Mohammed Suis Charlie

Mohammed Suis Charlie

Credit goes to where it belongs. Above is the cover of the next edition of Charlie Hebdo, the satirical French magazine where 12 staffers — including some of the nation’s most famous cartoonists — were gunned down by Muslim fanatics on Jan. 7.

It’s an image of Mohammed, crying, while holding a Je Suis Charlie sign. The headline translates to “All is Forgiven”.

That’s about as gutsy and classy as one can get in publishing.

Will the Philadelphia Inquirer run the cover? The Delaware County Daily Times? Will it appear unpixelated on the local news?

Will President Obama condemn it as inflammatory and seek to arrest those responsible for it?

It remains to be seen.

Kudos Charlie Hebdo.
