“Robert Spencer incarnates intellectual courage when, all over the world, governments, intellectuals, churches, universities and media crawl under a hegemonic Universal Caliphate’s New Order. His achievement in the battle for the survival of free speech and dignity of man will remain as a fundamental monument to the love of, and the self-sacrifice for, liberty.”

France: Muslim arrested for plotting jihad attack on magazine that published Motoons
................................
Quelle surprise! Oh, wait...no, it's not...
As Robert Spencer notes, it's *exactly* what we expected. And exactly what the French authorities expected, as well, since they sent riot police to protect the Charlie Hebdo offices.
Funny, they didn't get this kind of reaction when they lampooned the topless Duchess of Cambridge photos...

Everyone knew this was coming. If only we would outlaw criticism of Islam and submit to Sharia, all would be well and all manner of thing would be well. It's so simple!
................................
Of course! And that's why Infidels are so safe in countries with blasphemy laws against insulting Islam! You know, like...uh...Pakistan—then again, maybe not...

PARIS/MARSEILLE, France Sept 20 (Reuters) - Police detained a young man in southern France on Thursday on suspicion that he was planning a revenge attack on the staff of a satirical magazine which published cartoons mocking the Prophet Mohammad.
................................
A "young man"? Maybe a trendy user of Verlan, or a fan of Eiffel or Severin?
Hell, no—they mean it's another damned Mohammedan Jihadist.

Anti-terrorism magistrates near the Mediterranean port city of Toulon questioned the 18-year-old after he threatened in a message on Facebook to cut the throats of anyone he could find at the offices of Charlie Hebdo, a judicial source said.
................................
Where did he ever get the idea to "behead those who insult the prophet"? Really, I can't imagine...sarc/off
More:
The magazine's publication of cartoons ridiculing Mohammad added to the anger of Muslims already outraged over an anti-Islam film produced in the United States and posted on the Internet.
................................
Screw these barbarians. The idea that a little exercise of free speech "added to their anger" and made them rush out and plot cutting the throats of non-violent cartoonists and satire writers is *just grotesque*, and we shouldn't stop saying so.
More:
The suspect had no police record but he was already known to security services, the source said, without giving further details....

Izzat so? In other words, this vile Mohammedan was likely *already plotting Jihad* even before the latest
grievance de jure...
