What offence did France committed to deserve this vicious (terrorist) attacks?

Is there any war(s) the country's troops are currently engaged in?
What really went wrong in one of the most peaceful European country?

Hate.... Is the opium of most religions. Rivalry and quest for who is the way to God, who can save, which doctrine is the best and who serves the true God is one thing that is destroying man's coexistence faster than racism.
It amazes me how we are all fanatics and carry this thing on our head and sentience, when the reality is, we met this thing called religion here on earth. If God wanted us to be Muslims he would have done that from heaven, if he wanted us to be a Buddhist he would have from heaven, same as Christians, Jews as the likes.

We must make compromises and follow to detail doctrines that preach love. That is the answer and solution to extremism

you allow muslims into your country to practise their radicalism free of charge. Thats what you get. Being pummeled by the same muslims you grant citizenship.

Also you have being spear heading so many attacks on muslim countries where muslim terrorists are e.g. Mali iraq syria etc. And you think they wont find a way to hurt you back?

I thought france was smart. They hace disappointed me. The whole western countries have disappointed me. Maybe the uk have better in terms of their policies.

I no fit talk again
