Summary
France commemorated the 10th anniversary of the Charlie Hebdo terror attack, with President Macron and Mayor Anne Hidalgo leading tributes at the former offices where 12 people were killed by al Qaeda-linked gunmen in January 2015.
The massacre, sparked by the magazine’s cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed, ignited global debates on free speech and religious tensions.
Survivors emphasized satire as a form of resilience, while public support for freedom of expression remains high.
The anniversary prompts reflection on France’s values and the enduring legacy of “Je Suis Charlie.”
I for one don’t enjoy people being executed for the crime of drawing mean pictures.
