This is the only good article I have read so far on this whole mess. It backs up many of the things others have been saying here.

Solid article.
Re: Another article on Charlie Hebdo and free speech
How ironic.
An article that says "We need to understand context", yet reprints a cover of Charlie Hebdo without context, in order to accuse them of racism or islamophobia.
I didn't read the article myself, but googled about the context. Conclusion: Charlie Hebdo was not mocking the Boko Haram victims.
But then, I'm not expecting much from a site called "al-akhbar".

Common sense is another word for prejudice.

Anyway, look at this, an even better article I just found! Well, it's not so much an article as much as it is a short yet righteous rant.

Not better than the first IMO. But I am not surprised to see how quickly the "only good" article can be followed by an "even better" article.Derived Absurdity wrote:Anyway, look at this, an even better article I just found!
