Breaking News: Another Attack On France by Ifetex(m): 7:44pm On Feb 03, 2015
Three French soldiers stabbed during patrol outside Jewish community centre 'by suspected jihadist who was intercepted trying to reach ISIS the week before

The man who stabbed three soldiers outside a Jewish community centre in Nice today, was apprehended in Turkey last week while en-route to join ISIS, authorities believe.
Moussa Coulibaly, 30, was arrested at Istanbul airport and deported back to France after border control became suspicious, a security source has said.
His shares the last name of Amedy Coulibaly, who took hostages in a kosher supermarket in Paris and gunned down a policewoman last month.
The surname is relatively common among families of Malian descent, but anti-terrorist police have confirmed they are 'investigating a link' between the pair.
Coulibaly was detained after the attack, near the Galeries Lafayette department store, and a second man has since been arrested by police.
The attack took place in central Nice around 2pm this afternoon, after Coulibaly had been fined for travelling on the tram without a ticket.
He 'paid the fine without flinching and then rushed at the soldiers,' The Local reports.
Coulibaly then pulled an eight-inch blade out of a bag and set upon one of the soldiers, injuring him in the chin, police said.
Coulibaly then swiped at two other soldiers - injuring one in the cheek, and the other in the forearm - before being apprehended by riot police stationed near the building.
He has a record of theft and violence, but the motive for the attack is not yet clear, an anonymous police official said.
The attack took place outside a Jewish community centre in Nice, home to an Israeli association and a Jewish radio station.
A manager at the center, who did not want to be identified because she was afraid, confirmed soldiers posted in front of the building were attacked. She said it happened around lunchtime and no one was inside the office.
France has been on high alert since the attacks in the Paris region by three Islamic extremists that left 20 people dead, including the gunmen.
More than 10,000 soldiers have been deployed around the country to protect sensitive locations, including major shopping areas, synagogues, mosques and transit hubs.
Earlier Tuesday, French authorities arrested seven men and a woman suspected of involvement in a network sending fighters to join ISIS in Syria.
Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said those arrested in the Paris and Lyon areas are not suspected of links to the attacks against a kosher grocery and newspaper Charlie Hebdo in January.
Three of those arrested Tuesday had traveled to Syria and returned in December 2014, a French official said, though it was unclear whether they joined the Islamic State group or another group.
The network began sending French fighters to Syria in May 2013, and at least one of them was killed there, the official said. Other members of the network are still in Syria.
The group did not appear to be involved in any particular plot, or linked to any other networks already broken up in France in recent months, said the official, who was not authorized to be publicly identified discussing security matters.
France has seen hundreds of homegrown radicals join extremists abroad, most linked to ISIS in Syria and Iraq.
Cazeneuve said recent atrocities by the Islamic State group - including the killing of a Japanese hostage - 'only strengthen the government's determination to fight terrorism every day and every hour.'
French authorities have come under criticism for being overzealous in cracking down on potential threats since the attacks, arresting dozens for comments seen as defending terrorism and notably questioning an eight-year-old boy.

This has nothing to do with Islam.

Islam is a religion of peace. There are millions and millions of moderate Muslims who are using peaceful means to establish a caliphate and impose sharia law on the world. They do not condone violence (unless it is done according to the Koran, and the teachings and example of the prophet in which case its okay).

The fact that moderate Muslims are the power base for violent fanatics and give extremists credibility is irrelevant. The fact that the koran says so many awful things about Jewish people is besides the point. The fact that the prophet Muhammad himself regularly ordered the killing of people who criticized him, once massacred and entire tribe of people, and seized women and kept them as sex slaves for himself and his companions doesn't matter. The fact extremist groups like ISIS can justify every single horrible thing they do by referencing the prophet's actions and teaching as well as the koran itself means nothing. The fact that moderates are producing more potential terrorists everyday by indoctrinating their innocent children with Islam doesn't matter.

Its not fair to judge moderate Muslims by the actions of the people that they willingly associate themselves with. Its not the moderates' fault that some people take the teachings of Islam, that all Muslims support and defend, to their logical conclusions.

Lets not blame all Muslims for all this Islam-inspired violence. Just because you support, promote, and defend a violent, intolerant ideology doesn't mean you are responsible for the violence and intolerance it causes.

Let's be reasonable.
