This Might Not End Well of the Day: The offices of Paris-based satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo were firebombed last week after it posted a caricature of the prophet Muhammad on the cover of an issue criticising the rise of Sharia law in the post-Arab Spring Middle East.
The weekly quickly rebounded with the help of local authorities, and its next issue is set to hit newsstands this Wednesday.
However, rather than tone down its firebomb-inducing irreverence in light of the recent attack, Charlie Hebdo has decided instead to double down by running a front-page cartoon depicting Muhammad making out with the publication’s editor, Charb, beneath the words “love is stronger than hate.”
To the employees of Charlie Hebdo: Now would be a good time to invest in bulletproof everything.
