Roughly 3 quarters of the British Muslim population believes the Charlie hebdo cartoonists who were gunned down and killed by radical Muslims for depicting Muhammad blasphemously, should've been given a prison sentence. Almost half believe they should've been put to death. This is in Britain.
100 million might even be an understatement.

I agree. It's definitely an Islam problem.

And while I do agree with others here that there are other factors that went into what caused this incident, to ignore Islam is a grave error. Honestly, at this point with the history it has since taking over the middle east in the 70s...addressing the other variables is analogous to cutting the head off a hydra. Islam has some serious problems and liberal and loving muslims have a lot of work to do if they want to reform it.


Also, wishing you the best NinjaSM. Stay safe.
