It appears that the tragic shootings at the Charlie Hebdo offices have not changed the newspaper’s mentality, as Wednesday’s edition will also feature cartoons of Mohammed. Per the newspaper’s lawyer Richard Malka:
“We will not give in otherwise all this won’t have meant anything,” he told France Info radio on Monday, which broadcast from the magazine’s heavily guarded temporary offices at Libération newspaper.
“Humour without self-deprecation isn’t humour. We mock ourselves, politicians, religions, it’s a state of mind you need to have.”
“The Charlie state of mind is the right to blaspheme,” he went on.
Charlie Hebdo looks to press many more issues this week, so this will be a big statement to those who oppose drawing Mohammed.
