The questions remain unanswered. Why are people allowed to make a mockery of just one religion (read Islam) and they never think of making fun of other religions including Christianity? Why has the world begun to target Islam? True some counties of the west have what is called the “freedom of expression” but when this freedom gets misused, a reaction results. It is when a few realize well that the law of the land will not listen to their feelings or sufferings and find nowhere to go to, they take the extreme decision – they take up guns. If there would have been laws in place where the Charlie Hebdo magazine publisher could have been sued in the court of law for their act, they would not they have printed such caricatures. Neither would some people have resorted to the killings.
It is absolutely absurd comparing the publishing of cheap magazines to magazines insulting religions. The two stand at opposite poles. Religion is a very sensitive matter to people on both sides of the fence. Many are tolerant. Some are not.
