself again.
Thank you. I will be using your statement as a new tag line.
This administration has lovingly embraced the middle eastern death cult with open arms. It has bowed down before it in complete submission. It loves the subhuman ideology that preaches hatred for Jews and Christians.
I don’t expect this administration to condemn anything that its buddies do.
It will be interesting to see how many more people will have to be killed before people will wake up to the fact that we do not need breeding grounds for violence, by some referred to as a religion. Once any kind of religion either directly or indirectly is responsible for mayhem and killings, it certainly calls for changes to be made. There is little doubt in my mind that down the road drastic changes will take place, it is just a question how many more killings it will take before people get fed up enough to get rid of this nuisance and finally say enough is enough. Who needs it ?
If they can't see it, it's because they are not looking. It kind of makes you wonder whose side they are on.
A tortured spokesperson on CNN, is not quite sure it was Islamic terror. (Paraphrased) Mmmmm, could be French underground, mmmmmmm, could be retired military. To his credit, Blitzer pointed out that witnesses repeated various comments made by the “possible” terrorist, mentioning the prophet, Allah Akbar, etc. THEN, he said well it changes it dramatically, IF THE EYEWITNESSES ARE RELIABLE and we can not be sure the terrorist really meant it. SERIOUSLY.
"they will draw sword against your fine wisdom, they will defile your glory; they will throw you down into the pit and you will die a violent death surrounded by the seas;"
Too bad for this “analyst” that Fox News is already airing video where you can clearly hear the shooter yell Allah Akbar before opening fire.
Islam is as Islam does.
Today’s WH is a joke.
