Charlie Hebdo are not responsible for what happened, on the other hand, the first cover they printer after the attack was offensive to all Muslims.The chief tenet of Atheism is the belief that there is no god, not that you should be nice to people regardless of their beliefs. Of course being kind is an important character trait but I wouldn't say it is the most important issue in Atheism itself, just as kindness isn't the most important issue for Theists.
Charlie Hebdo doesn't need to be nice. It is a satirical magazine. It ridicules to improve society. While people in this case have died in the process of improving society, I think Europe as a whole will benefit from this attack since more and more people get to know the true evil that is Islam.
That's not satire, it's crass.
