Mohammed, again

Ben Mathis-Lilley has a Slate article about the next issue of Charlie Hebdo:

A lawyer for Charlie Hebdo told a French radio station that this week’s issue (below), will include images of Mohammed. From Reuters:

"We will not give in. The spirit of 'I am Charlie' means the right to blaspheme," he said. “I am Charlie,” goofy cartoon Mohammed’s sign reads. “All is forgiven,” the headline says.
Representatives of the magazine said that a million issues will be made available, with plans to print as many as two million more if necessary. The publication’s typical print run is sixty thousand.

Meanwhile, French defense minister Jean-Yves Le Drian says ten thousand troops (photo) will be deployed inside the country by Tuesday night to protect Jewish schools and other potential terrorism targets. The country’s interior minister says nearly five thousand police officers will also be part of internal security operations. From Reuters again:

"The threats remain and we have to protect ourselves from them. It is an internal operation that will mobilize almost as many men as we have in our overseas operations," Le Drian told reporters after a cabinet meeting.

French authorities are also continuing to search for accomplices of last week’s attackers, reports say. Hayat Boumeddiene, the companion of supermarket killer Amedy Coulibaly, is thought to have fled to Syria before the attacks. The eighteen-year-old who was identified as a potential suspect in the aftermath of the Charlie Hebdo shootings, Mourad Hamyd, has been released without being charged. Classmates wrote on Twitter that he was in school at the time of the incident.
