Folks:
The tragic events in Paris yesterday and today will certainly change French society. Things will never be the same in France for a very long time.
What are the implications of targeting a newspaper magazine? Is not the media not one of the biggest boosters of 'let them to their damn thing" and stop tough anti-terrorist laws?
Where will France draw that critical balance? On which side will France err? Will the media rethink some of their language, opposition and ambivalence towards tough anti-terror laws? If terrorists can execute media personalities who are exercising their freedom of speech who is safe? Who is left to exercise those right? How will Europe and the rest of the world react to this ongoing challenge to modernity? Here I am talking about of events that happened in Netherlands before and now France.
France must search deep and long for answers because the terrorist activities in Paris have wounded 66 million plus and more.
If it is true that an 18 year old in-law who is now in custody drove the get away car, what has happened to youth? And then like the Boston bomber he tried to create an alibi that he was in school. What is the truth? Certainly, France will be tested din the days to come.
