That's a fair point, the article I quoted does not mention if these people were on the 'right' or not. However, by saying "far right", I was trying to imply that extremists from that side would carry out acts on Muslims, much like extremist Muslims attacking the Hebdo.

I assumed these attacks would come from the right because of a culture of Islamophobia that I've seen on places like Fox news, which I consider to be a far right media outlet. For example:
