Donohue is an idiot and his reasoning is flawed. Charlie Hebdo is not guilty of “intolerance”. Charlie Hebdo is not an arm of the French government passing laws that are “intolerant” of Muslims. Charlie Hebdo is a privately- owned satirical review exercising freedom of speech for its readers. As much as you may not like how or what they are criticizing, to justify blaming them for their own deaths is siding with the jihadists who are using France’s overly accommodating policies towards Muslims to silence any dissent, and to thus cement the death of France and the rise of a new Islamist state in her place. Consciously or subconsciously, attacks like this one scare people into willingly forfeiting their free speech rights. The numbers are where they need to be. France has a population of Muslims which has reached over 10 percent of the total population of 66 million and France itself has begun to allow local communities of Muslims to “govern themselves”. Balkanization. France is heading for the cultural ash heap and we in America had better take note because Islamic immigration to America has spiked this past year and there are too many in government here who refuse to connect terrorism with the Muslim population and who are acting and speaking publicly and privately in an accomodationist manner toward the introduction of Sharia law in American jurisprudence. Sharia law condones the murder of all “infidels”. Their goal is to install the Caliphate worldwide. And the U.S. is in their way.
When people hear that a nation is 2% or 5% or 10% Muslim, they usually feel reassured - a small minority, really.
But 10% Muslim in a European city or country means quarter to a third of the people under 25 are Muslim. That’s the pool for radicals and terrorists. If it comes to war, it’s young men against young men, and the Muslims are not a small minority.
As the Muslims increase in numbers and aggression, the Europeans retreat geographically, and have even fewer children.
Donohue explicitly did not justify the murder. The gays taunt Catholics all the time, and obscenely too: Donohue and I would be angry (you would be too, perhaps) --- but that would not "justify" us murdering somebody, nor "justify" a charge of alleged complicity or "siding with" evildoers.
Donohue is right in what he said, He is only wrong in what people think he'd said, imply he'd said, or wish he'd said.
