Its almost nearly all over. The terrorists have won as far as I'm concerned. The Hebdo attack will ensure that nobody will dare to be critical of Islam going forward.
Has anyone from our 'fearless' media republished those cartoons that were responsible?
I would have thought that was newsworthy and in context.
Of course they haven’t.
The Paris turnout means nothing and achieves little (if anything). The meek West will become even meeker with their desire to appease as they know now there are real life consequences.

Have to agree. The cartoons should have been plastered all over every newspaper, TV & network in the world as a sign of how pathetic the attack was. “Killed for this” should have been the catchcry but as you say the media en-masse have been weak as ■■■■.
If the cartoons were not against our own laws, then maybe they would have.
Might want to consider that a large part of these hysterically amusing cartoons are obscene, and not for children to witness, so maybe keep them to adult magazines.
Thats nonsense. We had footage of a person being killed on the nightly news because it was in context yet they refuse to show a cartoon FFS that was the whole reason behind the atrocity.
The mainstream press are ■■■■■ scared.
End of story.
Or perhaps cautious and responsible, which is somewhat different to shitscared.
Nevertheless, that’s a far cry from ‘the terrorists have won.’
You see what bothers me about your OP is that it forces me to think about places where the terrorists have won, or at least are winning, and it’s my birthright as a white Australian male that I don’t have to do that.
So I think of those places, and I look around my nice deck and say hello to my nice uncovered wife and my nice unmutilated daughter and look forward to a nice pork lunch without any fear of being shot today or being coerced to convert to anything other than Mormonism…and I think…yeah-f*cking-nah.
But not so cautious and responsible when it comes to Catholics and Jews right.
No they are ■■■■■ scared and this particular terror battle has been won.
Now basically the last relatively mainstream publication has been silenced. Nobody will dare speak out going forward.
SBS showed it.
Look, I do understand your angst and confusion over the mainstream media not publishing exactly what you want to see.
Must come as quite a shock to you.
Its not publishing what I want to see that is the point.
The point is they have been cowed into submission and there is no consistency in how they depict Catholicism and Judaism as against Islam.
Its sad that our so-called freedom of speech has been compromised due to the sheer terror of potentially saying the wrong thing. It is now literally a matter of life and death when it comes to Islam.

In the west political correctness governs our discourse.
In many Islamic countries religious correctness governs.A reply to: @Daytripper regarding QuoteLink

If the mainstream media not doing what I would personally like them to do means terrorism has won, then they won a long time ago.
I’m not sure it was ever a terrorist goal to have the media disappoint you in particular though, and if you haven’t seen (certainly one of) the cartoon in question in the media then I can only imagine you weren’t paying much attention.
I find your assertion by turns both bewildering, ignorant and borderline offensive, all three in different ways.
There’s the peculiar idea that nobody dares be critical of this religion, when you will find so much of it in this thread. I won’t say without fear of reprisal, but that reprisal involves people disagreeing with them (and for the record I’ll say it again, places that are under the power of Islam are oppressive, misogynistic (and real misogyny…not the namby-pamby you called her a bitch for taking all your shit in the divorce misogyny we have in the West) and brutal).
Anyway, finish your latte and get active, brother!
Start a blog, and don’t forget your hashtags.
Maybe you could get the downtrodden masses to march on Spencer St, or perhaps Cronulla, to complain about your impending oppression.
Wimm - When Islam is given the same mocking from our 'fearless' media and comedians as say Catholicism and Judaism then and only then will I believe that the terrorists have lost.
Nobody has any problems being openly critical of Catholics. But ask them to say similar against Islam and they go to water. And to be fair, Islam probably has 50 times more material to be critical of as well.
Its a terrorist goal to have people remain quiet about extremist Islam. In this way, they gain a stronger foothold in mainstream society. The burqa, hijab or whatever you want to call it is just one example. How anyone in Western society could approve of this blatant disregard for womens human rights is beyond me. But we see it happening now and unfortunately it is now becoming acceptable.
Its not just the media. Our politicians are just as gutless. I dare say the terrorists are laughing about the march in Paris. Its totally ineffectual and achieves nothing.
I dont believe the march in Paris was promoted by the government to send a message to Islamic extremists. Its was to try to maintain civil order inside France, by emphasising “unity” There are apparently 5 million islamic people in France. Last thing they want or need is the catholic french majority trying to take out reprisals against islamic french people. It could get out of hand.

I like disagreeing with Daytripper as much as the next pinko cardigan wearing latte sipper. But on this front, the rhetoric may be a bit over the top (it’s Daytripper, what do we expect) but his core message is pretty much right.
