Oh, and watch the video clip in the mini screen in the article that is provided that goes back to 2015 and the protests on the streets, even Bibby, Palestenian leaders were there...no Obama, no Biden no John Kerry was there as leaders walked arm in arm.

Satirical French newspaper Charlie Hebdo will republish Mohammed cartoons as terror trial kicks off
Satirical French newspaper Charlie Hebdo, the target of a 2015 massacre by Islamic extremists, will republish cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed to coincide with the start of a trial for the terror attack.
The 2015 attack left 12 people dead when gunman swarmed Charlie Hebdo's offices, killing 11 employees and a policeman nearby in Paris. In the following days, additional attacks left five more people dead until three attackers were killed in shootouts with police.
Fourteen people charged with providing assistance to the gunmen are scheduled to go on trial over the killings beginning on Wednesday. Charlie Hebdo had long published controversial cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed, which is believed to be why the newspaper was targeted.
