Fox figures [on TV] have falsely suggested the Muslim community has not condemned the terror attack on the satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo in Paris, France despite the fact that Muslim leaders, advocacy groups and organizations, and leaders of Arab states have roundly denounced the attacks -- a fact that Fox reported on its website, but left off air [where most of its older audience is: TV watchers]
See underlined quoted below FOX TV hosts saying OVER and OVER again they have heard “no” condemnations…then their website shows and Media Matters gives many other examplse of the condemnations that FOX TV (which tries to blame 1 billion Muslims for the tiny fraction of that 1 billion that are brutal, inasane and fanatic (and often FUNDED by U.S. [e.g. how Taleban came about) or by U.S. Ally: Saudi money (for ISIS) while Saudi dictatorship barely gets more than a pat on the wrist by Reagan, Bush Sr, Clinton, George W Bush, and now Obama...only Israel gets more "soft globes" but Saudi dictatorship gets second place "soft gloves"...
Get the picture:
1) U.S. elites fund murderous ultra jihadists
2) U.S. elites fund and support diplomatically and economically and with arms sales, the world’s most extreme version of Islam based country: Saudis (far more than even Iran) but also through U.S.-backed pro-ISIS pro-Al Nusra terrorists regimes like Turkey, Qatar, etc, BACKED by Washington
3) These murderers (created by the West and the Wests’ cronies) kill mostly Muslim victims
4) These fanatics also sometimes murder people in the West
5) Right-wing fanatic media who have CHEERED for 1) and for 2) and ignored 3) now as usual insinuate we should hate all 1 billion Muslims (apparently including that we should “hate” the Muslims murdered by the extremist-mulsims funded directly or indirectly by our leaders in Washington??)

According to The New York Times, French President Francois Hollande quickly condemned the shooting as a terrorist attack ”of exceptional barbarism” and raised the nation’s security alert. [The New York Times, 1/7/15]
Fox’s Monica Crowley: “I Haven’t Heard Any Condemnation” Of The Paris Attack From Muslim Groups. While discussing reactions to the Charlie Hebdo attack on the January 7 edition of Fox News’ The Real Story, contributor Monica Crowley argued that Muslims “should be condemning” the attack and that she hadn’t “heard any condemnation.” [Fox News, The Real Story, 1/7/15]
Fox Guest: “You Don’t See Denunciations Of Radical Islam … By Mainstream Islamic Groups.” In a discussion of the Paris attack on the January 7 edition of Fox News’ America’s Newsroom, guest Steve Emerson, executive director of the Investigative Project on Terrorism, claimed that “you don’t see denunciations of radical Islam, by name, by mainstream Islamic groups.” [Fox News, America's Newsroom, 1/7/15]
Fox Host Bob Beckel: Muslim Groups Like CAIR Keep “Their Mouth Shut When Things Happen.” While discussing the Charlie Hebdo attack in Paris during January 7 edition of Fox News’ The Five, host Bob Beckel criticized Howard Dean for suggesting that the terrorists were like a cult, and claimed that Muslims as a whole are “being quiet.” He went on to accuse the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) of keeping “their mouth shut when things happen.” [Fox News, The Five, 1/7/15]
On FoxNews.Com, Ahmadiyya Muslim Community USA Spokesperson Condemns Paris Attack. During a January 7 interview with Fox host Gregg Jarett on FoxNews.com [WEBSITE YES BUT NOT ON TV], Ahmadiyya Muslim Community USA Spokesperson Qasim Rashid condemned the attack in Paris and refuted the notion that Islam is inherently violent (emphasis added):
JARRETT: Do you think more Muslims in the Muslim-American community need to speak up and, like you, condemn this kind of attack?
RASHID: I think Muslims are doing a very good job of speaking up. And I think there’s an important conversation to be had about recognizing that this is not an Islamic act of terror — this is just an act of terror done by people claiming to ascribe to Islam. When we study Islam, we see clearly that the Quran condemns this kind of violence categorically. That Prophet Muhammad said that a Muslim is one from whom all others are safe. [...]
JARRETT: If, as you say, the Quran condemns this kind of violence, why is it these Islamic extremists, these terrorists use the Quran as justification for committing these kinds of violent acts?
RASHID: Well, it’s the same reason why any extremist group uses scripture. There’s no shortage of extremists in everything. Let’s not forget the Lord’s Resistance Army, a Ugandan terrorist group, that claims to be Christian. And I would vehemently argue against anyone who would blame the bible, or Jesus Christ, for their acts of terrorism. This is not about religion. This is about political power, this is about uneducated, ignorant youth who are being manipulated by clerics and extremists. And this is why it’s all the more important for us, as the moderates, regardless of faith, to stay united and combat this. [FoxNews.com, 1/7/15]

ANOTHER U.S.-BACKED REGIME SUPPORTING ISIS, JUST TO HELP WASHINGTON OVERTHROW THE MILDER (BY FAR) REGIMES THAT WASHINGTON DOESN’T LIKE:
Council On American-Islamic Relations: “We Strongly Condemn This Brutal And Cowardly Attack.” CAIR strongly condemned the attack, calling it “brutal and cowardly,” and used the opportunity to reiterate the organization’s “repudiation of any such assault on freedom of speech, even speech that mocks faiths and religious figures”:
“We strongly condemn this brutal and cowardly attack and reiterate our repudiation of any such assault on freedom of speech, even speech that mocks faiths and religious figures. The proper response to such attacks on the freedoms we hold dear is not to vilify any faith, but instead to marginalize extremists of all backgrounds who seek to stifle freedom and to create or widen societal divisions.
“We offer sincere condolences to the families and loved ones of those killed or injured in this attack. We also call for the swift apprehension of the perpetrators, who should be punished to the full extent of the law.” [Council on American-Islamic Relations, 1/7/15]

Yes I know I am combining two thing: 1. Fox and other conservatives shows pretending they can’t hear the MANY Muslim voices who condemn terror, and 2. cartoons showing the REAL source of Islamic Terrorism (which more often than not, kills fellow MUSLIMS deemed not religious enough, but U.S. media doesn’t cover that in depth either, neither Fox nor “liberals” ones)
