I agree that it's very unlikely that Israeli's share any responsibility for Charlie Hebdo attack. The point I wanted to illustrate that it's easy to make straightfoward claims that aren't fully true.

"the mainstream west upon reflection has not attributed anything to Islamic Terror which is not Islamic Terror, although certainly plenty of individual's in the west have come up with plenty of misattributions both in favor of and against Muslims."

I think claiming that Palestianens bomb an Israeli embassy in London, is an attribution for Islamic Terror.

Certainly long before this post went up, it is a really safe conclusion that Islamic Terrorists shot up Charlie Hebdo.

The thing that the Turkish premier denies isn't who pulled the trigger but who's responsible for those guys pulling the trigger. In particular he disbelieves that people known to have completed a terror training camp were able to coordinate such an attack without the secret service noticing.

Of course he's still wrong.
