Wolf Blitzer: Charlie Hebdo Went "Over the Line"
Pundit Press ^ | 1/7/15 | Aurelius

Posted on 01/07/2015 9:20:20 AM PST by rightistight

Reporting live on CNN, Wolf Blitzer accused Charlie Hebdo of occasionally going “over the line” in their satirical criticisms of current events.

The comment came as Blitzer was detailing the Islamic terrorist attack against the Charlie Hebdo office, which resulted in the deaths of 10 staff members and two police officers.

Blitzer categorically slammed the attacks and said there was no justification for it. However, in detailing what Charlie Hebdo is known for, he added that, at times, they went “over the line” in their commentary.

The attack on the office happened today and is currently believed to have been carried out by three Islamic extremists. Charlie Hebdo was targeted because they published pictures of Muhammad. Those who carried out the attack shouted, “We have avenged the Prophet Muhammad” and “Allahu Akbar” during the murders.

How can you “go over the line” when dealing with these people? More like self defense.

Obama has been busy releasing terrorists. All terrorist attacks now belong to the Democrat Party.

The left can’t help but defend their terrorist friends. Of course, the line doesn’t exist for the murderers.
