Charlie Hebdo Cover Is A Big French ‘F You’ To Paris Attacks

French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo has released its latest magazine following the terrorist attacks in Paris, the cover depicts a man covered in bullet holes drinking champagne.

Charlie Hebdo often provokes controversy among Muslims by publishing caricatures of the Prophet Mohammed; earlier this year it mocked the death of drowned three-year old Syrian boy and the publication was targeted by gunmen in January because of Hebdo’s portrayal of Mohammed.

This addition features a man riddled with bullet holes drinking champagne. “They have weapons,” the caption reads, adding below: “Screw them, we have champagne.”

Last Friday’s attacks in Paris left at least 129 people dead and hundreds injured.
