Muslims are victims, not perpetrators - Paris atrocities

Friday night’s atrocities in Paris were not just an attack on the French capital but an assault on all our freedoms and on humanity itself.

The attacks will undoubtedly lead to increased security measures not just in France but in the rest of the EU, Ireland included. It would be foolish to imagine that we might be somehow immune from such attacks.

But while we mourn in solidarity with the people of France and grieve for the victims, it is important not to let fear, anger, or revenge guide our collective response.
