The comedian responded to the deadly attack on a French satirical magazine by renewing his recent criticisms of the Islamic faith.
Bill Maher didn’t hold back Wednesday night, blasting “hundreds of millions” of the world’s Muslims for allegedly supporting the Islamic terrorist massacre of cartoonists, writers, and editors at a Parisian satirical magazine that has mocked the Prophet Muhammad.
“I know most Muslim people would not have carried out an attack like this,” the host of HBO’s Real Time With Bill Maher said on ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live. “But here’s the important point: Hundreds of millions of them support an attack like this. They applaud an attack like this. What they say is, ‘We don’t approve of violence, but you know what? When you make fun of the Prophet, all bets are off.”

Where's Ben Affleck's response to the killing?
PS USA Today, of all places, ran the offending cartoons online tonight.
Hey Bill, if you’re so f-ing smart, how come you’ve only just figured this out?
What a dork.
>> “I know most Muslim people would not have carried out an attack like this,”
That’s not saying much about “most Muslim people.”
If you had kept up on your FR reading you would know that he figured it out long ago.
“I know most Muslim people would not have carried out an attack like this,”
Most Germans during WWII wouldn’t toss Jews in to ovens either. But, they let it happen. They didn’t stop it. They supported the men who did it.
I'm sure you can shoot me a link to one of the FR threads describing Bill Maher's angst about Muslim violence and intolerance.
Thanks for the link.
Here’s a relevant one this week. Obama saying that violent reaction was a “natural” reaction to insults to Mohammed:
Maher is a hater himself, but he’s absolutely right on this.
I can even understand why some Muslims might be offended by the Charlie Hedbo cartoon. But here is the big difference:
Offend Christians or Jews or blacks or gays and they’ll demonstrate against you. They’ll picket and march and shout slogans. Perhaps a few will even riot. However, they won’t take that as an excuse to kill people.
If some Muslims wanted to protest outside the paper’s offices, I would have no problem with them. Instead, they chose to engage in acts of terrorism in the name of their religion.
Radical Muslims are those who don’t believe the Koran and try to get along with others.
Islamists attacked Charlie Hebdo but (so far) not Bill Maher and USA Today. That shows you who is important to the cultists.
There was a FAMILY GUY episode on last week that had Jesus dead. Cause of death was cocaine and gay sex or something crazy. I never heard a word of protest about it anywhere.
BOOK OF MORMON. Any deaths from that?
Piss Christ?
Maher is an a**hole Munchkin (he’s about 4’11”), but he’s the only Hollywood lib with guts enough to tell the truth on the Islamic issue. Maybe he’s got relatives getting blown up in Israel, I dunno.
Props to him on this.
A lot of the British liberals who created the Islamic takeover of London fled the city. John Cleese, for example, fled after creating the craphole. Similar to the Californians bringing their screwed up liberalism to other states.
I’m sure EVERY paper that posts the cartoons is now on a list somewhere.
FoxNews.com did. USA Today did.
I think billions would support a nuke detonating over Mecca.
“I know most Muslim people would not have carried out an attack like this,”
.
It’s because most Muslims are not trained to do so, but that is not saying that most muzzies would not have minded to do so.
These terrorists were not just run-of-the-mill Muslims — one had trained in Yemen.
Mohammed said- pedohile, that is such a big word for a 9-year old!
I suspect if a Republican was President, his comment would be different.
I’m sure I can, but I’ll let you or someone else make the effort.
There have been many over recent months.
