I put it in a subsequent eta to an earlier post, but then saw that a bunch of people had responded to that one in between, so I thought I had put it where no one would see it.

Maybe it wasn't exactly religious extremism. Maybe it was anti-France extremism, and they picked Charlie Hebdo because it seemed really, really French. And anti-Muslim, but maybe that was more of an outsider thing than a religious thing.
