37 Muslim nations persecuting Christians-Radical Islam melding with communist, totalitarian ideologies-Published: 01/11/2014 at 7:38 PM-WND
The number of Christian martyrs was twice as high in 2013 as the year before, and radical Islamist governments and groups are responsible for the vast majority of deaths and persecution around the world, according to the 2014 World Watch List.As WND reported, Open Doors USA, which assists the persecuted church around the world, compiled the World Watch list and reports 2,123 Christians were killed for their faith last year, compared to 1,201 in 2012. In fact, the killings in Syria alone (1,213) trumped the total from a year earlier.“The target of violence is mainly taking place mainly from rebel groups who are Islamic extremists, so these are jihadists practicing extreme Islam and are targeting Christian areas,” said Emily Fuentes, communications director at Open Doors USA. “Many of these Christians have had to flee, and these towns have essentially become ghost towns because they’ve cleared Christians out. In October of last year, there was a massacre in one of these towns where more than 45 people died and hundreds were injured just because it was a Christian-dominated town.“Syria is experiencing a whole new level of persecution and violence of Christians,” said Fuentes, noting that Syria is now the third worst persecutor of Christians, skyrocketing from the 36th spot it held just two years ago.Written in blood about lives of grace, “Foxe: Voices of the Martyrs” celebrates the indomitable human spirit that arises in love against tyranny and torture. More than a book, it is every Christian’s heritage of courage.While Syria is the most deadly spot on earth for Christians, Fuentes said it fits a pattern in the Islamic world. She noted, of the 50 worst nations for persecution, 37 of them are Muslim. Fuentes said another disturbing twist is the melding of radical Islam with communist and other totalitarian ideologies.“Some of (Christians in persecuted nations) experience different forms of persecution or combined forms of persecution. An example would be some of the central Asian countries, like Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan and all those. You might still see persecution that comes from the the former days of the USSR, a little bit of lingering communism, where the government is sending officials to monitor churches and monitor any Christian activities and secretly spying on Christians and using governmental tactics,” Fuentes said.“But you’re also seeing extreme Islam blended into that. So not only are they worried about the government, but they’re worried about sections of the government that are Islamic extremists or groups that are Islamic extremists coming in to attack them,” she said.Nine of the worst 10 nations for Christians are Islamic. In addition to Syria in third slot, Somalia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, Maldives, Pakistan, Iran and Yemen are among the worst of the worst.But for 12 years running now, the communist North Korean regime is at the top of the list, and Fuentes said things there are only getting worse there.“It is the most hostile place to be a Christian. It is an act punishable by death in North Korea to be a Christian, either by execution sometimes on the spot or execution very soon after finding out about your faith,” said Fuentes, who explained that those who are not killed are sent to Nazi-like concentration camps. She also said the pain inflicted by the regime goes far beyond the Christians themselves.“The moral dilemma that North Korean Christians have that’s unlike any other place in the world is that if their faith is discovered, not only them but up to three generations of their family could be forced to go to these labor camps. So that’s their parents, their children, their grandchildren, all because of their faith in Christ,” she said.The biggest movers on this year’s list were the Central African Republic, leaping to 16th after not even being on the list last year, and Mali, which dropped from seventh in 2012 to 33rd this year. Fuentes said although it is a majority Christian nation, Islamic groups have infiltrated the cities and have been targeting Christians for death. She said 13 pastors have been slain there in just the past couple of months.Mali is the opposite story. International military action rooted many radical Islamists from that nation and greater religious freedom has emerged, although Fuentes hastens to add that any nation on the list is a nightmare for believers.Fuentes said the annual World Watch List is designed for multiple purposes, including the desire to attract more media attention to the surge of persecution around the world, alert public officials to address these problems and inform pastors and believers around the nation. However, she said all of those take a backseat to the No. 1 goal.“The No. 1 thing that persecuted Christians ask for in every country is our prayers. It’s not Bibles. It’s not money. It’s prayers, and they know that prayer is the most powerful thing. It can change the hearts of leaders who may not be as drawn to sharing the message of persecuted Christians. It can even change the heart of dictators like Kim Jong-Un,” Fuentes said.
The following is the full list:
1) North Korea-2) Somalia-3) Syria-4) Iraq-5) Afghanistan-6) Saudi Arabia-7) Maldives-8) Pakistan
9) Iran-10) Yemen-11) Sudan-12) Eritrea-13) Libya-14) Nigeria-15) Uzbekistan-16) Central African Republic-17) Ethiopia-18) Vietnam-19) Qatar-20) Turkmenistan-21) Laos-22) Egypt-23) Myanmar (Burma)-24) Brunei-25) Colombia-26) Jordan-27) Oman-28) India-29) Sri Lanka-30) Tunisia-31) Bhutan

Troops take to Belgian streets to guard against attacks-Reuters-JAN 17,15-YAHOONEWS
BRUSSELS (Reuters) - Belgium is deploying hundreds of troops to guard potential targets of terrorism, including Jewish sites and diplomatic missions, following a series of raids and arrests, the defence minister said on Saturday.Up to 300 military will be stationed at locations such as the U.S. and Israeli embassies in Brussels and NATO and EU institutions.Troops will reinforce police at least until Thursday, when authorities will review the national threat level, set at 3 on a scale of 4 this week."It's very important to say that this wasn't a simple decision. But it was necessary, at a time when police are overly engaged, for the army to enter in a supporting role," Defense Minister Steven Vandeput told reporters.On Thursday, two gunmen were killed in the Belgian town of Verviers during raids on an Islamist group that authorities said was planning to attack police.(Reporting by Robert-Jan Bartunek and Barbara Lewis; editing by Andrew Roche)
Russia says Mohammed cartoon publication illegal-AFP-By Maria Antonova-JAN 17,15-YAHOONEWS
Moscow (AFP) - Russia's media watchdog on Friday warned publications that printing cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed was against the country's law and ethical norms following the Charlie Hebdo attack in France."The publication in Russian media of such caricatures go against ethical and moral norms worked out over centuries," said the media and communications watchdog Roskomnadzor."Disseminating caricatures on religious themes in the media can be considered insulting or humiliating to the representatives of religious confessions and groups, and qualified as inciting ethnic and religious hatred", an offence under Russian law, it said.The publication would also violate the Russian media and anti-extremism laws, the watchdog said, adding that it was asking Russian media to "refrain from publishing caricatures that can be seen as a violation".The watchdog published the statement as a response to the ongoing debate on the "legality of publishing caricatures depicting religious objects of worship which affect feelings of religious people."Many newspapers and magazines around the world reprinted cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed by Charlie Hebdo, whose Paris office was attacked by Islamist gunmen on January 7, leading to the deaths of 12 people.Although Russia's leadership extended its condolences to France, and Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov participated in the unity march staged at the weekend, pro-Kremlin commentators and Muslims accused the cartoonists of provoking the attack.Russia's Council of Muftis - a top Muslim authority - condemned the attack, but said that "perhaps the sin of provocation... is no less dangerous for peace than the sin of those who yield to the provocation".It further said Charlie Hebdo's post-attack issue featuring a cartoon of the Prophet Mohammed on the front page was an "unacceptable response" to the shooting, because one "cannot laugh at the feelings of the faithful."In a letter to Russia's Prosecutor General, the council chairman and Russia's top Muslim cleric, Ravil Gainutdin, asked authorities to "take necessary measures to prevent publications that defame the Prophet Mohammed" by monitoring Russian media to verify the prohibition is being respected.None of Russia's top papers ran the cartoon, but some included pictures of it on their websites.Kommersant daily reported a scuffle Thursday in a Moscow mosque, where a group of men tried to disrupt prayers and urge believers to go storm the French Embassy.
- Huge rallies planned -
AFP observed heavy security presence around the French Embassy in central Moscow Friday including riot police and interior troops, with dozens of vehicles parked along the street and metal barricades around the compound.Russia is an overwhelmingly Orthodox Christian country, but is also home to a sizeable Muslim minority in Tatarstan on the Volga river and in the North Caucasus. Most of migrant labourers in large cities like Moscow also come from Muslim countries of Central Asia.Several rallies have been announced next week by Muslims opposing the cartoons, including one in Chechnya's main city Grozny.Chechnya's leader Ramzan Kadyrov said those who drew Mohammed cartoons were "people without spiritual and moral values" and said that 500,000 people would participate in the rally scheduled for Monday morning. Meanwhile some protesters who have picketed in support of Charlie Hebdo have been punished. Moscow's Tverskoy District Court on Friday sentenced Mark Galperin, an opposition activist who held up a "Je Suis Charlie" poster near the Kremlin last Saturday, to eight days of arrest.Another picketer, 75-year-old Vladimir Ionov, was fined. Both were found guilty of staging an unsanctioned public event.

Churches torched in Charlie Hebdo protests, as France defends free speech-UPDATED: 17 Jan 2015 22:55-CNA
PARIS: A violent mob torched at least three churches in Niger's capital Niamey on Saturday (Jan 17) during fresh protests against Charlie Hebdo magazine, as France's president stressed his commitment to "freedom of expression".Around 1,000 youths wielding iron bars, clubs and axes rampaged through the city, hurling rocks at police who responded with tear gas in a second day of violent demonstrations against the satirical magazine's publication of the Prophet Mohammed.The French embassy in Niamey urged its citizens to stay at home, the day after a rally against Charlie Hebdo in the country's second city of Zinder left four dead and 45 injured. "Be very cautious, avoid going out," the embassy said on its website as rioters also ransacked several French-linked businesses, including telephone kiosks run by Orange.In his first reaction to the violence, which also erupted in Pakistan on Friday, President Francois Hollande stressed on Saturday that France was committed to "freedom of expression".Some 15,000 people also rallied in Russia's Muslim North Caucasus region of Ingushetia against Charlie Hebdo, which depicted on its most recent cover a weeping prophet holding a "Je suis Charlie" sign.
THEY HAVE TO BE PUNISHED
Meanwhile, jittery European nations stepped up security in the wake of last week's attacks in France that claimed 17 lives, including 12 at Charlie Hebdo's offices. Belgium began deploying hundreds of armed troops to patrol the streets after security forces smashed a suspected "terrorist" cell planning to kill police officers.And in London, authorities were mulling "further measures" to protect police "given some of the deliberate targeting of the police we have seen in a number of countries across Europe and the world," said Mark Rowley, head of counter-terrorism for the British police. British police officers, for the most part unarmed, might be equipped with taser guns as part of reinforced security measures, according to the local press.Traffic was suspended in the Channel Tunnel between France and Britain after smoke was spotted, but there was no immediate indication if there was a link to recent attacks.French and Belgian authorities were grilling suspected accomplices both of the Paris gunmen and the alleged "terrorist" cell raided in eastern Belgium. Belgian police were hunting for the suspected mastermind of the cell, a notorious 27-year-old militant who spent time in Syria and who may have prepared the foiled attack from bases in Greece and Turkey, according to local media.Asked about protesters who burned the French flag, Hollande said: "They have to be punished because when it happens in France, it's intolerable, but also abroad. I'm thinking of countries where sometimes they don't understand what freedom of expression is because they have been deprived of it. But also, we have supported these countries in their fight against terrorism," said Hollande as he toured a market in his heartland of Tulle, central France.
SECRET BURIAL
Said Kouachi, one of the militant brothers who gunned down 12 people at Charlie Hebdo's offices before being cut down by security forces in a siege, has already been buried in secret, it emerged on Saturday. He was buried Friday in the eastern city of Reims, where he lived for around two years, under heavy police protection and with a handful of family members present, according to a well-informed source.His grave was unmarked and the name of the cemetery not divulged. His brother Cherif was expected to be buried soon in the Paris suburb of Gennevilliers.The mayor of Reims, Arnaud Robinet, said he was forced by law to accept the burial but was initially opposed to the gunman being buried in his city. He feared "a tomb that could become a shrine for people to gather around or a pilgrimage site for fanatics". Said Kouachi's wife decided not to attend the burial, in order to keep it secret, said her lawyer Antoine Flasaquier. "She is now relieved that her husband has been buried with discretion and dignity," said the lawyer.Charlie Hebdo, which has flown off the shelves in record numbers since the attacks, announced on Saturday it would extend its print run to seven million copies. Before the assault on its Paris headquarters, Charlie Hebdo had a circulation of around 30,000, with only a handful being sold abroad.Touring the cheese and meat stands in the Tulle market, Hollande urged the locals to pick up where they left off before the worst attacks on French soil in half a century. His visit was "a message to show that life goes on, that we have come through the ordeal with a great deal of dignity and efficiency.""We are of course aware that there are still threats ... there were arrests that were carried out in the past few days, but life has to go on and we even need to emerge stronger. That's the best response we can give."- AFP/al
France's Hollande defends freedom of speech after anti-Hebdo clashes abroad-Reuters-By Leigh Thomas-JAN 17,15-YAHOONEWS
PARIS (Reuters) - French President Francois Hollande said on Saturday that anti-Charlie Hebdo protesters in other countries do not understand France's attachment to freedom of speech.He was speaking a day after the satirical weekly's publication of a cartoon of the Prophet Mohammad sparked violent clashes, including deaths, in some Muslim countries.Demand has surged for Charlie Hebdo's first issue since two militant gunmen burst into its weekly editorial conference and shot dead 12 people at the start of three days of violence that shocked France.The magazine's distributors said that its print run had been lifted to seven million copies, dwarfing its usual circulation of only 60,000.A cartoon image of Mohammad on its front page outraged many in the Muslim world, triggering demonstrations that turned violent in Algeria, Niger and Pakistan on Friday."We've supported these countries in the fight against terrorism," Hollande said during a visit to the southern city of Tulle, traditionally his political fiefdom."I still want to express my solidarity (towards them), but at the same time France has principles and values, in particular freedom of expression," he added.The shootings in Paris were prompted by Charlie Hebdo's previous publication of Mohammad cartoons, a depiction many Muslims consider blasphemous.Police in Niger fired teargas on Saturday at hundreds of rock-throwing protesters in a second day of clashes over Charlie Hebdo's publication of the image.A police officer and three civilians were killed on Friday in the Zinder, the second city of the former French colony, while churches were burned and Christian homes looted.Protests also turned violent on Friday in the southern Pakistan city of Karachi where police used tear gas and a water cannon against demonstrators outside the French consulate.A photographer for French news agency Agence France-Presse was also wounded by a gunshot during the protest.Several Algerian police officers were injured in clashes with demonstrators in Algiers after rioting broke out at the end of a protest."There are tensions abroad where people don't understand our attachment to the freedom of speech," Hollande said. "We've seen the protests, and I would say that in France all beliefs are respected."Produced by survivors of the attack on the newspaper, the latest edition of Charlie Hebdo sold out in minutes when it hit newsstands on Wednesday. It shows a cartoon of a tearful Mohammad holding a "Je suis Charlie" sign under the words "All is forgiven."A lawyer for one of the gunmen in the Charlie Hebdo attack said the man had been buried in the eastern city of Reims in an unmarked grave so as not to attract admirers.(Additional reporting by Gregory Blachier Editing by Jeremy Gaunt)

37 Muslim nations persecuting Christians-Radical Islam melding with communist, totalitarian ideologies-Published: 01/11/2014 at 7:38 PM-WND
The number of Christian martyrs was twice as high in 2013 as the year before, and radical Islamist governments and groups are responsible for the vast majority of deaths and persecution around the world, according to the 2014 World Watch List.As WND reported, Open Doors USA, which assists the persecuted church around the world, compiled the World Watch list and reports 2,123 Christians were killed for their faith last year, compared to 1,201 in 2012. In fact, the killings in Syria alone (1,213) trumped the total from a year earlier.“The target of violence is mainly taking place mainly from rebel groups who are Islamic extremists, so these are jihadists practicing extreme Islam and are targeting Christian areas,” said Emily Fuentes, communications director at Open Doors USA. “Many of these Christians have had to flee, and these towns have essentially become ghost towns because they’ve cleared Christians out. In October of last year, there was a massacre in one of these towns where more than 45 people died and hundreds were injured just because it was a Christian-dominated town.“Syria is experiencing a whole new level of persecution and violence of Christians,” said Fuentes, noting that Syria is now the third worst persecutor of Christians, skyrocketing from the 36th spot it held just two years ago.Written in blood about lives of grace, “Foxe: Voices of the Martyrs” celebrates the indomitable human spirit that arises in love against tyranny and torture. More than a book, it is every Christian’s heritage of courage.While Syria is the most deadly spot on earth for Christians, Fuentes said it fits a pattern in the Islamic world. She noted, of the 50 worst nations for persecution, 37 of them are Muslim. Fuentes said another disturbing twist is the melding of radical Islam with communist and other totalitarian ideologies.“Some of (Christians in persecuted nations) experience different forms of persecution or combined forms of persecution. An example would be some of the central Asian countries, like Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan and all those. You might still see persecution that comes from the the former days of the USSR, a little bit of lingering communism, where the government is sending officials to monitor churches and monitor any Christian activities and secretly spying on Christians and using governmental tactics,” Fuentes said.“But you’re also seeing extreme Islam blended into that. So not only are they worried about the government, but they’re worried about sections of the government that are Islamic extremists or groups that are Islamic extremists coming in to attack them,” she said.Nine of the worst 10 nations for Christians are Islamic. In addition to Syria in third slot, Somalia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, Maldives, Pakistan, Iran and Yemen are among the worst of the worst.But for 12 years running now, the communist North Korean regime is at the top of the list, and Fuentes said things there are only getting worse there.“It is the most hostile place to be a Christian. It is an act punishable by death in North Korea to be a Christian, either by execution sometimes on the spot or execution very soon after finding out about your faith,” said Fuentes, who explained that those who are not killed are sent to Nazi-like concentration camps. She also said the pain inflicted by the regime goes far beyond the Christians themselves.“The moral dilemma that North Korean Christians have that’s unlike any other place in the world is that if their faith is discovered, not only them but up to three generations of their family could be forced to go to these labor camps. So that’s their parents, their children, their grandchildren, all because of their faith in Christ,” she said.The biggest movers on this year’s list were the Central African Republic, leaping to 16th after not even being on the list last year, and Mali, which dropped from seventh in 2012 to 33rd this year. Fuentes said although it is a majority Christian nation, Islamic groups have infiltrated the cities and have been targeting Christians for death. She said 13 pastors have been slain there in just the past couple of months.Mali is the opposite story. International military action rooted many radical Islamists from that nation and greater religious freedom has emerged, although Fuentes hastens to add that any nation on the list is a nightmare for believers.Fuentes said the annual World Watch List is designed for multiple purposes, including the desire to attract more media attention to the surge of persecution around the world, alert public officials to address these problems and inform pastors and believers around the nation. However, she said all of those take a backseat to the No. 1 goal.“The No. 1 thing that persecuted Christians ask for in every country is our prayers. It’s not Bibles. It’s not money. It’s prayers, and they know that prayer is the most powerful thing. It can change the hearts of leaders who may not be as drawn to sharing the message of persecuted Christians. It can even change the heart of dictators like Kim Jong-Un,” Fuentes said.
The following is the full list:
1) North Korea-2) Somalia-3) Syria-4) Iraq-5) Afghanistan-6) Saudi Arabia-7) Maldives-8) Pakistan
9) Iran-10) Yemen-11) Sudan-12) Eritrea-13) Libya-14) Nigeria-15) Uzbekistan-16) Central African Republic-17) Ethiopia-18) Vietnam-19) Qatar-20) Turkmenistan-21) Laos-22) Egypt-23) Myanmar (Burma)-24) Brunei-25) Colombia-26) Jordan-27) Oman-28) India-29) Sri Lanka-30) Tunisia-31) Bhutan

Troops take to Belgian streets to guard against attacks-Reuters-JAN 17,15-YAHOONEWS
BRUSSELS (Reuters) - Belgium is deploying hundreds of troops to guard potential targets of terrorism, including Jewish sites and diplomatic missions, following a series of raids and arrests, the defence minister said on Saturday.Up to 300 military will be stationed at locations such as the U.S. and Israeli embassies in Brussels and NATO and EU institutions.Troops will reinforce police at least until Thursday, when authorities will review the national threat level, set at 3 on a scale of 4 this week."It's very important to say that this wasn't a simple decision. But it was necessary, at a time when police are overly engaged, for the army to enter in a supporting role," Defense Minister Steven Vandeput told reporters.On Thursday, two gunmen were killed in the Belgian town of Verviers during raids on an Islamist group that authorities said was planning to attack police.(Reporting by Robert-Jan Bartunek and Barbara Lewis; editing by Andrew Roche)
Russia says Mohammed cartoon publication illegal-AFP-By Maria Antonova-JAN 17,15-YAHOONEWS
Moscow (AFP) - Russia's media watchdog on Friday warned publications that printing cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed was against the country's law and ethical norms following the Charlie Hebdo attack in France."The publication in Russian media of such caricatures go against ethical and moral norms worked out over centuries," said the media and communications watchdog Roskomnadzor."Disseminating caricatures on religious themes in the media can be considered insulting or humiliating to the representatives of religious confessions and groups, and qualified as inciting ethnic and religious hatred", an offence under Russian law, it said.The publication would also violate the Russian media and anti-extremism laws, the watchdog said, adding that it was asking Russian media to "refrain from publishing caricatures that can be seen as a violation".The watchdog published the statement as a response to the ongoing debate on the "legality of publishing caricatures depicting religious objects of worship which affect feelings of religious people."Many newspapers and magazines around the world reprinted cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed by Charlie Hebdo, whose Paris office was attacked by Islamist gunmen on January 7, leading to the deaths of 12 people.Although Russia's leadership extended its condolences to France, and Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov participated in the unity march staged at the weekend, pro-Kremlin commentators and Muslims accused the cartoonists of provoking the attack.Russia's Council of Muftis - a top Muslim authority - condemned the attack, but said that "perhaps the sin of provocation... is no less dangerous for peace than the sin of those who yield to the provocation".It further said Charlie Hebdo's post-attack issue featuring a cartoon of the Prophet Mohammed on the front page was an "unacceptable response" to the shooting, because one "cannot laugh at the feelings of the faithful."In a letter to Russia's Prosecutor General, the council chairman and Russia's top Muslim cleric, Ravil Gainutdin, asked authorities to "take necessary measures to prevent publications that defame the Prophet Mohammed" by monitoring Russian media to verify the prohibition is being respected.None of Russia's top papers ran the cartoon, but some included pictures of it on their websites.Kommersant daily reported a scuffle Thursday in a Moscow mosque, where a group of men tried to disrupt prayers and urge believers to go storm the French Embassy.
- Huge rallies planned -
AFP observed heavy security presence around the French Embassy in central Moscow Friday including riot police and interior troops, with dozens of vehicles parked along the street and metal barricades around the compound.Russia is an overwhelmingly Orthodox Christian country, but is also home to a sizeable Muslim minority in Tatarstan on the Volga river and in the North Caucasus. Most of migrant labourers in large cities like Moscow also come from Muslim countries of Central Asia.Several rallies have been announced next week by Muslims opposing the cartoons, including one in Chechnya's main city Grozny.Chechnya's leader Ramzan Kadyrov said those who drew Mohammed cartoons were "people without spiritual and moral values" and said that 500,000 people would participate in the rally scheduled for Monday morning. Meanwhile some protesters who have picketed in support of Charlie Hebdo have been punished. Moscow's Tverskoy District Court on Friday sentenced Mark Galperin, an opposition activist who held up a "Je Suis Charlie" poster near the Kremlin last Saturday, to eight days of arrest.Another picketer, 75-year-old Vladimir Ionov, was fined. Both were found guilty of staging an unsanctioned public event.

Churches torched in Charlie Hebdo protests, as France defends free speech-UPDATED: 17 Jan 2015 22:55-CNA
PARIS: A violent mob torched at least three churches in Niger's capital Niamey on Saturday (Jan 17) during fresh protests against Charlie Hebdo magazine, as France's president stressed his commitment to "freedom of expression".Around 1,000 youths wielding iron bars, clubs and axes rampaged through the city, hurling rocks at police who responded with tear gas in a second day of violent demonstrations against the satirical magazine's publication of the Prophet Mohammed.The French embassy in Niamey urged its citizens to stay at home, the day after a rally against Charlie Hebdo in the country's second city of Zinder left four dead and 45 injured. "Be very cautious, avoid going out," the embassy said on its website as rioters also ransacked several French-linked businesses, including telephone kiosks run by Orange.In his first reaction to the violence, which also erupted in Pakistan on Friday, President Francois Hollande stressed on Saturday that France was committed to "freedom of expression".Some 15,000 people also rallied in Russia's Muslim North Caucasus region of Ingushetia against Charlie Hebdo, which depicted on its most recent cover a weeping prophet holding a "Je suis Charlie" sign.
THEY HAVE TO BE PUNISHED
Meanwhile, jittery European nations stepped up security in the wake of last week's attacks in France that claimed 17 lives, including 12 at Charlie Hebdo's offices. Belgium began deploying hundreds of armed troops to patrol the streets after security forces smashed a suspected "terrorist" cell planning to kill police officers.And in London, authorities were mulling "further measures" to protect police "given some of the deliberate targeting of the police we have seen in a number of countries across Europe and the world," said Mark Rowley, head of counter-terrorism for the British police. British police officers, for the most part unarmed, might be equipped with taser guns as part of reinforced security measures, according to the local press.Traffic was suspended in the Channel Tunnel between France and Britain after smoke was spotted, but there was no immediate indication if there was a link to recent attacks.French and Belgian authorities were grilling suspected accomplices both of the Paris gunmen and the alleged "terrorist" cell raided in eastern Belgium. Belgian police were hunting for the suspected mastermind of the cell, a notorious 27-year-old militant who spent time in Syria and who may have prepared the foiled attack from bases in Greece and Turkey, according to local media.Asked about protesters who burned the French flag, Hollande said: "They have to be punished because when it happens in France, it's intolerable, but also abroad. I'm thinking of countries where sometimes they don't understand what freedom of expression is because they have been deprived of it. But also, we have supported these countries in their fight against terrorism," said Hollande as he toured a market in his heartland of Tulle, central France.
SECRET BURIAL
Said Kouachi, one of the militant brothers who gunned down 12 people at Charlie Hebdo's offices before being cut down by security forces in a siege, has already been buried in secret, it emerged on Saturday. He was buried Friday in the eastern city of Reims, where he lived for around two years, under heavy police protection and with a handful of family members present, according to a well-informed source.His grave was unmarked and the name of the cemetery not divulged. His brother Cherif was expected to be buried soon in the Paris suburb of Gennevilliers.The mayor of Reims, Arnaud Robinet, said he was forced by law to accept the burial but was initially opposed to the gunman being buried in his city. He feared "a tomb that could become a shrine for people to gather around or a pilgrimage site for fanatics". Said Kouachi's wife decided not to attend the burial, in order to keep it secret, said her lawyer Antoine Flasaquier. "She is now relieved that her husband has been buried with discretion and dignity," said the lawyer.Charlie Hebdo, which has flown off the shelves in record numbers since the attacks, announced on Saturday it would extend its print run to seven million copies. Before the assault on its Paris headquarters, Charlie Hebdo had a circulation of around 30,000, with only a handful being sold abroad.Touring the cheese and meat stands in the Tulle market, Hollande urged the locals to pick up where they left off before the worst attacks on French soil in half a century. His visit was "a message to show that life goes on, that we have come through the ordeal with a great deal of dignity and efficiency.""We are of course aware that there are still threats ... there were arrests that were carried out in the past few days, but life has to go on and we even need to emerge stronger. That's the best response we can give."- AFP/al
France's Hollande defends freedom of speech after anti-Hebdo clashes abroad-Reuters-By Leigh Thomas-JAN 17,15-YAHOONEWS
PARIS (Reuters) - French President Francois Hollande said on Saturday that anti-Charlie Hebdo protesters in other countries do not understand France's attachment to freedom of speech.He was speaking a day after the satirical weekly's publication of a cartoon of the Prophet Mohammad sparked violent clashes, including deaths, in some Muslim countries.Demand has surged for Charlie Hebdo's first issue since two militant gunmen burst into its weekly editorial conference and shot dead 12 people at the start of three days of violence that shocked France.The magazine's distributors said that its print run had been lifted to seven million copies, dwarfing its usual circulation of only 60,000.A cartoon image of Mohammad on its front page outraged many in the Muslim world, triggering demonstrations that turned violent in Algeria, Niger and Pakistan on Friday."We've supported these countries in the fight against terrorism," Hollande said during a visit to the southern city of Tulle, traditionally his political fiefdom."I still want to express my solidarity (towards them), but at the same time France has principles and values, in particular freedom of expression," he added.The shootings in Paris were prompted by Charlie Hebdo's previous publication of Mohammad cartoons, a depiction many Muslims consider blasphemous.Police in Niger fired teargas on Saturday at hundreds of rock-throwing protesters in a second day of clashes over Charlie Hebdo's publication of the image.A police officer and three civilians were killed on Friday in the Zinder, the second city of the former French colony, while churches were burned and Christian homes looted.Protests also turned violent on Friday in the southern Pakistan city of Karachi where police used tear gas and a water cannon against demonstrators outside the French consulate.A photographer for French news agency Agence France-Presse was also wounded by a gunshot during the protest.Several Algerian police officers were injured in clashes with demonstrators in Algiers after rioting broke out at the end of a protest."There are tensions abroad where people don't understand our attachment to the freedom of speech," Hollande said. "We've seen the protests, and I would say that in France all beliefs are respected."Produced by survivors of the attack on the newspaper, the latest edition of Charlie Hebdo sold out in minutes when it hit newsstands on Wednesday. It shows a cartoon of a tearful Mohammad holding a "Je suis Charlie" sign under the words "All is forgiven."A lawyer for one of the gunmen in the Charlie Hebdo attack said the man had been buried in the eastern city of Reims in an unmarked grave so as not to attract admirers.(Additional reporting by Gregory Blachier Editing by Jeremy Gaunt)
