Kudos to the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo that, despite the horrific terrorist attack on its office that killed ten of its journalists, as well as two policemen, will go to print next week with a run of 1 million copies -- a considerable jump from its usual 60,000.
"It's very hard. We are all suffering, with grief, with fear, but we will do it anyway because stupidity will not win," Pelloux told the AFP news agency.

Moi aussi, je suis Charlie.
I cannot comprehend the depth of such hatred.
So awful it's beyond understanding.
Et moi aussi, je suis Charlie. My heart aches.
Moi aussi, bien sûr.
Merci
Unbelievable and very sad. Je suis Charlie.

P.S. Glad you liked the chicken and thank you very much for pointing out the omission in the recipe. I really, really appreciate it and hope it didn't cause you too much inconvenience and delay. I replied the minute I saw your email, but I know it was frustrating for you.
The saddest day. I am at a loss for words.
And now the horrid news this morning
No words, except a vague memory of our naive' lives before 9.11.01
Mind-numbing and heart-wrenching.
Je suis Ahmed.

Absolutely, Deana. To die in defense of free speech -- even when that free speech is offensive to his own religion is certainly worth honoring.

And it will soon be sunset time in France.
It is chilling on so many levels.
Moi aussi.
Thanks Vicky.
I heard one Muslim comment that no matter how horrid and offensive he thought the magazine might have been, the senseless killings of innocents was a thousand times more horrid and offensive.
I agree. Je suis Charlie today.
if we let our lives be dictated by fear...we have lost....
All this hate has been going on for centuries. When will we ever learn. Such a tragic waste of life over a few words and pictures about a religion.
