Sorry to post this, but this really shosked me this morning and needed to share.

For those who haven't heard about this terrorist attack in the heart of Paris, you can read the details on the BBC site:
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-30710883

There hadn't been such an important terrorist attack for decades in France.
I am still under shock. My thoughts go to the families of the 12 victims.

I just want to thank all the courageous people and journalists that defend our freedom of expression every day in the world.

A very sad day indeed, Sabine.

My husband works for a French company here in London and says the mood has been very sombre there today. Shocking, terrible news.

Thoughts and prayers for everyone affected by this tragedy. We all know how it can not only affect those personally, but all across the country and the world emotionally.

Oh dear how sad!! Sending prayers to your whole country. I know that it feels like a bit of your innocence is gone now! At least that is how it felt when it happened here. It is hard to comprehend that they think they are doing this in the name of their GOD! Really do they think their God would want this to happen?? I don't understand it!! :(

Yes, I totally agree.
I am so sad to hear all of this, been following it since yesterday morning (Yes, I am a news junkie). It makes my heart hurt.
Some of the other cartoonist around the world have made some amazing tributes.

So many horrific happenings over the past few years. It is heart breaking. Praying for your nation, the leaders and especially the parents who have to explain these horrors to their children. I am so sorry for you and your family Sabine. Hugs.

O sO silly
Hubby and me were speechless when they showed over and over the news and footage on Japanese TV... I just wanted to cry. I still feel anger and incomprehension and sadness rushing back when I type this... Those fanatics turn the Coran sayings to whatever they please and it's something ugly. I'm scared to put on tv again... My heart goes to the family and colleagues...

Specially loves the cover designed by Dave Brown for The Independent: it is so reflecting the spirit of Charlie Hebdo.
