I'm also in favour that tomorrow, every major newspaper in Europe should print a joint Mohammed caricature/cartoon to show the fundies that freedom of speech cannot be gunned down.

Seems unproductive. an al-Baghdadi cartoon, maybe.

It would not only be unproductive, but counterproductive because it would allow the terrorists to justify their actions as defending Islam. Al-Baghdadi on the other hand would be a fine solution. He is widely hated in the Islamic world as well.

It would be more counterproductive than that time George W. Bush said that America was on a "crusade."

Some background on the Charlie Hedbo killers from the BBC. Sounds like they both had a long history of being involved with al-Qaeda and/or its affiliates. And being familiar to counter-terrorist authorities and law enforcement.
