]]> A million people are expected to gather in central Paris today showing their rejection of the extremism that led two French jihadis to kill 12 people at a magazine that had lampooned Islam….

….and another to kill four people at a Jewish grocery store.

In South Africa, French Ambassador Elizabeth Barbier will lead a rally at Zoo Lake in Johannesburg. Others will be held in Cape Town and Durban.

World leaders will join the gathering in Paris, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, British premier David Cameron and Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy have said they’ll be there.

They’ll be protected by six thousand police.

France remains on a highest state of alert even though the hostage-takers died in deadly gunbattles with police.

The search for their accomplices continues.

French Prime Minister Manuel Valls says France must remain outraged forever at the worst terrorist attack in more than 50 years.
