One thought on “Benjamin Netanyahu and Mahmoud Abbas both march in Paris

  1. MyMild sent us this from the NY Times:

    The leader of the Shi’ite Muslim group Hezbollah said on Friday that Islamist terrorists had done more harm to Islam than any cartoon or book, a reference to the attack by suspected Islamist militants on French satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo.

    Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said what he called “takfiri terrorist groups” had insulted Islam more than “even those who have attacked the messenger of God through books depicting the Prophet or making films depicting the Prophet or drawing cartoons of the Prophet.”

    Takfiri is a term for a Muslim who accuses others, including another Muslim, of apostasy [cf. “self-hating Jew”]. Hezbollah considers members of ultra-hardline Sunni-dominated groups like al Qaeda and Islamic State to be takfiris.
