John Kerry Justifies Charlie Hebdo Slaughter

Loading

In remarks today in Paris, France, Secretary of State John Kerry justified the terror attack earlier this year that targeted the magazine Charlie Hebdo in January. This latest attack, by contrast, was different, said Kerry:

“In the last days, obviously, that has been particularly put to the test,” Kerry said, according to a State Department transcript. “There’s something different about what happened from Charlie Hebdo, and I think everybody would feel that. There was a sort of particularized focus and perhaps even a legitimacy in terms of – not a legitimacy, but a rationale that you could attach yourself to somehow and say, okay, they’re really angry because of this and that.

kerry is a POS-DRUNK Pure GARBAGE. Worked Inrtel and he is trash.

What the hell drugs are these people on? offensive, insane rambling, inability to form an answer to straight forward questions. Did Putin slipped something to them and they except for falling down are blabbering in their sleep?

Do you honestly not understand what Kerry was actually saying? His entire statement seems clear enough to me. It isn’t what you’re claiming it is:

“There’s something different about what happened from Charlie Hebdo, and I think everybody would feel that. There was a sort of particularized focus and perhaps even a legitimacy in terms of – not a legitimacy, but a rationale that you could attach yourself to somehow and say, okay, they’re really angry because of this and that.

“This Friday was absolutely indiscriminate. It wasn’t to aggrieve one particular sense of wrong. It was to terrorize people. It was to attack everything that we do stand for. That’s not an exaggeration. It was to assault all sense of nationhood and nation-state and rule of law and decency, dignity, and just put fear into the community and say, “Here we are.” And for what? What’s the platform? What’s the grievance? That we’re not who they are? They kill people because of who they are and they kill people because of what they believe. And it’s indiscriminate. They kill Shia. They kill Yezidis. They kill Christians. They kill Druze. They kill Ismaili. They kill anybody who isn’t them and doesn’t pledge to be that. And they carry with them the greatest public display of misogyny that I’ve ever seen, not to mention a false claim regarding Islam. It has nothing to do with Islam; it has everything to do with criminality, with terror, with abuse, with psychopathism – I mean, you name it.”

@Greg: Poor Kerry ….. and Greg.
Learn a little something about Islam.
Read the koran and hadiths.
For yourself.
Muslims are not allowed to do anything violent unless they are responding to something on the other side.
So, built into Islam is a grievance arrangement that is astonishing.
Anything and everything from how you dress, what you eat or drink, whether you like music, what your religion is, even made-up crap is grounds for killing you in Islam.
Look up how many Muslims have murdered people in, say, Pakistan, for the ”crime” of drinking water, touching a koran, refusing to marry someone, marrying someone, working too many hours, being Christian, being a rival in business, and so on.
These are NOT things worthy of death yet that is what Muslims do.
So, now the West is getting a taste of what closer neighbors of Muslim majority areas have suffered and, lo and behold, Westerners don’t like it.
Kerry is excusing it.
Ask yourself why.

How is he excusing anything? How can anyone read an excuse into what he said?

As Charles Cooke puts it:

IOW, JFKerry just

announced before the world that he could grasp why the woman in the short skirt was raped but that he had been left scratching his head by the attack on the woman in the pantsuit and the overcoat.

Kerry’s fall back position — that there was “a rationale you could attach yourself to” for the Charlie Hebdo attack but not the ones last week — fares no better than his original phraseology. Kerry is saying that we (not the murderers whom he distinguishes as “they”) could “attach” ourselves to cartoon drawings as a rationale for murder. But who in his right mind could perform this mental stunt?http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2015/11/john-kerrys-freudian-slip.php

Oh, I know!
Kerry, Clinton, Obama and …….. Greg.
