    Difficult to judge as they don't show the cartoon.
    I just went on French sites and saw them. As usual, not my cup of tea, but really, sacrilege?
    However, the charge of sacrilege doesn't exist yet in France.
    Then, the ancestor of Charlie mocked the death of the French President and WW2 heroe Charles de Gaulle.

    And they don't make fun. The cartoon just highlights the fact that this is an attack following Russian attack on Jihadists.
    As the drawing of the drowned kid was highlighting the fact that less than 2 weeks after his death nobody cared anymore, with Hungary re-creating a Berlin wall, without not any real outcry of indignation of the "free" world.

    "You did, sarge", said Polly." You said you were in few last stands."
    "Yeah, lad. But I was holding the metal"
