The terrorists accomplish nothing with this act except further suffering for the people whom practice Islam in an open and democratic society.

Going after cartoonist's is the most asinine and senseless thing these people could have done.

Clearly they do not have a concept of satire, nor are they true practitioners of Islam. If you study Islam you know it is non violent at its core. A "Jihad" is not a war on "infidels" or "non believers", it is a war on your "personal demons", it has zero to do with external influences or people. They have clearly interpreted Islam in a way which is governed by political agenda.

Calling god's name while killing people is revolting. All they did was further tarnish Islam and its believers. This act will not stop satire from occurring. It was short sighted and will create more problems.
