World News Videos | ABC World News

News reports indicate the terrorist group Al Qaeda provided $20,000 to fund the terrorist attack on Charlie Hebdo magazine in Paris, carried out by Cherif Kouachi, 32 and Said Kouachi, 34. The Kouachi brothers killed 11 cartoonists and journalists at Charlie Hebdo's offices, in addition to murdering a responding police officer in the vicinity of crime scene. The attack was launched over the magazine publishing cartoons of the Islamic figure Muhammad, which is forbidden in Islam. Some of the cartoons included Muhammad French kissing a man. 

Newly released store surveillance footage of the related gun attack on the Hyper Cacher kosher supermarket, undertaken by 32-year-old terrorist, reveals a grisly scene. Four innocent hostages were brutally gunned down by Coulibaly. French police raided the store and shot Coulibaly to death, as he attempted to open fire on them. 

In related news, Charlie Hebdo magazine, which normally sells 50,000 copies per week, has sold out today. After the terrorist attacks in Paris on the magazine's office, the new edition of Charlie Hebdo magazine released today sold 700,000,000 copies in the first few hours of release. 5,000,000 copies of the issue will be printed. 

The New York Times is reporting that Muslims in the Middle East are enraged over the new issue of Charlie Hebdo featuring a cover cartoon of Muhammad. The Egyptian and Turkish governments have issued restrictions on local papers disseminating Charlie Hebdo. However, France is undeterred and is supporting the publication, as well as cracking down on terrorism and hate speech, arresting 54 people in the fallout of the attacks on their nation.

Two Terror Suspects In Charlie Hebdo Magazine Murders On The Loose While One Surrenders

The manhunt continues for two terrorist shooters, Cherif Kouachi, 32 and Said Kouachi, 34, connected to the deadly massacre at the Charlie Hedbo magazine in Paris, France. 11 cartoonist and journalists as well as one police officer were shot to death, over cartoons of the Islamic figure, Muhammad. The Muslim religion forbids Muhammad be drawn. The execution style murders shocked and appalled France and the world, as gunmen believed to be affiliated with Al Qaeda stormed the Charlie Hedbo headquarters and began calling out the names of select employees, then executing them. 

It was a cold, cruel act to murder people over their art. The Judiciary Report advises writers and cartoonists to be selective regarding what they publish, when it comes to religious matters, as it may incite fanatics who will turn to murder. At the end of the day, human life is very precious and must be treated as such. Therefore, we should endeavor to preserve it as best as possible, even if it means agreeing to disagree, even when we know we are right. It is not letting evil win. You can do more good if you are alive and opposing injustice in other ways.

12 People Killed In Paris During Terror Attack At Magazine Over Drawings Of The Islamic Figure Muhammad Which The Site Warned Against A Week Ago

Shooting victim being taken to an ambulance

A week ago on December 29, 2014, the Judiciary Report warned in the article "North Korean Government Calls U.S. President Barack Obama A 'Monkey' In Racist Slur After Sony CEOs Slur Him As Well In Computer Hacking Scandal" that, "It reminds me of people who draw a picture of Islamic figure, Mohammed, knowing it will greatly offend and inflame Muslims, leading to violence and even death, as has happened, but do it anyway. Why endanger yourself and people associated with you, trying to prove some point. Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should."

Fast-forward a week and a half to today in France, where 12 innocent journalists and cartoonists were mercilessly killed at the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, by extremist Muslims, who are angry that the publication published cartoon drawings and controversial items about the prophet Muhammad. This is exactly what the Judiciary Report warned against over a week ago. It is the worst terrorist attack on France for the past 20-years. It is being called sophisticated and well planned out.

As a Christian I hold my faith dear. I appreciate that we in the western world have the right to free speech, which is an important freedom, but you have to make judgment calls on what you write, if it will bring death and destruction to innocent people. It simply is not worth your life or that of anyone else. It is not fair, as we should be able to express ourselves as we choose. However, in life many things are not fair and we must be careful that our decisions will lead to the greater good and not involuntarily bring death.  

The Judiciary Report sends its deepest condolences to the families and friends of the victims of today's shooting and to the people of France as a whole. It is a lovely country. What happened to their citizens was not right. No one deserves to be killed over their opinion and expression thereof.
