Valextra 58 Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 (Bloomberg) -- Charlie Hebdo, the French satirical weekly attacked last month by two self-proclaimed Islamists, publishes a new issue on Wednesday under heavy police protection. The first edition to be published after the attacks in Denmark has on its cover a pack of dogs chasing a small mutt clenching a copy of the magazine in its jaws. The pursuers include Pope Francis, National Front leader Marine Le Pen and former French president Nicolas Sarkozy, as well as a black dog representing the Islamic State terror group ISIS. More than 2.5 million copies of the issue entitled “C’est Reparti!†or “Here We Go Again!†are slated to be published. The previous edition that came immediately after the Jan. 7 attack on the magazine’s offices in eastern Paris carried the Prophet Muhammed on its cover. The assault claimed 12 lives, including nine of the magazine’s journalists. The newest Charlie Hebdo will go on sale amid heightened security across Europe. A series of killings, death threats and tomb desecration on the continent has mobilized police forces and put the threat level at its maximum in cities like Paris, London and Brussels. More than 10,000 police and soldiers continue to be deployed in France to protect sensitive sites, including Jewish schools, tourist landmarks and French media. Heavily armed police and security forces were deployed at shopping malls after a Somalia-based terror group on Saturday threatened to attack such sites in the U.S., Canada, France and the U.K. France has maintained the highest level of protection in front of Charlie Hebdo’s temporary offices at the headquarters of Liberation newspaper near Paris’s Place de la Republique. Security forces have been deployed both inside and outside the premises.

Goosey 3,017 Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Is that Merkel as a dog? By coincidence I made a blog on ATRL called "Angela Merkel looks like a grumpy bulldog". I guess Charlie thinks the same "I am the world's greatest person that does not want to let people into the country."—US President Donald J.

Melech 9,900 Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Why do they have to cause controversy is my question? They don't really with that cover. The ones who are chasing the dog are the ones who causing controversy. Unless you are a supporter of ISIS or Le pen, there is no other way than agreeing with me now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you are a supporter of ISIS or Le pen, there is no other way than agreeing with me now I mean the biggest thing I hate about this cover is that it translates "Here we go again" which sounds ghastly and morbid considering the events which followed the Charlie Hebdo attack. It's gruesome and offputting Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's gruesome and offputting no, it's just that the translation is not 100% correct, it's 'here we go again' like in 'the magazine is back on track' more than 'here we go again to make fun of people' Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's gruesome and offputting How when it's not? It just says the truth. Nothing offensive about it unless you are as I said before you are ISIS supporter. (btw what events after the Charlie Hebdo attack? You talking about Denmark attack? It was the same as the attack on CH) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
