Shocking - we caught a very brief mention of this on the car radio, but assumed it was a retrospective item.

Thank goodness that so many Islamic organisations have condemned the assult. French residents/nationals of minority faiths are being targetted by racists as it is. This is only going to make the sitution worse.

Ah, the spelling used has a very different meaning.

Suicide bombing is always a chilling mystery & a desolating act.

Presumably as the French for Muslim, "musulman". ( not the context knew the word in at first glance, but with different spelling)

This extremely grave barbaric action is also an attack against democracy and the freedom of the press" - French Muslim Council (CFCM)

Quote Arab League chief Nabil al-Arabi strongly condemns the terrorist attack on Charlie Hebdo newspaper in Paris" - Arab League

QuoteWhomever the attackers are, and whatever the cause may be, nothing justifies the taking of life" - Muslim Council of Britain

Al-Azhar, Sunni Islam's most prestigious centre of learning, condemned the "criminal attack," saying that "Islam denounces any violence", while Egypt's leading Islamic authority, Al-Azhar, also condemned the attack as a "criminal act" on its Facebook page"

So plenty of condemnation from all sides, and of course no one knows the religion of the posters of the many comments being made condemning this terrible act.

Muselman? Not sure in which context you are using that.

The mood in Paris is for the most part that the terrorists burn eternally in hell their souls are beyond forgiveness. The attack on Charlie Hebdo goes beyond murder it is an attack on the very soul of France.

The interior ministry has been alerted to a possible attacks on schools so now they are all shut in the Ile de France, no parking anywhere near.

On top of everything else the French sales start today so Paris is full of shoppers looking for a bargain. Huge security at Galeries Lafayette, Printemps, r. Faubourg St Honere and so on .....

I just hope that there will be some very strong condemnation of this barbarism from the Muselman side but I am not holding my breath.

My God rest their souls and comfort those who are left to suffer and mourn . Words seem so inadequate at such a time. My sincere sympathies with our dear friends in Paris.

13:32 - point of view of a Parisenne

Good day (?),
This is an abominable act ... to wish to extinguish the (free) press by force of arms est is an act both odious and cowardly.
These cartoonists, these journalists are the victims of barbarians who claim a god wno cannot open (to them) the gates of paradise but only a place where they will burn in hell. They will burn one day soon perhaps in the eternal flames since their is no pardon for these criminals without pity or scruple ... (original follows sorry for any trans. errors)

Bonjour,
Cet acte de barbarie est innommable...vouloir faire taire les stylos par des armes cela est l'acte le plus odieux et le plus lâche commis à ce jour.
Ces dessinateurs journalistes sont les victimes de barbares qui se revendiquent d'un dieu qui ne peut pas leur ouvrir les portes d'un paradis mais d'un seul lieu qui est l'enfer. Ils brûleront un jour demain peut être dans les flammes éternelles car pas de pardon pour ces criminels sans foi et sans scrupule....

Horrific attack.

For those who have died may they rest in peace,
My thoughts and prayers for those injured.

Just been listening to reports about this on the radio, yet another heinous attack by fanatics who have no respect for human life :-|

May all those who were killed in this barbaric incident R.I.P. <3 and I pray that all those who were wounded can recover from their injuries.

Horrific, despicable crime.

Dreadful. Just listening to the news reports now.

At about 12:30pm today the Paris HQ of a very popular French satirical magazine ( Charlie Hebdo ) were attacked by Jihadist gunmen. Twelve people are dead and several more badly hurt.
