French magazine defies Sharia censorship: Charlie Hebdo publishes #39;The Life of Mohammed #39;
Charlie Hebdo, a weekly satirical French magazine, has published a comic book biography of the Prophet Mohammed #39;s life titled #39;The Life of Mohammed #39; despite fears that publication could spark a fresh round of Muslim violence. Publisher Stephane Charbonnier defended the publication, insisting the aim is "not to ridicule the prophet" but to educate non-Muslims about the origins of Islamic beliefs. Muslims are forbidden from depicting their prophet Mohammed and in recent years Muslim groups around the world have sought to extend this prohibition to all non-Muslims, using a number of high-profile incidents to pressure Western governments and international bodies into imposing Muslim Sharia censorship on the entire world.
